CONCACAF Qualifiers
FIFA World Cup
CCCF–NAFC era

CONCACAF era

The North, Central American and Caribbean section of the 1962 FIFA World Cup qualification acted as qualifiers for the 1962 FIFA World Cup in Chile, for national teams which are members of the CCCF and NAFC. Seven teams participated in the tournament to compete for one place in the inter-confederation play-offs against a CONMEBOL team.

Format

The qualification structure was as follows:

  • First round: Seven teams were divided into three groups (one group of three teams and two groups of two teams) to play home-and-away round-robin matches. The winner of each group advanced to the second round.
  • Second round: Three teams which had advanced from the first round played home-and-away round-robin matches in one group. The group winner qualified for the CCCF/NAFC–CONMEBOL play-off.

Entrants

Eight national teams from the region initially entered qualification, though Canada later withdrew.[1]

Note: Bolded teams advanced to the inter-confederation play-offs.
