The Competitions
The Euro Winners Cup brings together the best teams from across Europe, in most cases the winners of their national beach soccer leagues, and sets them against each other to see who is the best of the best.
The current holders of the European crown are SC Braga (POR), who beat BSC Kristall (RUS) in the 2018 final.
The Euro Winners Challenge (previously known as the Nazaré Beach Soccer Cup) acts as an alternative route to Euro Winners Cup, for those teams that didn’t qualify through their national leagues. Eight teams (the group winners) will join the 36 already qualified for the Euro Winners Cup.
The Women’s Euro Winners Cup returns for it’s fourth edition and, like the men’s, has also seen participation increase, as WFC Zvezda (RUS) look to retain their hard-won crown for a second year running. But with 21 of Europe’s best women’s clubs seeking the same prize, victory will not be easy.
