ESWC have released further information regarding the Women's Finals of the tournament held in Paris, France at the Paris Games Week 2016. Ten female teams will butt heads in hopes of securing first place at the $15,000 prize pool tournament. The prize pool distribution is as follows:

1st place - $7,000
2nd place - $4,000
