Each match won by a team gets one point and whoever accumulates the most points by the end of the tournament is the overall winner, while runner-up and third place are the second and third highest cumulative points, respectively.More information about general round-robin tournament format can be found here: https://ca.victorsport.com/badmintonaz/16910
