COMPETITION SYSTEM

· Two teams access the Final Stage directly (host France and title holder Yugoslavia), and fourteen more join them after a preliminary Qualifying Stage.

· The sixteen participating teams are divided in 4 groups of 4 teams each playing a round robin. In case that two or more teams finish level on points, their position is decided by their basket average.

· The top three teams in each group advance to a classification round, divided in 2 groups of 6 teams each playing a round robin. The individual scores during the preliminary round are accumulated in this new group stage.

· The top four teams in the two classification round groups advance to the quarterfinals (played as an X-pairing). The four winners after this knock-out round qualify for the semifinals (places 1-4).

· The two winners after the semifinals qualify for the final, whereas the two losers play a consolation final for the bronze medal.
