The 2023 Copa América de Beach Soccer (known natively in Spanish as the Copa América de Futbol Playa) will be the fourth edition of the Copa América de Beach Soccer, the international beach soccer competition organised by CONMEBOL for the men's national teams of South America. It will be held in Rosario, Argentina between 11 and 19 March 2023.[1][2]

For the first time, the tournament will act as the South American qualification for the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup following CONMEBOL's decision to determine its representatives in the World Cup via the Copa America instead of its specific qualifying tournament that ran until 2021.[1] The top three teams will qualify for the 2023 FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup to be held in the United Arab Emirates.[3]

Paraguay are the defending champions.

Draw

The draw to split the ten teams into two groups of five took place at 12:00 PYST (UTC–3) on 16 February 2023 at CONMEBOL headquarters in Luque, Paraguay, under the following procedure:[7]

The teams were seeded based on their final ranking in the previous edition of the tournament in 2022 (shown in brackets).

Initially, two teams were automatically assigned to position one of the groups:

The remaining eight teams were split into four pots of two based on their seeding, in order from the highest seeds placed in Pot 1, down to the lowest seeds placed in Pot 4. From each pot, the first team drawn was placed into Group A and the second team drawn was placed into Group B.

Pot 1 Pot 2 Pot 3 Pot 4

  3. number of goals scored in the group matches between the teams concerned;
  4. goal difference in all group matches;
  5. number of goals scored in all group matches;
  6. fewest red cards;
  7. fewest yellow cards;
  8. drawing of lots by CONMEBOL.
