Panama is a Smash region that encompasses the country of the same name. It borders Costa Rica to the west and the South American country Colombia to the south.

Though historically an overlooked and underrepresented region, Panama's strength has improved significantly during the late 2010s and early 2020s, in part due to the rise of JCAM onto the global scene, especially after he won the SWT: Central America Melee Regional Finals over many of Mexico's best Melee players at that time and his sponsorship with Melee Stats. Outside of JCAM, several other Panamanian players have seen great success outside their region, including AnDy and LumaKing in Ultimate. Tournament activity in the region primarily takes place in Panama City and its metropolitan area.
