The XII South American Games (Spanish: XII Juegos Suramericanos Asunción 2022) was a multi-sport event held between 1–15 October 2022 in Asunción, Paraguay. The Games were organized by the South American Sports Organization, the Paraguayan Olympic Committee, the government of the Republic of Paraguay and the local National Secretary of Sports.

Bidding process

The city of Asunción, capital of Paraguay, announced its interest in hosting the 2022 South American Games. In September 2017, Camilo Pérez López Moreira, president of the Paraguayan Olympic Committee, reported that he had the endorsement of then-President Horacio Cartes to be able to present the Asunción 2022 candidacy. According to López, an investment of USD 25 million was required.[1] Meanwhile, it was speculated that the Argentine city of Rosario would also present its candidacy.

Asunción was finally the only city that officially presented its candidacy for the 2022 South American Games before the nominations deadline, on November 17, 2019. At the Odesur assembly on December 11, 2017, it was designated as the host city unanimously.[2] Rosario, meanwhile, was assigned as the venue for the 2021 South American Youth Games (now the 2022 South American Youth Games).

Among the venues that were designed for the organization of the event were the Paraguayan Olympic Park, the Sportivo Luqueño Club (both located in Luque), the bay of Asunción and Rakiura, while the South American Village was built in the city of Mariano Roque Alonso in an area of 17.5 hectares (although it was initially indicated that it would be in Costanera Norte).

However, the local National Secretary of Sports (SND) announced on July 27, 2019 that the country was renouncing the organization of the event. The reason given by the government was that the resources committed in the Games were destined to the construction of a new hospital in Barrio Obrero and other health projects.

On October 8, the president of Odesur and also of the Paraguayan Olympic Committee, Camilo Pérez, announced that Asunción will finally organize this edition of the South American Games.[3]

Budget

The capital budget of the games was cut to 180 million USD, due to budget cuts by the government. This amount was further reduced to 80 million USD.[4]
