. The event was held in Montevideo
and featured four South American teams. Teams played each of the other three teams twice apiece; Uruguay won all six of its games. In 1932
, Uruguay lost its first game of the South American Basketball Championship
series when it was defeated by Chile
in one of the two matches it played against the Chileans in the preliminary round. When each team finished at 3–1 (each having defeated Argentina
twice), they played each other in a third match to determine the champion, which Uruguay won.
The 1934
and 1935
competitions did not end so happily for the Uruguay team, as they finished in last place each year. With the larger fields of 5 teams each year in 1937
, 1938
, and 1939
, Uruguay fared somewhat better. They took second place in 1937 and 1939, and third in 1938.
Uruguay won their third championship in 1940
, which saw the return of the series to Montevideo. There were a record six teams in competition that year; Uruguay beat each of the other five in turn to finish undefeated. 1941
resulted in a bronze medal for Uruguay. The team played in their second tie-breaker final in 1942
, this time losing to Argentina to take second place in the tournament. Uruguay advanced to the final round in the first two-round tournament, in 1943
, finishing in second place overall.
Uruguay has won the South American Championship 11 times, the last two in 1995 and 1997. The team ranked in the top four in all editions as of 2010.
