The '''Asian Netball Championship''' is a netball competition held every two years with teams from across Asia competing. First 7 editions were held every four years, then changed to every two years starting from 2012. Sri Lanka is the reigning champion of the tournament and also the most successful team, having won the Asian Netball Championships 6 times. Singapore has 3 championships and Malaysia has two. From the first edition of the tournament held in 1985, Sri Lanka, Singapore and Malaysia have dominated by always finishing within the top three. The only exception is the 3rd edition of the tournament held in 1993 where host nation Hong Kong won the championship.
