The 2024 World Aquatics Women's U18 Water Polo Championships was the 6th edition of the women's U18 Water Polo Championship. The tournament was played in Chengdu, China, from 15 to 22 September 2024.[1][2][3] The United States were the defending champions.[4] Spain became the world champions for the second time.

Format

[edit]

The 16 teams were divided into two divisions. The top eight teams made Division 1 and the other eight teams Division 2. Both divisions were split into two groups of four teams. The top two teams from each group of Division 1 advanced directly to the quarterfinals, while the other two teams from each group played against one of the top two sides from each group in Division 2 in the crossover round. Starting with quarterfinals onward, the regular knock-out system was used.
