The 2022 Asian Girls' U18 Volleyball Championship will be the 13th edition of the Asian Girls' U18 Volleyball Championship, a biennial international women's volleyball tournament organised by the Asian Volleyball Confederation (AVC) with Thailand Volleyball Association (TVA) for the girls' under–18 national teams of Asia.

The tournament will be held in Nakhon Pathom, Thailand, from 6 to 13 June 2022. Earlier, this tournament was due to be hosted by Uzbekistan on the same dates, but due to some unforeseen reasons, Nakhon Pathom has replaced Tashkent as the host city of the eight-day Championship, also adjusted to Asian Girls' U18 Championship as approved by the AVC Board of Administration.

Same as previous editions, the tournament acted as the AVC qualifiers for the FIVB Volleyball Girls' U19 World Championship. The top four teams qualified for the 2023 FIVB Volleyball Girls' U19 World Championship as the AVC representatives.[1]

A total of eleventh teams played in the tournament, with players born on or after 1 January 2005 eligible to participate. It was originally U-17 competition for players born on or after 2006,[2] but later was changed to U-18, so the age restriction was also changed to 2005.[3]

Qualified teams

Following the AVC regulations, The maximum of 16 teams in all AVC events will be selected by

  • 1 team for the host country
  • 10 teams based on the final standing of the previous edition
  • 5 teams from each of 5 zones (with a qualification tournament if needed)

Pool standing procedure

  1. Total number of victories (matches won, matches lost)
  2. In the event of a tie, the following first tiebreaker will apply: The teams will be ranked by the most point gained per match as follows:
    • Match won 3–0 or 3–1: 3 points for the winner, 0 points for the loser
    • Match won 3–2: 2 points for the winner, 1 point for the loser
    • Match forfeited: 3 points for the winner, 0 points (0–25, 0–25, 0–25) for the loser
  3. If teams are still tied after examining the number of victories and points gained, then the FIVB will examine the results in order to break the tie in the following order:
    • Set quotient: if two or more teams are tied on the number of points gained, they will be ranked by the quotient resulting from the division of the number of all set won by the number of all sets lost.
    • Points quotient: if the tie persists based on the set quotient, the teams will be ranked by the quotient resulting from the division of all points scored by the total of points lost during all sets.
    • If the tie persists based on the point quotient, the tie will be broken based on the team that won the match of the Round Robin Phase between the tied teams. When the tie in point quotient is between three or more teams, these teams ranked taking into consideration only the matches involving the teams in question.
