Greece, the host of the Piraeus Olympic Qualifiers, will play against the Dominican Republic and Egypt in the Group Stage of the tournament. Slovenia, Croatia and New Zealand will compete in the other Group.
Two teams from each Group advance to the semifinals and the winners from that knockout phase will face each other in the Final that will determine which team will book a ticket to the Olympic Games.
