The 2022 WAFF U-23 Championship was the third edition of the WAFF U-23 Championship the biennial international age-restricted football championship organized by the West Asian Football Federation (WAFF) for the men's under-23 national teams of West Asia. A total of six teams competed in the tournament.
The tournament was originally going to be held in Iraq from 3 to 18 November 2022,[2] but was relocated to Saudi Arabia due to the 2021–2022 Iraqi political crisis.[3] Jordan, the defending champions, did not take part in the tournament. Saudi Arabia won their first title after defeating Qatar 3–1 in the final.[4]
Host selection
Originally, it was determined that Iraq would host the tournament, as a preparatory competition ahead of the 2023 AFC Asian Cup.[5] However, due to the 2021–2022 Iraqi political crisis, the hosting rights were lifted based on the recommendation issued in this regard by the General Assembly and the Executive Committee of the WAFF during its two recent meetings that were held in the Jordanian capital Amman. On 23 September 2022, the WAFF announced that Saudi Arabia would host the tournament. [6] Iraq would host the next edition instead.[6]
Teams
Nine teams initially confirmed their participation.[7] On 13 October, both Iraq and Yemen withdrew from the competition.[8] On 20 October, it was announced that Kuwait withdrew from the competition, bringing the final number of teams to six.[9]
