Held earlier this month, both the U16 National Team and Young Matildas found out their qualification path to the 2017 AFC Women’s U-16 and U-19 Championships.

The U17s path sees them join Uzbekistan, Hong Kong, Palestine, Iraq and hosts Vietnam in Group D with the group matches scheduled from 27 August to 4 September 2016.

Meanwhile the U19 team have been named the top seed in a Group A that features Jordan, Lebabon, Singapore and the Northern Mariana Islands.  Group play will run from 29 October–6 November 2016 with a venue yet to be confirmed.

For both the U16 and U19, the equation is simple; first place in the group will see them qualify for the 2017 AFC Women’s U-16 and U-19 Championships.
