Papua New Guinea won the tournament by defeating Hong Kong in the final, thus qualifying for the 2002 Under-19 World Cup in New Zealand. Two PNG players, Frank Joseph and Greg Baeau, led the tournament in runs and wickets, respectively. The only century at the tournament was scored by a Fijian, Colin Rika.

The tournament, featuring only three teams, was organised by ICC East Asia-Pacific (EAP), and was the inaugural edition of the EAP Under-19 Trophy. Previously, EAP teams had had to qualify via the Youth Asia Cup, an Asian Cricket Council (ACC) tournament. For the next two World Cups, in 2004 and 2006, the EAP organised joint qualification tournaments with the African Cricket Association, held in 2003 and 2005. Separate qualifying tournaments have been held since then.

gollark: Oh, like osmarksarchiveformat™.
gollark: So the obvious way to do this is to just implement algebraic effects *as* exceptions.
gollark: Wrong.
gollark: I really feel like it's underappreciated as an esolang.
gollark: osmarkscalculator™ doesn't have this issue because it has no file IO.
