The Oceania Under 20 Rugby Championship is an international rugby union competition. The event is organised by the Federation of Oceania Rugby Unions (FORU), which is the regional governing body for rugby in Oceania.[1] It is contested by men's junior national teams with an under-20 age requirement.

This event replaced Oceania's former age-grade competition, the Oceania Under 19 Rugby Championship. The inaugural first division tournament in 2015 will feature four national under 20 teams.[1] A planned second division tournament for a further six national under 20 sides was postponed until 2016,[2][3][4] however Fiji and Tonga will participate in the Australian Under 20 Rugby Championship.[1]
