Paraguay's Cadet women's handball team, competing as Paraguay A, clinched the South Central America SCA U15 championship title on Saturday, defeating Argentina 27-24 in a hard-fought final match held in Paraguay.

This victory adds another significant achievement for Paraguayan handball, coming just a week after the Infantil (U13) girls' team secured their own championship title. The Cadet team's win, described as the "golden finish," mirrors the success of their younger counterparts.

The U15 tournament saw Paraguay field two teams in the women's category. While the Paraguay A team celebrated the championship, the Paraguay B team secured fourth place after a 28-22 loss to Uruguay, narrowly missing a podium finish.

Paraguay also participated in the U16 men's division of the tournament, which took place across the sports facilities at the Olympic Park. The Cadet girls were coached by Rodrigo Rojas.
