The 2009 Men's Pan American Cup was the third edition of the Pan American Cup for men. It was held between 7–15 March 2009 in Santiago, Chile.

The tournament doubled as the qualifier to the 2010 World Cup to be held in New Delhi, India. The winner would qualify directly while teams ranked between 2nd and 4th would have the chance to obtain one of three berths at the World Cup Qualifiers.

Canada won the tournament for the first time after defeating the United States 2–1 in the final, earning an automatic berth at the 2010 World Cup.
