The Beatavic national football team, nicknamed the Grizzlies, represents Beatavic in men's international football and is controlled by the Beatavic Football Association, the governing body for football in Beatavic. Beatavic's home ground is the Nije-Twilhaar Hengelaar Stadium in Zouterhem and their current head coach is Lawson Black.
The Beatavic national football team has qualified for the World Cup fifteen times. After decades of underperforming and never advancing beyond the round of 16, Beatavic reached the quarter-finals in the 2015 tournament, where they lost to New Elkland. After failing to qualify again in 2016, Beatavic secured a third-place victory over Janapa in the 2017 World Cup. Five years of failing to qualify for the World Cup followed, and Beatavic's team were widely written off as underdogs and a poorly managed team. However, the introduction of head coach Lawson Black in 2022 repositioned the team's standings in Nortua, and they clinched qualification rounds to appear in the 2023, subsequently winning each of their rounds to appear in the finals where they won their first ever title in a 4-3 victory over the favored Unified Seran team.
