The '''2000 [[CFU Club Championship|Caribbean Football Union Club Championship]]''' was an international club football competition held in the [[Caribbean]] to determine the region's qualifiers to the [[CONCACAF Champions' Cup]].
The winners [[Joe Public F.C.]]<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=CFU Club Championship 2000 - Results, fixtures, tables and stats - Global Sports Archive |url=https://globalsportsarchive.com/competition/soccer/cfu-club-championship-2000/final-stage/19193/ |access-date=2025-04-09 |website=Global Sports Archive}}</ref> advanced to [[CONCACAF Champions' Cup 2000]].

==History==
Originally a final tournament with 8 teams was planned, with as participants:
*[[Joe Public FC]] ({{TRI}}, holders)
*[[Tivoli Gardens]] ({{JAM}}, 1999/2000 NPL Heroes' Cup winners)
*[[Camdonia Chelsea FC]] ({{VIN}}, 1999 St.Vincent club champion)
*[[Club Franciscain]] ({{MTQ}}, 1998/99 Ligue de Football de *Martinique champion)
*[[Defence Force F.C.|Defence Force]] ({{TRI}}, 1999 PFL champion)
*[[Notre Dame SC]] ({{BRB}}, 1999 Premier League champion)
*[[W Connection]] ({{TRI}}, PFL sub-champion)
*[[Violette AC]] ({{HAI}} - replace champions {{GLP}})

This was to be held October 28 – November 5, 2000.

However, in preparation of a 'dramatically enhanced' CONCACAF club competition, the set-up was changed completely; 4 groups with 14 teams in all were formed; the winners of which to progress to the final championship round.  Of the above 8 teams, 3, viz. [[Camdonia Chelsea SC|Chelsea]], [[Notre Dame SC|Notre Dame]], and [[Defence Force F.C.|Defence Force]], were suddenly not invited - on whatever criteria.
