UNCAF Interclub Cup
(1st title) GUA Municipal CRC Alajuelense (2 titles each)
The UNCAF Interclub Cup was an annual international football competition held in the UNCAF region (Central America). The competition was open to the leading domestic club teams in the region. The winners of each national league qualified automatically. It also provided qualification places for the CONCACAF Champions' Cup, to which the top three teams advanced. Starting in 2008, all of the Central American nations have one or two teams qualifying directly to the expanded CONCACAF Champions League, thus this tournament ceased to be played.
This tournament replaced former friendly competitions such as the Copa Fraternidad (1971–1983) and the Torneo Grandes de Centroamérica (1996–1998).
In 2016, a new women's tournament was introduced.
