The 1994 CONCACAF U-20 Tournament was an association football tournament that took place in Honduras in August 1994. It determined the two CONCACAF teams that participated at the 1995 FIFA World Youth Championship.[1]

Qualification

As in 1992 a qualifying stage was organised for the Caribbean and for the first time as well for Central America. The format was smaller than for the previous tournament, with teams only having to play one or two opponents. 12 Caribbean teams entered, of which 4 qualified in two rounds. 6 Central American teams entered, of which 4 qualified as well, but in one round.
