2016 CONCACAF Futsal Championship

The 2016 CONCACAF Futsal Championship was the 6th edition of the CONCACAF Futsal Championship, the quadrennial international futsal championship organised by CONCACAF for the men's national teams of the North, Central American and Caribbean region. The tournament was held in San José, Costa Rica between 8–14 May 2016. A total of eight teams played in the tournament.

Same as previous editions, the tournament acted as the CONCACAF qualifiers for the FIFA Futsal World Cup. The top four teams of the tournament qualified for the 2016 FIFA Futsal World Cup in Colombia as the CONCACAF representatives.

Champions Costa Rica, runners-up Panama, third-placed Guatemala and fourth-placed Cuba qualified for the 2016 FIFA Futsal World Cup as the CONCACAF representatives.

The eight berths were allocated to the three regional zones as follows:

• Two teams from the North American Zone (NAFU), including Mexico who qualified automatically
• Three teams from the Central American Zone (UNCAF), including Costa Rica who qualified automatically as hosts
• Two teams from the Caribbean Zone (CFU)
• The final berth was allocated to the play-off winner between a team from the Central American Zone and a team from the Caribbean Zone

Regional qualification tournaments were held to determine the teams joining Mexico and hosts Costa Rica at the final tournament, including two play-offs which were played on 4 and 5 May in Costa Rica prior to the final tournament.

The following eight teams qualified for the final tournament.

The matches were played at the BN Arena of Ciudad Deportiva de Hatillo in San José.

The draw for the tournament took place on 16 March 2016 at 12:30 CST (UTC−6) at the Hotel Barceló San José Palacio in San José.

The eight teams were drawn into two groups of four teams. Tournament host and defending CONCACAF Futsal Championship champion Costa Rica were seeded in Group B, while 2012 runner-up Guatemala were seeded in Group A.

The draw took place before the final two qualifiers from play-offs (Honduras and Canada) had been confirmed.

Each team could register a maximum of 14 players (two of whom must be goalkeepers).

The top two teams of each group advanced to the semi-finals and qualified for the 2016 FIFA Futsal World Cup. The teams were ranked according to points (3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, 0 points for a loss). If tied on points, tiebreakers would be applied in the following order:

1. Goal difference in all group matches;
2. Greatest number of goals scored in all group matches;
3. Greatest number of points obtained in the group matches between the teams concerned;
4. Goal difference resulting from the group matches between the teams concerned;
5. Greater number of goals scored in all group matches between the teams concerned;
6. Drawing of lots.
