The world cup is played on a home-and-away basis. During the qualification phase, countries play against each other on a knockout basis to determine who advances to the next round. In case of ties during this phase, there is a penalty shoot-out implemented to resolve these matches. If still tied, the higher-ranked team goes through.

Who are the members of the beach soccer World Cup?

The FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup is an international beach soccer competition in which the men's national teams of FIFA's member organizations compete. The tournament consists of two stages: a group stage, where the eight best countries qualify, and a knockout stage, where the semi-finals and finals are played.

All nations that have qualified for at least one World Cup are allowed to enter the event. Nations may only enter a maximum of three teams per match. If a nation enters four teams, they must do so by entering two pairs of players. The five teams that do not qualify automatically or through regional qualification tournaments can also enter the Olympic Qualifying Tournament. The next available spot at the Olympics will be awarded to the country who finishes highest in a series of play-off matches between November 2015 and March 2016.

At the end of the group stage, the top four countries advance to the knockout stage. In this stage, each quarter-final is a single tie played over two legs, with each team playing one leg. The team that scores more goals on aggregate wins the match. If the aggregate score is level after both legs have been played then the away goal rule applies. This means that if you score first at home, you win by default - you do not need to score again.
