France won the final over defending champions England. For the first time, Canada did not reach the final, eventually finishing in fifth place.

The first phase of the tournament was a group stage in which the twelve invited teams were divided into three groups of four teams. Each group was a round-robin of six games, where each team played one match against each of the other teams in the same group. The group stage was followed by a single "finals day" in which six games involving all twelve teams were played to determine the tournament's final standings, with the matchups being determined as follows:[2]

1st place match: Winners of Groups A and B.
3rd place match: Winner of Group C and best runner-up from Groups A and B.
5th place match: Runner-up in Group C and second-best runner-up from Groups A and B.
7th place match: Third-place teams in Groups A and B.
9th place match: Third-place team in Group C and best fourth-place team from Groups A and B.
11th place match: Fourth-place team in Group C and second-best fourth-place team from Groups A and B.

Games were played in 4 host stadiums in 3 cities.
