The qualifiers were not coordinated by CONMEBOL at the time. The event was organised by Beach Soccer Worldwide (BSWW), under the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup Qualifier title.[4][5] CONMEBOL began recognising the tournaments in 2013, under the title South American Beach Soccer Championship, also acknowledging the 2006–11 events as historic editions of the championship.[6] CONMEBOL eventually began organising the qualifiers in 2017, under a new title.
A tournament-record nine teams, an increase of one team from the previous CONMEBOL qualifier, have confirmed their participation in the competition.[7]
The draw to decide the groups was conducted on June 29, 2011.
All match times were of local time in Rio de Janeiro, being Brasilia Time, (UTC-03:00).[8]
