The Concacaf Beach Soccer Championship 2019 kicks off tomorrow in Puerto Vallarta with 16 teams vying for one of the two tickets to the World Cup
The road to the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup begins tomorrow for the 16 teams taking part in the Concacaf Beach Soccer Championship 2019, which takes place between the 13th and 19th of May in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
Stakes are high in the Mexican resort, as only two spots at the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup are available for Concacaf contenders. Only the best two teams in the region will secure a berth in Paraguay, and makes the competition in Puerto Vallarta a truly demanding fight.
