The 2012 Euro Beach Soccer League (EBSL) is an annual European competition in beach soccer, organised by Beach Soccer Worldwide (BSWW). The competitions allows national teams to compete in beach soccer in a league format over the summer months. Each season ends with a Superfinal, deciding the competition winner.

Contents

This season, there are eight teams participating in two divisions in each Stage (there are three Stages this year, as opposed to four) that will face each other in a round-robin system. Division A consists of the 8 top teams in Europe based on the BSWW European Ranking. Division B consists of 12 of the lower ranked teams and new entries to the competition. Each division has its own regulations and competition format. This was due to the European qualifying tournament for the 2013 FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup being held during the EBSL season.

Each team competes in two preliminary events to see their points obtained accumulated into an overall ranking that will determine the teams that qualify for the Superfinal. The top six teams of Division A (including the individual Stage winners) will play in the Superfinal in The Hague, the Netherlands from August 23 – 26. The top four teams of Division B (including the individual Stage winners) plus the worst team in Division A and the host team Netherlands will play in the Promotional Final to try to earn promotion to Division A for the 2013 season.

Beginning this season, the Power Horse energy drink company has signed on to become the new sponsor of the EBSL. The logo has been slightly modified to show this.

Eligible EBSL teams

The teams from Division A will compete for the Euro Beach Soccer League title while the teams from Division B will compete for promotion into next year's Division A. [1]
