Beach Soccer Worldwide

Beach Soccer Worldwide (BSWW) is the organisation responsible for the founding and growth of the association football-based sport of beach soccer. The founding partners of BSWW codified the rules of beach soccer in 1992, with BSWW as it is known today having been officially founded in late 2000 as a singular institution to develop the sport and organise international beach soccer competitions across the globe, primarily between national teams. The company is recognised as playing the biggest role in helping to establish the rules of beach soccer and to spread and evolve the sport around the world, as cited by FIFA, who took on governing body status of the sport from BSWW in 2005. Having established the sport's key regulations, FIFA acknowledged BSWW's framework, making their rules the official laws of beach soccer.

Beach Soccer Worldwide, with FIFA's assistance, continues to be the main organisation that arranges beach soccer tournaments and fosters the sport's development around the world, mainly in Europe, including the Euro Beach Soccer League, BSWW exhibition tour events and others, having involved over 110 national teams in the sport, and created new club competitions. Its founders also established the Beach Soccer World Championships; in 2005, BSWW created a partnership with FIFA to manage the tournament as the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup, the only major international beach soccer tournament that BSWW does not have a hand in organising, being entirely a FIFA competition.

Members of the organisation serve on FIFA's Beach Soccer Committee. The first international matches were played in 1993 for men and 2009 for women. As of July 2023, 193 men's/64 women's clubs and 101 men's/23 women's national teams were sorted in the world rankings.
