Just six nations took part as in 2008, compared to the usual eight, and the teams were not the top-ranked nations from the preceding Euro Beach Soccer League season as in the past but a mix of teams from the divisions as listed below. The competition started with a round-robin ground stage for only the third time, instead of a straight knock-out tournament, with the top two nations from the groups competing in a final match for the title, the others in the respective positions in their groups playing for third and fifth place in classifying matches to determine the final standings.http://www.beachsoccer.com/news/baku-to-host-the-euro-beach-soccer-cup-2014 Baku to host the Euro Beach Soccer Cup 2014 beachsoccer.com 7 August 2014 Spain won the championship for the fourth time, their third win in their last five appearances and their fourth title overall.http://www.beachsoccer.com/news/spain-claims-fourth-euro-beach-soccer-cup Spain claims fourth Euro Beach Soccer Cup! beachsoccer.com 31 August 2014 Participating teams The teams were announced on August 7.
