The 2023 South American Beach Soccer Evolution League (officially, CONMEBOL Liga Evolución de Fútbol Playa (CONMEBOL Beach Soccer Evolution League)) is the fifth edition of the South American Beach Soccer League, a continental league competition for South American men's national beach soccer teams. It was held from 11 October to 19 November 2023 in its regular season (zones round) with the finals being held on 27 and 28 April 2024.
Organised by the governing body for South American football, CONMEBOL, as part of its Development Department's Evolution Program, all ten members of the continental confederation took part, with both senior and under 20s national teams participating in the league events.[1]
The teams are first divided into two geographically based zones (North and South) to compete in a round robin tournament against other members of their own zone during the regular season; the points earned by both the senior and under 20s teams are combined. The winners of each zone then proceed to face each other in the finals to contest the title.[1]
Format
The league operated under the same format established for the inaugural season.[1]
