The ASEAN Schools Sports Council is an apolitical regional sports organization that promotes sports among ASEAN member countries. This sport organization was formed in 1978 to coordinate championship programs and activities in ASEAN countries. In 2008 the ASSC members agreed to adopt a multi-sport format similar to the Southeast Asian Games (SEA Games) for its competitions, and this gave birth to ASEAN School Games [1]
