International football competition

The 2013 South American U-15 Championship (Spanish: Campeonato Sudamericano Sub-15 Bolivia 2013) was the 6th edition of the South American U-15 Championship, the biennial international youth football championship organised by CONMEBOL for the men's under-15 national teams of South America.[3] It was held in Bolivia from 16 to 26 November 2023.

The tournament acted as South American qualifying for the 2014 Summer Youth Olympics. The champion team qualified for the 2014 Summer Youth Olympics boys' football tournament in Nanjing, China as the CONMEBOL representative.[4]

Brazil were the defending champions, but they failed to defend the title after being eliminated in the group stage.

Peru won their first South American U-15 title by defeating Colombia 1–0 in the final, and qualified for the 2014 Summer Youth Olympics boys' football tournament. Argentina finished in third place after beating Chile in the third-place play-off.
