1935 South American Championship
Template:Short description Template:Use dmy dates Template:Infobox international football competition
The 1935 South American Championship was the thirteenth edition of the football tournament, held from 6–27 January 1935 in Lima, Peru, used for Argentina, Chile, Peru, and Uruguay to qualify for the 1936 Summer Olympics. Brazil, Bolivia and Paraguay did not join the tournament.
There was some doubt the tournament would take place as during the 1930 FIFA World Cup, where Uruguay defeated Argentina, 4–2 in the final match, Argentina broke off football relations with their Uruguayan counterparts, claiming to have been heavily pressured, and that aggressions had been directed at them, before and during the tournament.
Six years after the previous edition, it was decided to continue the tournament. This tournament is classified as Extraordinary Championship (Campeonato extraordinario in Spanish) and did not have a trophy in dispute. The tournament was held on the occasion of the fourth centenary of the founding of the city of Lima.<ref name="AUF">AUF - Copa América 1935</ref>
