At least in the administration of the federations we are not very different. In Brazil we have bad management and corruption. However, in terms of financial support we're still at the peak, with more than 6,000 athletes receiving government allowances, but this should decrease in the coming years.

A Guyanas boxer qualify for semifinals in boxing, all the countries in the south american games win at least a medal.

The organizing committee does not have much scheduling experience. It's a disaster. They should concentrate the gross of the medals on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, and not on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. This would improve the on-site and TV audience.

The main core squad (I think 16-18 players?) is in Europe preparing for the last stages of sevens series. I don't know exactly if these players in Cochabamba are the best ones after those, because we also usually have some sevens players involved in rugby union tournaments with our "Argentina XV" team (the reserves of our rugby union national team).

Guilherme Costa, a brazilian reporter, said that Brazil took the lead in the medal table. Website has not updated yet.
 
 

Brazil is sending 310 athletes to Cochabamba. The complete list is here: https://www.cob.org.br/en/time-brasil/jogos-sul-americanos-cochabamba-2018/nossos-atletas-em-cochabamba
 
We are sending A-teams in the following sports: athletics, badminton, bowling, canoeing, track cycling, fencing, trampoline, handball, field hockey, rugby, karate, wrestling, synchronized swimming, figure skating, diving and shooting.
 
Other sports are sending alternative teams but with pretty good athletes such as Arthur Zanetti, Flavia Saraiva, Jade Barbosa, Caio Souza, Francisco Barretto, Natália Gaudio and Maicon Andrade.
