The 2018 South American Under-17 Women's Football Championship was the 6th edition of the South American Under-17 Women's Football Championship (Spanish: CONMEBOL Sudamericano Femenino Sub-17), the biennial international youth football championship organised by the CONMEBOL for the women's under-17 national teams of South America. The tournament was held in Argentina between 7–25 March 2018.[1]

The top two teams of the tournament qualified for the 2018 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup in Uruguay as the CONMEBOL representatives, besides Uruguay who qualified automatically as hosts.[2]

Brazil were crowned champions for the third time. Venezuela were the defending champions, but could only finish fourth.
