The 2016 South American Under-17 Women's Football Championship was the fifth edition of the South American Under-17 Women's Football Championship, the biennial international youth football championship organised by the CONMEBOL for the women's under-17 national teams of South America. The tournament was held in Barquisimeto, Venezuela between 1 and 20 March 2016.[1]

Same as previous editions, the tournament acted as the CONMEBOL qualifiers for the FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup. The top three teams of the tournament qualified for the 2016 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup in Jordan as the CONMEBOL representatives.[2]

Venezuela were crowned champions for the second consecutive tournament, and qualified for the World Cup together with runners-up Brazil and third place Paraguay.[3]

Squads

Players born on or after 1 January 1999 were eligible to compete in the tournament. Each team could register a maximum of 22 players (three of whom must be goalkeepers).[4]

First stage

The draw of the tournament was held on 27 January 2016 at the CONMEBOL Headquarters in Luque, Paraguay.[5] The ten teams were drawn into two groups of five teams. Each group contained one team from each of the five "pairing pots": Venezuela–Brazil, Colombia–Paraguay, Argentina–Uruguay, Bolivia–Chile, Ecuador–Peru. The schedule of the tournament was announced on 18 February 2016.[6]

The top two teams of each group advanced to the final stage. The teams were ranked according to

points (3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss). If tied on points, tiebreakers would be applied in the following order:[4]

  1. Goal difference in all games;
  2. Goals scored in all games;
  3. Head-to-head result in games between tied teams;
  4. Penalty shoot-out if only two teams are tied on points and they are playing last game of the group
  5. Drawing of lots.

All times were local, VET (UTC−4:30).
