There have been some minor changes in the competition format for the W45/50/55 age group, as Russian team Maximum from Moscow have moved down from the W50 age category to W45 after adding a younger player.
The format of the W45/50/55 competition will largely remain the same, with two teams of W45, four teams of W50 and one team of W55 divided into two groups, where they will play in a round robin format. The results of games between different age categories will count towards the final standings in all age categories.
Four teams in the W50 category will compete in semifinals and finals, as planned before. However, since there are now multiple teams in the W45 category, a final will also be held.
Group A will feature Maximum (W45), Estonia (W50) and Kamane LT – Augma (W50). Meanwhile, BC Svaja (W45), Spartak (W50), Ladies Germany (W50) and Kamane (W55) will play in Group B.
Furthermore, to the attention of all teams, some changes have been made in the championship schedule due to the late arrival and early departure of some teams. ESBA and the LOC advise teams to double check their scheduled game times.
