It determined that year's club champion of association football in the CONCACAF region.

The tournament was played by 8 teams of 7 nations: Netherlands Antilles, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras and México. The tournament was played from 25 March of 1962 till 21 August of 1962.

The tournament was split in 3 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 semi-final 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.
