For this tournament it was organized and familiarization period of two weeks between the two days of competition was established. The attack game underwent changes among which, more uniform occupation of the players space, time increment possession, a proportional increase in the number of passes; the attacks became more depth and hit three points were made. Similarly, a slight increase in the level of enjoyment and the degree of perceived competence was detected.
