Beach Soccer

Beach soccer is a variant of association football played on a sand pitch, typically 5-a-side, with no offside rule, shorter periods, and rules favoring flashy skills like bicycle kicks and overhead volleys due to the ball's different bounce on sand. It is governed internationally by FIFA, which runs the Beach Soccer World Cup, and is especially popular in Brazil, where it originated on the beaches of Rio de Janeiro. Its appeal lies in the acrobatic, high-scoring style of play suited to the soft, forgiving sand surface.
