The format for the Feb. 15 event consists of a round-robin mini-tournament with four 12-minute games.  The matchups are as follows:

Game 1: USA Stars vs. World
Game 2: USA Stripes vs. winning team of Game 1
Game 3: USA Stripes vs. losing team of Game 1
Game 4: Championship (top two teams from round-robin play)

If all three teams finish 1-1 after the round-robin games, the first tiebreaker will be point differential across each team’s two games.
