The CONIFA South America Football Cup, also referred to as CONIFA Copa América, is an international football tournament organized by CONIFA, an umbrella association for states, minorities, stateless peoples and regions unaffiliated with FIFA.[1]
On 24 January 2022, CONIFA announced that the first edition of the CONIFA South America Football Cup would take place in Linares, Chile and feature 4 teams (Aymara, Mapuche, Maule Sur and São Paulo FAD).[2] São Paulo FAD however was unable to arrive in time for the dispute due to excessive ice on the roads in southern Chile, and the tournament has been changed to a single round robin format. Maule Sur won the first edition of the tournament.[3][4]
