2016 Euro Winners Cup

The Euro Winners Cup, is an annual continental club beach soccer competition organised by Beach Soccer Worldwide (BSWW) and contested by top-division European clubs. It is one of the most prestigious tournaments in the world and the most prestigious club competition in European beach soccer, bringing together the national league champion (and, for some nations, one or more runners-up) of many domestic beach soccer leagues across Europe.

It is a mirror of the UEFA Champions League in association football.
