There were 32 teams each for women and men. In eight preliminary round groups, four teams each played “everyone against everyone” to get into the knockout round. There were two points for a win and one point for a loss. In the event of a tie, the ball point quotient counted. The three best teams from each group reached the knockout round, with the group winners qualifying directly for the round of 16. In the simple knockout system it went on until the final. Prize money of 100,000 euros was announced for men and women.

In Germany, Sport1 had the broadcasting rights. The station showed some quarter-finals on free TV . Further games of the quarter-finals as well as the semi-finals and final could be seen either in the live stream on sport1.de or on the pay-TV channel Sport1 + . There was also a live stream from the organizer, but due to geo-blocking it could only be seen in countries in which no TV rights were sold.
