Deploy Play! 2.2.x on java based shared hosting

Currently, I'm planning to deploy my Play! 2.2.x app on a shared hosting service. Since it's cheaper than to deploy it on cloud like heroku.

I don't have any experience on deploying my app on java shared hosting, like tomcat and jetty. However, I do know that for tomcat and jetty, I need to convert my app into war file. Also, I know that Play! 2.2.x doesn't support war file deployment.

So, does that mean I couldn't deploy my app on shared hosting, like http://www.jvmhost.com/? Or even if I could, would the tomcat or jetty be useless?
