The 1982 Sudamérica XV rugby union tour of South Africa was a series of seven matches played by the Sudamérica XV rugby union team in South Africa in March and April 1982.[1] The South American team won six of their tour matches, suffering only a single defeat to the South Africa national side.[2] The South American team's 21–12 victory over South Africa in the second international was a major shock and described by Rothmans Rugby Yearbook as "a phenomenon of international rugby".[3]

The touring team comprised 42 players, including some from the Chile national rugby union team, Uruguay national rugby union team and Paraguay national rugby union team but the players who took part in the two international fixtures were drawn entirely from the Argentina national rugby union team and were described as "effectively the Pumas".[3][4]
