Even though it failed in the semifinals, Indonesia is certain to have received a ticket to the 2025 U-21 Volleyball World Championship. Garuda Muda got a ticket with three other semifinalists.
This achievement met Indonesia's target. Before the 2024 U-20 AVC took place, PBVSI did set a target to qualify for the 2025 U-21 World Championships.
The host of the event has not yet been announced. Indonesia intends to propose to be the organizer of the prestigious event.
