The top 2 teams from each prelimary group (shaded ones) advanced to Group D and played for the top-6 places; the bottom 2 teams from each prelimary group played in Group E to determine places 7-12.

Famous quotes containing the word play:
“If you like to make things out of wood, or sew, or dance, or style peoples hair, or dream up stories and act them out, or play the trumpet, or jump rope, or whatever you really love to do, and you love that in front of your children, thats going to be a far more important gift than anything you could ever give them wrapped up in a box with ribbons.”
—Fred M. Rogers (20th century)
