Vietnam won their second consecutive title after defeating Kazakhstan in a straight-sets final. The host Philippines defeated Australia in a straight-sets 3rd place match and took the bronze medal. Nguyễn Thị Bích Tuyền was named as the MVP of the tournament.
Host selection
The Philippines had submitted its bid to host the tournament by December 2023.
Qualification
Following AVC regulations, the maximum of 12 teams for the next AVC Challenge Cup was selected through the following criteria:
1 team for the host country
1 team: the defending champion from the previous edition (2023)
5 other top-ranked teams from the previous edition
5 other entrant teams with consideration given for FIVB world rankings
Total number of victories (matches won, matches lost)
In the event of a tie, the following first tiebreaker will apply: The teams will be ranked by the most point gained per match as follows:
Match won 3–0 or 3–1: 3 points for the winner, 0 points for the loser
Match won 3–2: 2 points for the winner, 1 point for the loser
Match forfeited: 3 points for the winner, 0 points (0–25, 0–25, 0–25) for the loser
If teams are still tied after examining the number of victories and points gained, then the AVC will examine the results in order to break the tie in the following order:
Set quotient: if two or more teams are tied on the number of points gained, they will be ranked by the quotient resulting from the division of the number of all set won by the number of all sets lost.
Points quotient: if the tie persists based on the set quotient, the teams will be ranked by the quotient resulting from the division of all points scored by the total of points lost during all sets.
If the tie persists based on the point quotient, the tie will be broken based on the team that won the match of the Round Robin Phase between the tied teams. When the tie in point quotient is between three or more teams, these teams ranked taking into consideration only the matches involving the teams in question.
