The women's tournament of the water polo at the 2022 South American Games was held from 11 to 15 October 2022 at the Centro Acuático Nacional in Asunción, Paraguay.[1] It was the second edition of the water polo women's tournament at the South American Games since its first appearance in Medellín 2010 (it was not held in Santiago 2014 and ended being cancelled in Cochabamba 2018).

The tournament served as qualifier for the 2023 Pan American Games, with the top two teams qualifying to the women's water polo tournament.[2]

Defending champions Brazil won the gold medal and their second South American Games women's water polo title after beating Argentina by a 14–8 score in the final.[3] Both teams, Brazil and Argentina, qualified for the 2023 Pan American Games as the CONSANAT representatives, besides Chile who qualified automatically as hosts.

Peru beat Venezuela 18–17 (4–3 on penalties) to win the bronze medal.

Schedule[edit]

The tournament was held over a 5-day period, from 11 to 15 October.
