FIBA Oceania Championship was theOceaniabasketball championships that took place every two years between national teams of the continent. It was also the qualifying tournament for theBasketball World Cups andOlympic Games.

The first edition of the tournament was held in 1971.^[1][2] When only Australia and New Zealand competed, the tournament was usually a best-of-three playoff; if other teams competed, a round-robin and a knockout stage was employed.^[1] In 2009, the Oceania Basketball Federation changed this format to a two-game, home-and-away playoff between the two countries, with aggregate score as the tiebreaker should the teams split the series.^[3]

Beginning in 2017, all FIBA continental championships for men will be held on a four-year cycle, and the continental championships will no longer be part of the qualifying process for either the World Cup or Olympics.^[4][5] The2015 Oceania Championship were the last to be held as from 2017, the tournament merged with the former FIBA Asia Championship to give way to a competition now known as theFIBA Asia Cup.^[6][7]
