The Chile national rugby sevens team is a minor national sevens side. They have made three appearances at the Rugby World Cup Sevens; they also compete in the Pan American Games, and have featured in the World Rugby Sevens Series.

History

In the 2008 USA Sevens they lost to Australia 24-14 in the Shield finals. In preparation for the 2018 Rugby World Cup Sevens they toured Fiji, a month before the World Cup. Chile was invited to the 2021 World Rugby Sevens Series that was held in Canada, in Vancouver and Edmonton.

They have participated at two Olympic repechage tournaments, in 2016 and 2020, but were unsuccessful in qualifying for the Olympics on both occasions.

Chile qualified for the 2024 World Rugby Sevens Challenger Series in Dubai. In the first round of the series, they defeated Germany in the semi-finals before losing out to Kenya in the Cup final to finish as runners-up. They finished third overall in the Challenger series and qualified for the SVNS promotion and relegation play-off competition at the 2024 Spain Sevens.
