- Since the total number of competitors of the tournament is not a power of 2, a bye was given to team Egypt causing them to advance automatically to the classification semifinals. Also, the Ireland national team was named as the last placers (23rd) of the tournament due to the loss they've got and to the bye they earned from Team Iraq.
