System[edit]

The tournament would be disputed in a double round-robin format, with the team with the most points winning the title.[1][2]

Due to the unbalanced amount of matches that the remaining teams had, for title awarding purposes, it was decided that the team with less points lost would win the title and that the matches against the five teams that had abandoned the championship wouldn't be annulled.
