Thrilling groups revealed for Superfinals and promotion battles.
The Official Draw for the Euro Beach Soccer League (EBSL) featuring Division A Superfinals, the women’s competitions, and Division B promotional finals has been completed, paving the way for an intense week of high-stakes beach soccer action in the picturesque coastal city of Viareggio, Italy, from 9–14 September. This year’s event follows a spectacular regular stage that spanned four European cities.
With the groups now set, anticipation is building for crowning new champions while underdogs aim to upset the established powers. The Men’s Superfinal battle for the EBSL crown features a stacked Group A with Italy, Belarus, Portugal, and France, promising fireworks from the outset, while Group B brings together Spain, Switzerland, Ukraine, and Denmark in what could be equally unpredictable clashes. Leading into this climax, Italy dominated the regular stage by claiming two stage titles—in Castellammare di Stabia and Chișinău. Spain and Belarus each secured one stage victory, in El Puerto de Santa María and Batumi respectively. Adding intrigue, Portugal enters as the defending 2024 Superfinal champions, while Italy aims to reclaim glory as the 2023 winners.
The Women’s Superfinal promises equal excitement, Portugal, Poland, and Switzerland will clash in Group A, setting up interesting battles, while Spain, Ukraine, and Italy chase continental glory from Group B in a group laden with offensive talent and defensive resilience. Poland arrives as the defending 2024 champions, having claimed the title in a breakthrough performance last year. Meanwhile, Spain, who dominated with back-to-back victories in 2023 and 2022, will be eager to reassert their supremacy, making this a wide-open contest for redemption and new milestones.
Over in the Division B Promotion Final, it’s all-or-nothing for Lithuania, Azerbaijan, and Belgium in Group A, as these emerging sides vie for a shot at promotion to the elite level next season, while Kazakhstan, Romania, and Malta will decide their fate in Group B through gritty, do-or-die encounters. This segment of the event highlights the depth of European beach soccer, where lower-division teams have the opportunity to earn their place among the top tiers, potentially shaking up the landscape for 2026 and injecting fresh competition into the top-tier league.
