The Oceana Derby 2012 is an upcomming annual football derby between Oceana football clubs, namely FK Swat Lews from Hurbanova, Sheckin Lads from East Hills, and Scotland FC from Hurbanova. The derby is invented in April 2010, as an answer to the long inactivity of the national football competitions. The clubs have never played against each other, as the formation from Hurbanova has played only one match since its foundation in 2008 and because Sheckin Lads weren't meant to be a club that would play against other clubs, but only a club where locals would play against each other.
This was the first time the derby matches were televised, the final two matches were each shown over the Oceana public funded television each having about 3,000 viewers.
