The2023 WAFF U-17 Girls Championship was the fourth edition of theWAFF U-17 Girls Championship, the internationalwomen's football youth championship ofWestern Asia organized by theWest Asian Football Federation (WAFF). The final tournament was originally scheduled to be held inLebanon.[1] However, the tournament was relocated toJordan due to the adjacentGaza war.[2]
Lebanon were two-time defending champions, having won the last two editions, but failed to defend their title, falling short of the final. Instead, they played in the third-place match and secured the bronze medal. On the other hand,Syria were crowned champions after defeating hosts Jordan 1–0 in the final.[3][4] This marked Syria's first-ever major title in women's football across all age categories.[5][6]
