The tournament was previously played at under-20 level (except in 2003 when it was a special under-18 competition), however the AFF followed the lead of the Asian Football Confederation after they renamed its U-20 competition to fall in line with FIFA's naming conventions and also to reflect the age of the players at the competition.[1] Thailand were the champions in the first ever edition in 2002.[2]
