The 2007 OMFA Oceania Championship (or just 2007 Oceania Championship) was the first edition of OMFA's quadrennial Oceania Mini-Football Championship and was held in New Zealand. Eight teams contested the final tournament after going through a qualification round. The tournament took place in three venues in the cities of Auckland, Christchurch and Wellington.
Qualifying
Qualification for the tournament took place in 2007. Twenty-three teams were divided into five groups of four and one group of three and each team played two matches against each other, on a home-and-away basis. The first-placed teams from each group qualified automatically and the runners-up took part in a repechage to select the remaining team that joined the host nation in the final tournament.
Teams
The eight teams that participated in the final tournament were:
Australia
Fiji
New Caledonia
New Zealand (hosts)
Squads
Each team must name a squad of 6 players (2 goalkeepers) for the tournament. All players must be over 23 years - younger players can be only eligible for the Under-23 national teams.
