Moscoso and Quispe to Lead Bolivia as Flag Bearers at South American Games

Bolivia has named its flag bearers for the upcoming South American Games, selecting racquetball star Conrrado Moscoso and track and field athlete Valeria Quispe to lead the nation's delegation.

The Bolivian Olympic Committee (COB) proudly announced the duo, who will carry the national flag at the games scheduled to take place in Santa Fe, Argentina, from September 12 to 26. Moscoso, hailing from Chuquisaca, holds the top individual ranking in the International Racquetball Tour (IRT) and has a history of international success, including a gold medal at the Lima 2019 Pan American Games and an individual gold at the Santiago 2023 Pan American Games.

with pride

Quispe, from Tarija, is also a distinguished athlete, having earned a bronze medal at the 2024 Ibero-American Athletics Championships in Brazil and a gold medal at the 2025 Bolivarian Games in Ayacucho and Lima. Her achievements mark her as one of Bolivia's prominent sports figures.

as the flag bearers

Bolivia is sending a substantial delegation of 239 athletes to compete across 31 sports. The COB has set an ambitious target of securing at least 15 medals, including four gold, four silver, and seven bronze. This goal is particularly significant given the absence of racquetball, a strong sport for Bolivia, in the previous Asunción 2022 Games, where the country secured two silver and six bronze medals.

The South American Games officially commenced with a torch-lighting ceremony held on August 12 at the pre-Hispanic citadel of Tiahuanaco, setting the stage for the continental competition.
