THE COMPETITION
The competition format will be organized according to the number of registrations, always aiming to provide the highest possible number of matches for all teams.
There will be a first phase consisting of groups of 4 teams, where all play against each other and the top-ranked teams in each group qualify. Qualified teams enter a second phase of single elimination to determine rankings from 1st to 8th place, while non-qualified teams enter a second group phase to determine the remaining rankings. Each team is guaranteed a minimum of 6 matches and a maximum of 8 matches.
The formation of groups, rankings, points, and match schedules for all teams will always be updated and available in the CASCAIS VOLLEY CUP APP
