With Portugal 2015 already in the horizon, the process begins to decide the venue of the ninth edition of the sport’s biggest showpiece
FIFA has opened the bidding process for the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup, together with seven more competitions. The 209 member associations have been invited to submit their interest.
The venue for the ninth edition of the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup will then be known soon, with the eight, to take place in Portugal in 2015, already in the horizon.
The timeline requires member associations to declare their interest in hosting this competition by 15 April 2014 and they will have to submit their definitive bids including all signed bidding and hosting documents by 1 October 2014. The host will be appointed by the Executive Committee at its meeting in December 2014.
FIFA said the venue’s location “should reflect the sun, sea and sand of the Copacabana beach, the birthplace of beach soccer”.
