Pan American Women's Junior Handball Championship

The Pan American Women's Junior Handball Championship was the official competition for junior women's national handball teams of the Americas, and took place every two years. In addition to crowning the Pan American champions, the tournament also served as a qualifying tournament for the IHF Junior World Handball Championship. In 2018, the PATHF was deprived of recognition and the tournament was replaced with the North American & Caribbean and South and Central American Women's Junior Handball Championships.
