For Amajita, they will head into the tournament with confidence after lifting their first continental title over a week ago in Egypt.

The Raymond Mdaka-coached team has been given United States of America from Pot 1, France in Pot 2 and the lowest-ranked team at the tournament, New Caledonia.

What will give Amajita hope is that besides the top two going through, the four best third-placed teams from the six groups will also advance.

There are 24 countries that have qualified.

Group A has Chile, New Zealand, Japan, and Egypt, Group B features South Korea, Ukraine, Paraguay, and Panama, while in Group C there is Brazil, Mexico, Morocco, and Spain.
