The 2022 WAFF U-18 Girls Championship was the third edition of the WAFF U-18 Girls Championship, the international women's football youth championship of Western Asia organized by the West Asian Football Federation (WAFF) for the women's under-18 national teams of West Asia. It was held in Lebanon from 19 to 25 October 2022.[1][2]

Host Lebanon were the defending champions having won the last edition in Bahrain.[3] and successfully defended the title after beating Syria 5–1 in the final.[4][5]

Participation

Participating teams

Initially, Six (out of 12) WAFF nations were set to enter the final tournament tournament.[6] However Iraq and Palestine withdrew before the draw. As a result, Host Lebanon entered two teams Team A (Under-18) and Team B (Under-16) to maintain the tournament’s competitiveness, with the number of participating teams reduced to three.[7]
