2020 Asian Water Polo Championship

The 2020 Asian Water Polo Championship was a water polo scheduled event which was to take place in Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan, between 12 and 16 February 2020.[1] In late January the games were cancelled due to the international coronavirus pandemic.[2] Since the event was the Asian continental qualification for the 2020 Olympic water polo tournament, the Asia Swimming Federation decided to use the final ranking of the 2018 Asian Games to allocate its continental quotas in mid-February.[3]
