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.

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]

The 23 AVC member associations were from 5 zonal associations, including, Central Asia (7 teams), East Asia (6 teams), Oceania (2 teams), Southeast Asia (2 teams) and West Asia (6 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.

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.
