Asian Men's U20 Championship

The 2018 Asian Men's U20 Volleyball Championship was the 19th edition of the Asian Men's U20 Volleyball Championship, a biennial international volleyball tournament organised by the Asian Volleyball Confederation (AVC) with Bahrain Volleyball Association (BVA). The tournament was held in Riffa, Bahrain from 21 to 28 July 2018.[1][2] The top two teams of the tournament qualified for the 2019 FIVB Volleyball Men's U21 World Championship as the AVC representatives.

Players must be born on or after 1 January 1999. And they can enroll themselves maximum for twice championships.

On 14 December 2020, the AVC announced that the 2020 Asian Men's U20 Volleyball Championship which was originally the AVC qualifier for the 2021 FIVB Volleyball Men's U21 World Championship was canceled due to COVID-19 pandemic and the top two teams of the tournament qualified for the 2021 U21 World Championship as the AVC representatives.[3]

Pools composition

[edit]

This was the first Asian U20 Championship which used the new competition format. Following the 2017 AVC Board of Administration's unanimous decision, the new format saw teams were drawn into eight pools up to the total amount of the participating teams. Each team as well as the hosts was assigned into a pool according to their final standing of the 2016 edition. As the three best ranked teams were drawn in the same pool A, the next best three contested pool B, the next best three contested pool C.[4] But, Uzbekistan withdrew after the draw. Final standing of the 2016 edition are shown in brackets.

Venues

[edit]

Pool standing procedure

[edit]
  1. Number of matches won
  2. Match points
  3. Sets ratio
  4. Points ratio
  5. If the tie continues as per the point ratio between two teams, the priority will be given to the team which won the last match between them. When the tie in points ratio is between three or more teams, a new classification of these teams in the terms of points 1, 2 and 3 will be made taking into consideration only the matches in which they were opposed to each other.

Match won 3–0 or 3–1: 3 match points for the winner, 0 match points for the loser
Match won 3–2: 2 match points for the winner, 1 match point for the loser

Preliminary round

[edit]
  • All times are Arabia Standard Time (UTC+03:00).
  • Originally, the third ranked team of pool D had to play against the third ranked team of pool G in the playoffs. However, due to the absence of Uzbekistan, there were only two teams in pool G, so the third ranked team of pool D went directly to the round of 16.
