Draw

The draw took place on 17 February 2022.[6]

Seeding

As the hosts, Netherlands and Spain play in their countries until the quarter-final. Therefore, they will be allocated in different sides of the pools but in the rows corresponding to their World Ranking. Based on that ranking, Netherlands will be positioned as A1 and Spain as C2. The top four teams according to the world ranking and qualified to the Event will be allocated in the first row as the headers of each pool.[7]
