The six-team tournament will be played with standard rules with two modifications: at the last Youth Olympics Lausanne 2020, teams played three 15-minute periods (instead of 20 at more senior levels) with no overtime, and minor penalties last for 90 seconds rather than the usual two minutes.

The six teams in each tournament are split into two groups of three.

Three points will be awarded for a win in regulation play, two for a win after a penalty shot shoot-out, and one for losing in a penalty shot shoot-out, with the top two teams per group qualify for the semi-finals.
