In Amsterdam, 9 men's and 9 women's teams are divided in pools of 5 and 4 and seeded automatically based on the 3x3 Federation Ranking at the cut-off date of 20 June.
All teams play every other in their respective pools. The best 4 in each group qualify for the quarter-finals.
In case teams are tied in the pools, the tie-breakers are as follows:
1. Most wins (or win ratio in case of unequal number of games in inter-pool comparison); 2. Head-to-head confrontation (only taking win/loss into account); 3. Most points scored in average (without considering winning scores of forfeits).
If teams are still tied after those three steps, the one(s) with the highest seeding win(s) the tie-breaker.
After the pools, the teams play knock-out games all the way to the final.
Pool games are played on Day 1 and Day 2 and the knock-out games on Day 2 during the afternoon.
The best 4 teams meaning the winners of each quarter-final (both men and women) qualify to the 2016 FIBA 3x3 European Championships in Bucharest from 2-4 September.
