Champions Brazil, runners-up Argentina and third-placed Paraguay qualified for the 2016 FIFA Futsal World Cup as the CONMEBOL representatives, besides Colombia who qualified automatically as hosts.[3]
All ten CONMEBOL member national teams participated in the tournament.[4]
Note: Statistics start from 2012 when a separate qualifying tournament was held. Prior to 2012, the Copa América de Futsal was used as the CONMEBOL qualifying tournament for the FIFA Futsal World Cup.
The matches were played at the Polideportivo del Club Sol de América in Asunción.[2]
The draw of the tournament was held on 23 October 2015 during the CONMEBOL Futsal Committee meeting at the CONMEBOL headquarters in Luque, Paraguay.[4] The ten teams were drawn into two groups of five teams. Each group contained one team from each of the five "pairing pots": Argentina–Paraguay, Brazil–Colombia, Chile–Venezuela, Peru–Uruguay, Bolivia–Ecuador. The schedule of the tournament was announced on 8 January 2016.[5]
The top two teams of each group advanced to the semi-finals, while the remaining teams proceeded to the classification play-offs for fifth to tenth place. The teams were ranked according to points (3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss). If tied on points, tiebreakers were applied in the following order:[6]
- Head-to-head result in games between tied teams;
- Goal difference in all games;
- Goals scored in all games;
- Drawing of lots.
