The South American Rugby Championship is a two-tiered, annual rugby union competition that features teams from South America. The tournament began in 1951 and was hosted by Uruguay, and was won by Argentina. It wasn't until 2005 when the first official Division B tournament was held, which was eventually won by Brazil.

As of 2008, all tournaments have been won by Argentina with the sole exception of the 1981 edition, in which Argentina did not participate.
