The men'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 men'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) qualifying to the men's rugby sevens tournament.[2]

Argentina and Uruguay qualified for the 2023 Pan American Games as the Sudamérica Rugby representatives, besides Chile which qualified automatically as hosts.[4]
