The 2020 Oceania Rugby Under 20s was only contested in the Trophy division where Samoa won their first under-20 title by defeating Tonga in a one-off match played in February at Apia Park.[1] The Championship division, originally planned for 27 May to 6 June, was postponed and then cancelled due to travel and public health restrictions in place for the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] Teams from Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and Japan had been scheduled to play at Bond University on the Gold Coast.[3]
