The 2014 Copa Libertadores Femenina was the sixth edition of the Copa Libertadores Femenina, South America's premier women's international club football tournament organized by CONMEBOL. The tournament was held in the city of São José dos Campos, in the São Paulo state of Brazil, from 5 to 16 November 2014.[1][2]

Hometown team São José were the defending champions and defended their title by beating Caracas FC in the final.[3] It was the third title for the team which thus became the record champion of the competition.

The topscorer award was shared by three players with six goals: Andressa Alves, Diana Ospina and Ysaura Viso, who won the award for a second time.[4]

The competition was contested by twelve teams: the title holder, the champion club from each of the ten CONMEBOL associations, and one additional team from the host country Brazil.[5]
