The women's tournament of the rugby sevens at the 2022 South American Games was held from 7 to 9 October 2022 at the Estadio Héroes de Curupayty in Luque, Paraguay, a sub-venue outside Asunción.[1] It was the third edition of the rugby sevens women's tournament at the South American Games since its first appearance in Santiago 2014.

The tournament served as qualifier for the 2023 Pan American Games, with the top two teams (excluding Chile and Brazil) qualifying to the women's rugby sevens tournament.[2]

The two-times defending champions Brazil successfully retained their title by winning the gold medal and thus their third South American Games women's rugby sevens title after beating the hosts Paraguay 17–5 in the final. Colombia beat Argentina with a 14–7 score to win the bronze medal.[3]

Paraguay and Colombia qualified for the 2023 Pan American Games as the Sudamérica Rugby representatives,[4] besides Chile which qualified automatically as hosts and Brazil which had previously qualified via the 2022 Sudamérica Rugby Women's Sevens.[5]

Schedule[edit]

The tournament was held over a 3-day period, from 7 to 9 October.[6]
