The UEFA European Under-17 Championship consists of three distinct stages: the qualifying round, the elite round and the final tournament.
The qualifying round, played in autumn, is made up of 13 groups of four teams playing in one-venue mini-tournaments. The top two from each progress alongside the two third-placed teams with the best record against the top pair in their group.
In the elite round, played in early spring, those 28 qualifiers compete in seven mini-tournament groups of four. The group winners progress to the finals.
