Format edit

The teams at each tournament were drawn into four pools. A round-robin was held for each pool, where each team played the others in their pool once. The top two teams from each pool advanced to the Cup quarterfinals to compete for tournament honours. The other teams from each pool went to the lower classification playoffs.

Teams edit

The fifteen national men's teams competing in Spain were:

Due to impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, several core teams originally scheduled to play had to be replaced in the draw before the competition began.[5]

  • New Zealand was eligible to play in Málaga and Seville but withdrew due to the challenges of COVID-19 travel logistics. Germany replaced them for both tournaments.[5]
  • Fiji and Samoa withdrew from both events in Spain following positive COVID-19 tests in their respective squads.[6][7][8] Jamaica replaced Samoa in Málaga and then replaced Fiji in Seville.[5]

Fiji and Samoa were not replaced in the schedules for Málaga and Seville, respectively. Their opponents advanced by walkover in those tournaments.[9][10] As such, Fiji finished equal-last in Málaga and received one point toward their season standings.[11] Samoa finished equal-last in Seville and received one point toward their season standings.[11]

Pool stage – Málaga edit

The first tournament was held at Estadio Ciudad in Málaga on 21–23 January 2022. South Africa won the event, defeating Argentina in the final by 24–17.[7]

All times in Central European Time (GMT+01:00). The pools were scheduled as follows:[12]

Key:   Team advanced to the quarterfinals

Pool A – Málaga edit

Fiji was included in the draw but did not compete in the tournament [9] so there were only three teams in Pool A. Fiji's matches were scored as 0–0 byes [5] and their opponents gained 3 points in the pool standings for each bye.[9]
