The official site is depressing.

Just a fun fact. Graziela Paulino (who won the women's individual recurve in archery) is indigenous.   In 2016, the athlete from Amazon tried to be the first indigenous person to represent B

Yeah, our continent really likes multi-sport games. Panama is in the unique position where they compete in all games (Bolivarian, Central, South, Central & Caribbean and Pan American)

Official recommendation from our Olympic Committee to all federations is to send young athletes to all sports, although that's not an obligation and some sports might send the "A" team (unlikely for the big sports except maybe Athletics), especially the ones where Brazil is not that good like Fencing. Our young Judo team was announced:

 

Men's

Robson Penna (-60kg)
Michael Marcelino (-66kg)
David Lima (-73kg)
Tiago Pinho (-81kg)
Giovani Ferreira (-90kg)
Leonardo Gonçalves (-100kg)
João Cesarino (+100kg)

 

Women's

Larissa Farias (-48kg)
Larissa Pimenta (-52kg)
Gabrielle Gonzaga (-57kg)
Gabriella Moraes (-63kg)
Bruna Campos (-70kg)
Laislaine Rocha (-78kg)
Luiza Cruz (+78kg)

Argentina is sending a B team in swimming because the NOC denied funds to the swimming federation to make special altitude training for this competition.:(

Is that confirmed?, i read that from Ernesto Rodriguez but i dont see it from another journalist.

These games will be bad though, all the venues are either bad or unfinished + the altitude that will make things hard for many athletes.

 

It's important to rotate countries, but if someone is just not capable of hosting there's no way around it.

Is an unacceptable understimation of this tournament from the Brazilian NOC......but is just my opinion.

Do people in South America really care about the South American Games? I mean, at the time of the European Games really nobody did apart from a few die hard fans, and it never felt like a major competition..

It depends. If you're hosting, you care. But to be fair, in Colombia it has to compete for attention the same years where we go to the games that have Cuba. I'd even say the Bolivarians get more attention because they're seen as a battle against Venezuela and as a measuring stick. 

 

The Panams do matter tho, which are more akin to your European example.

      Italy also has many more judo clubs than wrestling. Our most recent medalists in wrestling were naturalized Cubans: Chamizo and Conyedo. Women's wrestling in Italy is at a very low level.

      I think it has to do with the depth in plenty of other countries, unlike Wrestling, and Judo tournaments systems in Europe and Asia, and the schedule is more dense then wrestling and of course the exposure of it in the Free JudoTV system and broadcasting and advertising and crowd support unlike UWW where it’s barely exists, I mean for my NOC I would have love to see more Wrestlers but again its less common and exposed to the public so you need to know it from your local sports club
