The 2011 CONCACAF Beach Soccer Championship was a continental beach soccer tournament, which took place between December 1 and December 5, 2010, in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, for the third time in a row. Organizers had hoped to extend the number of teams participating from six to eight after seeing newcomers Bahamas compete in the previous competition, and this indeed materialized with Jamaica returning after four years and Guatemala joining the tournament. This meant that the competition took place between two groups of four in a round-robin format, with the top two teams in each group qualifying to the knockout stage.〔http://www.beachsoccer.com/news/28〕 Only the two finalists would be the nations to progress to play in the 2011 FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup the following year, these nations being hosts Mexico, and El Salvador, seeing last years qualifying nation Costa Rica, lose out on a spot at the world cup.〔http://www.beachsoccer.com/news/171〕 All matches took place at Unidad Deportiva Municipal Agustín Flores Contreras in Puerto Vallarta.〔http://events.hotelcasavelas.com/event/fifa-beach-soccer-world-cup-2011-concacaf-qualifier-puerto-vallarta/〕 ==Participating teams== Eight teams entered the tournament, the highest ever amount, with Guatemala being newcomers. Jamaica returned to the tournament after a four-year absence.
