The games were held in two subgroups in a circular system on two platforms at once. This year the teams were almost equal in strength, however, in any competition there are winners.

The fight for the 1st place was serious - the title of the champion of the tournament was disputed by APK’s team and Kyrgyz ethnocultural association Asaba. None of the teams wanted to give in, however, APK’s team won the victory by just one point. This is the second victory of the national team. Kyrgyz ECA’s team won the silver medal.

Also this year, the organizers have established two additional categories. Thus, according to the panel of judges headed by national judge Yelena Miroshnichenko, Azamat Amangeldy, a player of the Kyrgyz national team, became "Best Binder", and Andrey Klimov, captain of the APK’s national team, became "Best Forwarder".
