The tournament served as a qualifier for the 2000 Summer Olympics. [2]

Australia won the tournament for the first time, defeating New Zealand in the three–game series, 3–0. [3] However, as Australia had already qualified for the Summer Olympics as the host nation, the entry quota was added to the Olympic Qualification Tournament.
