The first edition of the World Beach Games, which will be held in San Diego (California, USA) between 9th and 14th of October, is rapidly approaching, and the time for the teams to earn their berth there is almost upon us.
Beach Soccer Worldwide, in accordance with the World Beach Games Organizing Committee, has stablished a qualifying format for all the different confederations, with a play-off knockout system.
Between the 9th and 12th of May, Sports Complex Futbol Salou (Tarragona, Spain) will host the first of the continental qualifiers both in men's and women's division. In the men's pool, the best 16 teams in the European rankings will have the chance to fight for one of the four (or even 5*) spots available in San Diego as the Old Continent's representatives.
At the same time, six Women's teams will vie for one of the two places in the World Beach Games 2019, meaning that only the two finalists of the World Beach Games Qualifier Salou play-offs will travel to San Diego.
The next continental qualifiers to the World Beach Games San Diego 2019 will be released soon.
* The 5th best-ranked team and the 3rd best-ranked CONMEBOL team will vie for one berth.
