The first matches start on Friday, 23 May.

In Group A, USA play Mozambique, Nepal take on Germany and Norway will face Vanuatu.

In Group B, hosts Jersey will face Singapore while tournament favourites Afghanistan take on Japan. Also in this group Bahamas play Botswana on the tournament's opening day.
