Tie-Breaker Procedure:
-
If Two Teams Are Tied:
-
Look at who won when those teams played against each other (head-to-head result).
-
The team that won the match between them is ranked higher.

-
If Three Teams Are Tied:
-
Step 1: Look at how many matches each team won in total during pool play.
-
Team with the most wins is ranked higher.
-
-
Step 2: If teams are still tied, count the sets each team won and lost.
-
The team with the best set win-loss record (more sets won, fewer sets lost) is ranked higher.
-
-
Step 3: If the tie still isn’t broken, look at the total points each team won and lost across all matches.
-
The team with the best point difference (points scored minus points given up) is ranked higher.
-
-
Step 4: If the teams are still tied, flip a coin to decide who is ranked higher.

This system makes sure the rankings are fair by considering head-to-head results, sets won, and even points scored before resorting to a coin flip.
