The winner of each weight category 2014 South American Games, 2014 Pan American Championships and 2014 Central American and Caribbean Games will qualify for the Games. The top five in the 2015 Pan American Championship also qualify. The host country (Canada) is guaranteed a spot in each event, but its athletes must compete in both the 2014 and 2015 Pan American Championships. A further six invitational slots (four men and two women) will be awarded to nations without any qualified athlete but took part in the qualification tournaments.^[1] All countries qualifying an athlete in a tournament in 2014 will be required to compete in the 2015 Pan American Championship, failure to do so will mean the forfeiting of the quota.
