The Central American qualification competition was organised by the Central American Football Union (UNCAF). Honduras, host of the 2015 CONCACAF U-17 Championship, did not participate in the qualifying tournament. The remaining six UNCAF teams were drawn on 19 May 2014 into two triangulars, which were hosted in Costa Rica and Panama, respectively. The first-place teams from each triangular qualified for the 2015 CONCACAF U-17 Championship, while the second-place teams contested a repechage playoff for the final UNCAF berth.[5][6]

All match times are UTC−6, except Triangular 2 which are UTC−5.
