The organizing committee of ESWC announces the draw pools for the ESWC Grand Final 2008.

ESWC Grand Final 2008 is just around the corner. Today the organizing committee of ESWC has released the draw pools, as the previous years, consist of a total of four pools. The teams will be divided in eight groups of five teams each. Teams finishing first and second in each group will advance to the second group stage.
Each pool will be randomly composed by one from each seed pool and two to three for the challenger’s pool, depending on the tournament. A group cannot consist of more than one team from one nationality, should a team be drawn into a group with a team from the same nationality, the team is put aside and another participant will be drawn.

The teams have been seeded by their previous results in ESWC, ESWC Masters, national finals and other major competitions.
