OFC Women's Championship

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The OFC Women's Championship (also known as the Oceania Cup) is a competition in women's football for national teams which belong to the Oceania Football Confederation (OFC). 8 tournaments have been held, with the current champions being New Zealand.

The competition has served as a qualifying tournament for the FIFA Women's World Cup since 1991. In 2007, the competition took place in Papua New Guinea for the second time. Tonga and the Solomon Islands each took part for the first time in the four-team event, which was plagued by withdrawals from six squads.
