The 1962 CONCACAF Champions' Cup was the inaugural edition of the top international club competition organized by CONCACAF for clubs from North America, Central America and the Caribbean, the CONCACAF Champions' Cup. It determined the 1962 continental football champions in the CONCACAF region. The tournament was contested by 8 clubs from 7 national associations: Netherlands Antilles, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras and Mexico. The tournament was held from 25 March 1962 to 21 August 1962.
The tournament was split into three zones (North American, Central American and Caribbean), each one qualifying the winner to the final tournament, where the winners of the Central and Caribbean groups played a semifinal to decide who was going to play against the Northern group champion in the final. All the matches in the tournament were played under the home/away match system.
CD Guadalajara won that final, and became the first CONCACAF club champion.[1]
