  • 23 October 2021 to 6 March 2022: Preliminary Round
  • 31 March to 1 April 2022: Main Round
  • 2. to 3. April 2022: Final

The preliminary round will be played online in a knockout format in 1on1 mode. From the main round onwards, depending on the pandemic situation, an offline tournament is also possible.
