  • For the U21 Championships tournaments, the composition of the pools will be the responsibility of EuroHockey and will be based on the FIH U21 World Ranking. (At the moment the match schedules are prepared).
  • The withdrawal date for all tournaments in these competitions is 15 January 2024.   
    Any National Association withdrawing after that date may be subject to a fine or other disciplinary action by the EuroHockey. See current EHF Regulations for further details. 
  • To be eligible to participate in EuroHockey U21 Championships 2024, players must be born on, or after, 1st January 2003.
