The 2017 CONMEBOL South American Under-20 Beach Soccer Championship was the first edition of the South American Under-20 Beach Soccer Championship (known natively in Spanish as the Sudamericano Sub-20 Futbol Playa), an international youth beach soccer tournament for South American national teams of men under the age of 20.

The championship was organised by CONMEBOL, the governing body for football in South America, in cooperation with the local organisers, the Uruguayan Football Federation (AUF).[1] Confirmed in December 2015,[2] the event took place between 3 and 10 December in Montevideo, Uruguay.[3]

Brazil won the inaugural championship, beating Argentina on penalties in the final to become under-20 South American champions.[4]

Draw[edit]

The draw to split the ten teams into two groups of five took place on November 1 at 19:00 UYT (UTC–3) in Montevideo, Uruguay at the headquarters of the Uruguayan Football Association.[7]

Initially, two teams were automatically assigned to the groups:[8]

  • to Group A: as the host association,  Uruguay
  • to Group B: the highest ranked team in the last U-20 tournament,  Brazil

The remaining eight teams were split into four pots of two, shown in the below table.[8]

The teams were seeded based on how many points they gained in the last U-20 tournament, the Liga Sudamericana; those with the most points were placed in Pot 1 as the highest seeds, down to the lowest seeds in Pot 4 who collected the fewest points.[8] From each pot, one team was drawn into Group A and the other team was drawn into Group B.
