This is the 21tst Asian Women's U20 Volleyball Cup which will use the new competition format. Following the 2024 AVC Board of Administration's unanimous decision, the new format will see teams being drawn into three or four pools up to the total amount of the participating teams. Each team as well as the host side will be assigned into a pool according to their previous ranking (2022 Asian Women's U20 Volleyball Championship). As the three best-ranked teams will be drawn in the same Pool A, the next best three will contest Pool B, the next best three will contest Pool C. Pool D will comprise teams finishing next best four teams.[8]
