Brackets
Brackets can be found here. Check the single elimination qualification brackets to see whether your team needs to start playing in round 1 or round 2 of qualifying. Check the provisional double elimination brackets to see what the double elimination bracket will look like for the main tournament, featuring the top 16 seeds and 16 teams from qualification. Please note that the double elimination bracket currently shows the brackets as if all of seeds 17-32 will make it through qualifying, and these will be updated to reflect the true set of qualified teams once qualification is over.
