The OFC Champions League 2013/14 was the 13th edition of an oceanic championship competition for club football teams and took place from October 15, 2013 to April 2014. This season there was another mode change and an expansion of the field of participants. The actual group stage with eleven clubs from the seven strongest countries (two each from Fiji, New Zealand, Tahiti and Vanuatu, and one each from New Caledonia, Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands) was, as in the previous season, a qualifying round with the champions from American Samoa, the Cook Islands, Samoa and Tonga. These four teams played the twelfth participant in the group stage in a round-robin tournament everyone against everyone. A playoff against the champions from the worst-placed association of the CL group stage of the preseason was omitted. In the group phase, twelve teams in three groups of four played the semi-final participants for the first time, for which the three group winners and the best runner-up were qualified. The group stage did not take place in return matches as before, but in the form of a tournament in Fiji in April 2014.

The OFC Champions League winner qualified for the 2014 FIFA Club World Cup in Morocco . Both finalists also qualified for the first OFC President's Cup 2014, in which two clubs from Asia and two other teams took part.
