The 2017 Asian Girls' U18 Volleyball Championship was the eleventh edition of the Women's Asian U18 Volleyball Championship, a biennial international volleyball tournament organised by the Asian Volleyball Confederation (AVC), that year with the Chinese Volleyball Association (CVA). It was held in Chongqing, China from 5 to 13 March 2017. The tournament served as the Asian qualifiers for the 2017 FIVB Volleyball Girls' U18 World Championship held in Argentina, with the top four teams qualifying.[1]

The matches were played in only one stadium in Chongqing, the Chongqing No. 8 Secondary School Gymnasium. It was the second time that China and the first time that Chongqing hosted the tournament. As hosts, China automatically participated in the tournament, along with the remaining 10 teams (after Kazakhstan withdrew).[clarification needed].

Japan won the tournament with a 3–0 final win over China. Both finalists and the semifinalists, South Korea and Thailand, qualified for the World Championship.
