The 2022 South American Under-20 Women's Football Championship was the 10th edition of the South American Under-20 Women's Football Championship (Spanish: CONMEBOL Sudamericano Femenino Sub-20), the biennial international youth football championship organised by CONMEBOL for the women's under-20 national teams of South America. It was held in La Calera, Chile from 6 to 24 April 2022.[1][2]
The top two teams of the tournament qualified for the 2022 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup in Costa Rica as the CONMEBOL representatives.
Brazil were the defending champions having won the title in 2018 since the final stage of the 2020 edition ended up being cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic and consequently there was no champion for that year. Brazil successfully retained their title and won their ninth in a row after finish first in the final stage and alongside the runners-up Colombia qualified for the 2022 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup.[3]
All ten CONMEBOL member national teams are eligible to enter the tournament.

Draw
The draw was held on 11 March 2022, 12:00 PYST (UTC−3), at the CONMEBOL headquarters in Luque, Paraguay.[5] The hosts Chile and the title holders Brazil were seeded and assigned to the head of the groups A and B respectively. The remaining eight teams were split into four "pairing pots" (Paraguay-Colombia, Venezuela-Ecuador, Argentina-Uruguay, Peru-Bolivia) based on the final placement they reached in the 2018 edition of the tournament (shown in brackets).[5]
| Pot 1 | Pot 2 | Pot 3 | Pot 4 |

From each pot, the first team drawn was placed into Group A and the second team drawn was placed into Group B. In both groups, teams from pot 1 were allocated in position 2, teams from pot 2 in position 3, teams from pot 3 in position 4 and teams from pot 4 in position 5.[6]
