2023/24 Women's Under-17 EURO round 1 draw: 16 June
https://www.uefa.com/womensunder17/news ... w-16-june/
The draw will set the groups in both leagues for the first stage of the 2023/24 edition.
The 2023/24 UEFA European Women's Under-17 Championship round 1 draw streamed at 10:00 CET on Friday 16 June will set the groups in both leagues for the mini-tournaments in autumn.
League A will include 28 teams, including defending champions France and the seven nations promoted from League B after round 2 of the 2022/23 edition this spring. They will be drawn into seven groups; from these single-venue mini-tournaments, the teams finishing fourth will be relegated to League B for 2023/24 round 2, with the other positions deciding seeding for League A in that round. Sweden will take part, although their finals place is assured as hosts.
The 22 teams in League B (including sides relegated from League A in 2022/23 round 2, plus Andorra and Malta returning to the competition) will play for promotion to League A in six groups. The six group winners and the runners-up with the best record against the teams first and third in their section will be promoted. League A round 2 will decide the seven teams joining Sweden in the 2024 finals.
Draw procedure
In Round 1, the 50 entrants are split into League A (28 teams) and League B (22 teams) based on the rankings after 2022/23 round 2. In League A, teams are drawn into seven groups of four, while in League B there will be two groups of four and four groups of three.
Within each league, teams are allocated to four pots (League A – seven in each from Pots 1 to 4; League B – six in in Pots 1 and 2, ten in Pot 3). In League A, every group contains one team from each pot. In League B, every group contains one team from each of Pots 1 and 2; from Pot 3, two teams are drawn into each of Groups B1, B2, B3 and B4, with one drawn into each of the other two groups.
In League B, the draw starts with Pot 1, continues with Pot 2, and concludes with Pot 3. Each pot is emptied entirely before proceeding to the next pot.
As a rule, and for each pot, the teams drawn are allocated in numerical order from Group B1 to Group B6. If the draw condition applies or is anticipated to apply, the team drawn is allocated to the first available group in numerical order. For pot 3, teams are allocated to the third position of each group before the fourth positions are filled.
In League A, the draw starts with Pot 1, continues with Pot 2, then Pot 3, and concludes with Pot 4. Each pot is emptied entirely before proceeding to the next pot.
As a rule, and for each pot, the teams drawn are allocated in numerical order from Group A1 to Group A7.
As decided by the UEFA Executive Committee and the UEFA Emergency Panel, the following pairs of teams cannot be drawn in the same group:
League A: Belarus and Ukraine
League B: Armenia and Azerbaijan
If the prohibited clash occurs or could occur, the team drawn is placed in the first available group in numerical order. Should the prohibited clash be possible when drawing the last groups, the teams will be drawn and will be assigned to the groups in line with the draw conditions.
Hosts will be appointed for each mini-tournament, to be played between 1 August and 20 November 2023.

It was an entertaining 2:2 draw between Italy and Scotland earlier on in Cosenza.
The late penalty Italy converted qualified both teams for Round 2 in League A.
The late penalty Italy converted qualified both teams for Round 2 in League A.
Slovenia lost all three matches in this group, so regardless of what happened in Scotland vs Italy, both teams were through to League A Round 2 before the ball was kicked.
The late goal by Italy did put them in second place instead of third, so they would get a better seeding (theoretically) in League A Round 2.
Thanks for the correction!
