This article is about an association football tournament. For information about Pan American championships in different sports, see List of Pan American Championships.

The Panamerican Championship was an international official football tournament held by the Panamerican Football Confederation every four years from 1952 through 1960. Since the Americas' premier tournament, Copa América, was restricted to South American teams, the Panamerican Championship was an attempt to create an Americas-wide championship.
