2026 South American Games: Results and Legacy

Overview

The 13th South American Games, Santa Fe 2026, have concluded, leaving a significant sporting and infrastructural legacy across Rosario, Santa Fe, and Rafaela.

Local athletes from Rosario finished their participation with 46 medals (5 gold, 24 silver, and 17 bronze) from 49 competitors, with 34 athletes reaching the podium. Gold medalists included Tobías Giorgis in water ski jumping, Santino Basaldella in SUP sprint and technical events, Luisina Giovannini in women’s doubles tennis, and Pedro De Haro as part of the Los Pumas 7 rugby team. Silver medals were notably earned in water polo, men’s football, women’s volleyball, artistic skating, rowing, judo, water skiing, archery, and tennis.

In the wake of the competition, Argentine national deputies have introduced a project to declare Santa Fe the ‘National Capital of Sport’. This proposal cites the province’s 150-year sporting history and the more than $90 million invested in facility improvements during the Games.

Regional development continues through the ‘Santa Fe en Movimiento’ program, which utilizes renovated venues like the High Performance Sports Center (CARD) to host approximately 3,000 young athletes in provincial finals. Additionally, athletes from San Rafael, including canoeing bronze medalist Tais Trimarchi and shooting finalist Josefina Mella, have received municipal recognition for their performances.
