The celebration of the 2012 Men's Cup was originally designed to be played in Santiago de Chile, but in the end it was changed to be played in November in the Brazilian city of Recife. One month before the competition, the Catalan Federation announced that the team couldn't play in the Cup because the Catalan government decided not to support the team economically, and at the same time, the Argentinian Federation also announced that they won't be playing either as they were having internal problems. Seeing that the two bigger countries were not coming to the event, the 2012 Men's Cup was disbanded.

The Uruguayan city of Montevideo was selected as host for the 2013 Woman's Cup, but the celebration of that event was not possible for the same problems.
