The Myanmar women’s team is based on the Vietnam SEA Games team and some players from the U-18 women’s team have been selected.
The 2022 ASEAN Women’s Championship will be held in the Philippines from 4 to 17 July with team Myanmar placing into Group B together with SEA Games gold medallist Viet Nam, Cambodia, Timor-Leste, and Laos. — Ko Nyi Lay/GNLM
