As the top three teams, Brazil, Uruguay, and Colombia secured a spot for their nations in Santiago this October in the men’s football competition. Five other teams; the host nation, Chile; the United States; Honduras; the Dominican Republic; and Mexico; had already qualified for the Games, completing the finalised competition field.
US soccer, which will be taking part in both, men’s and women’s categories highlights the news. The women’s under-19 U.S. national team will participate in the upcoming edition of the event for the first time since 2007. While there were no age limits for the women’s event, there is one for the men, which is an under-22 competition.
The group’s victory in the 2022 CONCACAF W Championship led them to advance to the tournament. There was a lot of action on the field, from the U20 CONMEBOL Championships in Colombia to the tournament’s championship game on February 12 that included the top two teams in Brazil and Uruguay competing for the South American title.
Meanwhile, Canada Soccer will not send a women’s team to the Pan American Games in Santiago, in 2023. Canadian women played in five consecutive Pan American Games after women’s football was added in 1999. The team also didn’t take part in the 2019 edition in Lima due to the FIFA Women’s World Cup duties. The women’s football team includes Chile (host nation), United States, Jamaica, Costa Rica, Canada, Argentina, Paraguay and Venezuela.
