The qualifiers were not coordinated by CONMEBOL at the time. The event was organised by Beach Soccer Worldwide (BSWW), under the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup Qualifier title.[1][2] CONMEBOL began recognising the tournaments in 2013, under the title South American Beach Soccer Championship, also acknowledging the 2006–11 events as historic editions of the championship.[3] CONMEBOL eventually began organising the qualifiers in 2017, under a new title.

Brazil won the championship, with the hosts Uruguay taking 2nd place. Third place Argentina scraped through to move on to play in the 2009 FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup in Dubai, United Arab Emirates along with the two finalists.
