Just like last year, the FFWS Global Finals 2024 will start with the League stage that runs for two weekends, followed by two days of Point Rush, and then closed with one day of Grand Finals.

At the end of the stage, all teams will be ranked based on total points gained, and the top 12 teams will qualify for Points Rush and Grand Finals, while the bottom six teams will be eliminated.

At Point Rush Stage, 12 teams will compete in two matchdays for a total of 12 matches (six matches a day). There will be no team eliminated in this stage, but each team will receive Headstart Points for the Grand Finals after each day based on their daily standings.

At the Grand Finals, 12 teams with their Headstart Points, will have to compete for the last six matches and determine who will be crowned as the champion of FFWS Global Finals 2024, and a portion of the total prize pool that is yet to be announced.
