Football - Copa America
Football's longest running international tournament, the Copa America began as the South American Championship before being re-named in 1975. It is contested on a biennial basis by the 10 South American nations who form CONMEBOL, plus two "guest" teams from the neighbouring CONCACAF federation of North/Central America and the Caribbean. In 2016 a special extended centenary event was held in the USA, encompassing teams from across the Americas, and a similarly enlarged event was also held in the USA in 2024.
