2024 OFC Champions League

The 2024 OFC Champions League was the 23rd edition of the Oceanian club championship. Organized by the Oceania Football Confederation (OFC), it is Oceania's premier club football tournament. The 2024 edition of the tournament was the 18th season under the current OFC Champions League name.

The tournament winner qualified for the 2024 FIFA Intercontinental Cup. By winning the 2022 OFC Champions League and the 2023 OFC Champions League, Auckland City earned the right to play at the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup in the United States before even playing the 2024 OFC Champions League.

Qualification to 2025 FIFA Club World Cup

On 17 December 2023 FIFA confirmed the sporting criteria for the four-year ranking used to determine the OFC representative in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, awarding 3 points for a win, one point for a draw, and three points for "advanced phase" in the Confederations primary club competition. On the same day, FIFA confirmed Auckland City as the OFC representative. As champions of the previous two iterations of the OFC Champions League, there was no mathematical possibility for Auckland City to be overtaken by another club during the 2024 OFC Champions League.
