On November 3, the draw for the preliminary and main rounds of the Euro-2023 (U-19) futsal qualifiers took place. As a result, Ukraine's youth team was placed in Group 2 of the main round, where they will face Romania, Serbia, and the winner of Group B from the preliminary round (Montenegro, San Marino, Gibraltar). The mini-tournament will be held by Serbia between March 21-26.

Accordingly, Montenegro's team has qualified for our group after winning the mini-tournament that took place in Gibraltar on January 19-21. The Balkan team defeated San Marino (2:1) and Gibraltar (6:5).

The venue for the final tournament of the Euro-2022/2023 futsal championship among under-19 boys was designated as Poreč (Croatia). In addition to the hosts, Croatia, seven national teams will participate in the final stage from September 3-10. These teams will be determined after the second qualification round, which will conclude on March 26. The format of the final tournament remains the same: eight participants will play in two groups of four teams each, with the top two from each group advancing to the semifinals.

The inaugural European futsal championship for youth was held in Rijeka in 2019, and the second edition took place in Hain in 2022 — both times (2019, 2022) Spain's team emerged as champions. The second championship was initially planned for 2021 but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Ukraine's national team participated in both final tournaments. In 2019, Vitaliy Odegov's wards secured third place in their group, while in 2022 they were eliminated in the semifinals.
