Does anyone know when the Pan American Championships are taking place this year? I mean men and women? As far as they are this year (from my calculations and Wikipedia) they should be played, but nowhere have I found neither the dates nor the teams that are participating.

I was searching for the dates as well but the federation is still suspended.

Isn't the federation now separated into two?

There is a controversy about it, PATHF was splitted in 2018 into two federations

Well, we have the South & Central Championships about to begin tomorrow so the safe bet is, there will be no Pan American Champs this year   4 of 6 entered teams from this tournament will qualify for the 2021 WCh in Egypt.

 

The North & Carribean Championship will begin on March 31st and the winner of that will also qualify for World Champs.

Oh my mother On this continent, they always have to combine. Even Oceania is already playing together in the championship with Asia. Only America always has to combine.

I have also looked through all continental federations and are tempted to write to international, but they probably don't know either.

You're all watching the exciting European championship, but meanwhile in south america...  82-7

I watched some goals and I'm pretty sure the bolivian players don't have anyone above 170cm in the team. 

 

And since this is a round robin they still have to play Brazil...

 

 

Btw there was a big upset, Uruguay defeated Chile! Both will likely qualify anyway.
