To date, two iterations of a world cup in beach soccer have existed. The first was the Beach Soccer World Championships which ran annually from 1995 to 2004.[3] FIFA then became the governing body of the sport.[2] As a result, the World Championships were abolished and replaced by the second and current iteration, the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup, which began in 2005 and was also held annually; since 2009, it has been a biennial event.[4] Whilst being two independently governed competitions, both have occurred to determine the same outcome: the world champions in beach soccer.[5]

Four nations have been crowned world champions of the 22 editions to date.[4] By far the most successful team is Brazil (also current champions) who have historically dominated the title, winning 15; they and Portugal are the only two nations to win in both eras of the sport's world cup. The other victors are Russia[RFU] and France.

The following lists a summary of the results of each world cup and associated statistics; the latter combines the data of all the editions of both iterations.

Appearances and performance edit

Main article: FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup records and statistics

The following lists the teams who have appeared in at least one tournament, in order from the most appearances down to the least, and that nation's best performance.

As of the 2021 edition, 47 countries have participated over the 21 tournaments. However, only one country has participated in all the events which is Brazil. European teams have dominated in appearances by continent, since 15 of the 47 countries have been from Europe, double than that of any other.

Only eight countries who appeared in an edition of the World Championships have failed to reappear in a FIFA World Cup. Peru (5) have appeared in the most events without any one of those being under FIFA's control. Senegal (8) have appeared in the most FIFA tournaments without having ever once appeared in the World Championships.

Notes edit

  1. ^
    At the 2021 edition, in accordance with a ban by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) and a decision by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), the team from Russia was not permitted to use the Russian name, flag, or anthem; it participated in the World Cup as "the team of the Russian Football Union (RFU)", and used the flag of the Russian Olympic Committee.[26] For the purpose of continuity in this article, the results of the RFU team in 2021 are considered as de facto results of the Russian national team.
