The respective captains of Team Europe and Team USA will select five players to compete in the tournament.
Day one of the Mosconi Cup will consist of two doubles matches and one singles match, while days two and three have two doubles and three singles.
Should the final day be required, five matches of singles will be played to decide the winner.
All matches are played as best of nine frames.
But in a slight twist to the usual rules, captains will not only lead their teams, but also compete on the table themselves – this has not happened since 2004.
