2022 OFC U-19 Championship

The 2022 OFC U-19 Championship was the 23rd edition of the OFC U-19/U-20 Championship, the biennial international youth football championship organised by the Oceania Football Confederation (OFC) for the men's under-19/under-20 national teams of Oceania.

On 4 June 2021, the OFC announced the tournament had been moved to August from July.

The top two teams of the tournament qualified for the 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Argentina as the OFC representatives. New Zealand the defending champions, won the title for the eighth time, and qualified together with runners-up Fiji.
