The Games will be attended by 192 players – 16 teams, 8 of each sex, from 10 countries and the competitions will be held for three days from June 20 at the Beach Sports Center in Tarnow. The competition will end with the awarding of medals to the athletes – medals are provided for the top three male and female teams.[2] The stands of the arena during the games will accommodate 2,100 spectators. Beach soccer specialists will also compete at this facility.
