List of Oceanian youth bests in athletics

Oceanian youth bests are ratified by the Oceania Athletics Association (OAA) and comprise the all-time best marks set in competition by Oceanian athletes aged 17 or younger throughout the entire calendar year of the performance. OAA does not maintain official indoor bests. All indoor bests shown on this list are tracked by statisticians not officially sanctioned by the governing body.
