Women's football tournament at the 2023 Pan American Games
International sporting event
The Women's football tournament at the 2023 Pan American Games was held in Valparaíso and Viña del Mar from 22 October to 3 November 2023.
Qualification
A total of eight women's teams qualified to compete at the games, four CONMEBOL teams and four CONCACAF teams.[1] For CONMEBOL, the three teams ranked third to fifth at the 2022 Copa América Femenina qualified, while Chile automatically qualified as hosts; however, Venezuela declined to participate less than a month until the tournament due to lack of release of players by clubs, so Bolivia replaced the country.[2] For CONCACAF, the best team from each of the three zones (North American, Central American and Caribbean) at the 2022 CONCACAF Women's Championship qualified; however, Canada declined to participate due to scheduling issues, so Mexico qualified for the North American berth.[3]
Qualified teams
- [a] Mexico replaced Canada after the latter withdrew citing scheduling issues.[3]
- b Host nation Chile finished fifth, meaning sixth place Venezuela also qualified.
- c Bolivia replaced Venezuela after the latter withdrew.[4]
