The 2023 South American U-17 Championship was the 19th edition of the South American U-17 Championship (Spanish : CONMEBOL Sudamericano Sub-17), the biennial international youth football championship organized by CONMEBOL for the men's under-17 national teams of South America. It was held in Ecuador between 30 March and 23 April 2023. [1] [2] This was the first U-17 championship in four years due to the COVID-19 pandemic forcing CONMEBOL to cancel the tournament in 2021. [3]

Like previous editions, the tournament served as the CONMEBOL qualifiers for the FIFA U-17 World Cup. The top four teams of the tournament qualified for the 2023 FIFA U-17 World Cup in Indonesia as the CONMEBOL representatives. [4] Brazil won their thirteenth South American U-17 title after finishing first in the final stage's group and a spot at the World Cup. They were joined by the other top four teams in Ecuador, Argentina and Venezuela. [5]

All ten CONMEBOL member national teams were eligible to enter the tournament.

Venues

Ecuador was originally chosen to host the 2021 South American U-17 Championship. [6] Although the tournament was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Ecuador maintained its right to hold the South American U-17 Championship in 2023. [1] It was the fourth time that Ecuador hosted the tournament, having previously done so in 1988 (under-16 edition), 2007 and 2011.

Guayaquil and Quito were selected as host cities. [7] Originally, Guayaquil would host the first stage matches in two venues, the Christian Benítez Betancourt and George Capwell stadiums. [8] [9] Subsequently, the Estadio Monumental Isidro Romero Carbo was added as a venue to host four matches of Group A. [10] The matches in the final stage were played in Quito in two venues, the Olímpico Atahualpa and Rodrigo Paz Delgado stadiums. [8] [9]
