Qualification
editA total of eight men's and women's teams qualified for the tournament. The hosts country Chile received automatic qualification in both tournaments. The top two teams at the 2023 Central American and Caribbean Games and 2022 South American Games also qualified. The top three teams not yet qualified from the 2022 Men's and Women's Pan American Cup (after the results from the above two tournaments are taken into account) also qualified. If the Canada and/or the United States have not qualified still, a playoff between the nations and the third ranked at the Pan American Cups will take place. If both nations do qualify, the playoff will be not necessary and the next best placed team at each Pan American Cup (that has not already qualified) will qualify.[2]
