The last edition of the tournament was held in 2019. The 2020 edition, due to be hosted in Tianjin, China.[3] The hosting duties was moved to Thailand before the tournament was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[4]

Qualification edit

Following the AVC regulations, the maximum of 16 teams in all AVC events will be selected by:[2]

  • 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)

Due to anticipated difficulty for national federations to field teams due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the AVC allowed two clubs from the same national federation to participate in the case that there are less than 8 federations enter the tournament. In the case of less than 16 entrants, the host is entitled to enter two teams. Only four national federations entered with Iran the only country to have one representative club.[1]
