2007 Championship

The inaugural competition was held between June 24 and June 30, 2007 and included eight teams: Toronto Croatia (Canada), Croat San Pedro (U.S.A), Zrinski Chicago (U.S.A.), Canberra Croatia (Australia), Croatia Essen (Germany), Croatia Berlin (Germany), Croatia Villefranche (France), and Burgenland Croatian (Austria). Of these only Burgenland was not an established club, but rather a selection side assembled after the Croatian World Games.

Toronto Croatia emerged as the victor of the first tournament with a 3-1 win over Canberra Croatia in the final. The team was awarded the championship trophy by Croatian Football Federation president Vlatko Marković.
