The 2000 Men's Pan American Cup was the first edition of the Men's Pan American Cup, the quadrennial men's international field hockey championship of the Americas organized by the Pan American Hockey Federation. It was held from 22 June to 2 July 2000 in Havana, Cuba. The tournament doubled as the qualifier to the 2002 Hockey World Cup to be held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The winner would qualify directly while the teams ranked between 2nd and 5th would have the chance to obtain one of seven berths at the World Cup Qualifier in Edinburgh, Scotland.
Cuba won the tournament for the first time after defeating Canada 2–1 in the final, earning an automatic berth at the 2002 Hockey World Cup.
