The 2022 Finals will see 16 nations compete in groups based in each of the four cities from September 14-18 with eight teams going forward to the finals from November 23-27 in a fifth city which is yet to be announced.

Croatia, who gets an automatic place as last year’s finalist, will be joined by the 12 winning nations from the qualifiers held earlier this month and wild cards Britain and Canada.

The ITF awarded the wild card spot to Canada in place of Serbia who qualified automatically after Russia was banned.
