The 1972 South African Gazelles rugby union tour in Argentina was a series of matches played by the Gazelles (Under-24 South African selection) in Argentina, between September and November 1972.[1][2]
It was the second tour of Argentina by this selection, after the 1966 tour and the fourth of a South African team.[3][4]
The series between "Gazelles" and "Pumas" (Argentina national team) was tied with a victory for both. In fact, the second test played on 4 November was the first victory ever of a national team over a South African side.[5]
