The 2017 South American Rugby Championship (Confederación Sudamericana de Rugby (CONSUR) Championship) Division A was the third edition of second level of the South American Rugby Championship. The tournament was played in a round-robin format, with each team playing each other once. The two first teams would win the right to compete in the top level tournament of South American Rugby Championship, called South America Rugby Cup, and the winner would face the loser of the two-game-series between USA and Canada as round 4 of the Americas qualification for the 2019 Rugby World Cup in Japan.[1]
