The 2017 CONMEBOL qualifiers for the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup, (natively in Spanish: Eliminatorias CONMEBOL al Mundial de la FIFA de Fútbol Playa Asunción 2017)[1] was the seventh edition of the Beach Soccer World Cup qualification championship contested by the men's national teams of South America to determine the best beach soccer nation on the continent, organised by CONMEBOL. The tournament acted as a qualifying event to the 2017 FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup, with the top three finishing nations progressing to the finals in the Bahamas.[2]

The competition took place from 5 to 12 February 2017 in Lambaré, Gran Asunción, Paraguay, with ten nations taking part.[3] Brazil were the defending champions.

Participating teams and draw

The following ten teams entered the tournament.

The draw of the tournament was held on 20 January 2017, 12:00 UTC−3, at the CONMEBOL headquarters in Luque, Paraguay.[4] The ten teams were drawn into two groups of five teams.[5] The teams were seeded according to their results in the 2015 CONMEBOL Beach Soccer Championship.

Pot 1 Pot 2 Pot 3 Pot 4 Pot 5
