Women's rugby sevens in South America


The following are details of all regional women's international championships played in South America, listed chronologically with the earliest first, with all result details, where known.
The South American Women's Sevens, now also known as the CONSUR Women's Sevens, is the regional championship for women's international rugby sevens in South America. The tournament is held over two days, typically on a weekend. It is sanctioned and sponsored by CONSUR, the Confederación Sudamericana de Rugby, which is the rugby union governing body for the region.
The South America Women's Sevens Championship was first held in Venezuela in 2004. Since then, the regional 7s championships have periodically served as pre-qualifying competitions for the Rugby World Cup Sevens, the Pan American Games and the Olympic Games.
Rugby sevens — also known as 7-a-side, or 7s — is a short form of the sport of rugby union that was first played in 1883. The first internationals took place in 1973. As women's rugby union developed in the 1960s and 1970s the format became very popular as it allowed games, and entire leagues, to be developed in countries even when player numbers were small, and it remains the main form the women's game is played in most parts of the world.
However, although the first women's international rugby union 15-a-side test match took place in 1982, it was not until 1997 before the first women's international 7s tournaments were played, when the 1997 Hong Kong Sevens included a women's tournament for the first time. Over the next decade the number of tournaments grew, with almost every region developing regular championship competitions. This reached its zenith with 2009's inaugural women's tournament for the Rugby World Cup Sevens, shortly followed by the announcement that women's rugby sevens will be included in the Olympics from 2016.
