Southeast Asian Youth Athletics Championships

The Southeast Asian Youth Athletics Championships is an annual athletics competition between youth athletes (under-18) from Southeast Asian nations which is organised by the Southeast Asian Athletics Association. The event, first held in 2006, was formerly known as the Southeast Asian Junior Championships,[1] though entries have always been for under-18 athletes, rather than the international standard of "junior" signifying under-20 athletics.

The competition serves as a regional complement to the biennial, continental Asian Junior Athletics Championships.[2] Since 2009, athletics has also been held for youths in the region at the annual ASEAN School Games.[3] A separate ASEAN Schools Athletics Championships was first held in 1977.[4]
