Commissioner Aurelio Eslawan said the tournament follows a single round robin format in the elimination, with the top two teams advancing into the crossover semis. The winners will then figure in a sudden-death title showdown.

As agreed earlier, the cash prizes will be donated to a charitable institution of the winners’ choice. Also, proceeds of the event will be handed out to the less fortunate Cebuanos.
