Qualifications
When the number of participants was determined by region, a differentiated qualification system was put in place.
For the North American contestant, a qualifying tournament will be set up by the MOF. The nations with the best rank will have a better place in the pots. For the others parts of the world, the highest ranking nations will be able to participate. In order to increase the rank of the contestants, the 2020 Occitanian Checkers League is organized before the tournament to coordinate numerous friendly matches.
Asia and Pacific regions
The nation with the highest rank will qualify for the tournament.
Europe
The three European teams with the three best ranks will be qualified.
North America
For the North American contestant, a qualifying tournament will be set up by the MOF. Five teams will be qualified.
Rest of the world
