2001 OFC Club Championship

The 2001 OFC Club Championship was the third season of Oceania's premier club football tournament organised by OFC.

Wollongong Wolves defeated Tafea 1–0 in the final, which was played at Lloyd Robines Stadium in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. As winners, Wollongong Wolves qualified for the 2001 FIFA Club World Championship, which was however cancelled.

South Melbourne were the defending champions, but did not qualify for the tournament.[citation needed]

A total of 11 teams from 11 OFC member associations entered the competition.

Note: The OFC disciplinary committee ruled that 7 of PanSa's 18 players were not registered according to international transfer rules, some of which had been fielded in their first two matches. The first two matches were thus awarded 2–0 to the opposition, whilst PanSa were unable to field a team in the 3rd match (which was not played, and subsequently awarded 2–0 to Tafea). PanSa then withdrew from the competition, causing their fourth match to be awarded 2–0 to Titavi.
