Pools composition

The drawing of lots was combined with a seeding of National Federations and performed as follows:

1. The 4 organizers were seeded in Preliminary pools. Belgium in Pool A, Italy in Pool B, Germany in Pool C and Estonia in Pool D.
2. The finalists from the previous edition were drawn in different Preliminary pools, meaning that Italy could not be paired with Serbia.
3. The organizers could select one team to join their pools, as a result, Slovenia joined Belgium in Pool A, Romania joined Italy in Pool B, Azerbaijan joined Germany in Pool C and Finland joined Estonia in Pool D.
4. According to the CEV National Team ranking list, the 16 remaining teams were seeded by descending order in a number of cups that equals the number of Preliminary pools.
