Any team that does well in Beach Korfball wins points, which enable it to climb the IKF Beach Korfball World Ranking.

However, the ranking system will remain stable and unchanged until the qualification of the 2025 edition of The World Games has been decided to allow for a fair and predictable qualification system.

For the IKF Beach Korfball World Ranking, the total number of points of each country is determined by:
1. The basic points of each country, according to overall participation and development.
2. The points earned by a team from the IKF Beach Korfball Events according to its ranking on each official event and the specific weightings, over the last four-year period.*

The IKF Beach Korfball World Ranking will be calculated by:

WORLD RANKING POINTS = BASIC POINTS + TEAM POINTS FROM IKF BEACH KORFBALL EVENT
