On June 7 in Nyon, Switzerland, the draw for the first round of qualification for the UEFA Women's Under-17 Championship 2024/2025 will take place.

According to a statement on the official UEFA website, the procedure will begin at 11:00 AM Kyiv time. It will determine the composition of groups in both leagues, as well as the hosts for mini-tournaments. Matches will take place from July 1 to December 3, 2024.

League A

In League A, 28 teams will compete, including the current champion Spain and seven teams that moved up from League B after the second round of Euro-2023/2024. The participants will be divided into seven groups. Teams in each group will play on the home ground of one of the participating teams in a mini-tournament format.

The teams finishing fourth will continue their season in the second round of League B. The seeding for the second round will depend on the positions that teams occupy in their groups during the first round. The Faroe Islands will also participate despite having a direct qualification to the final stage as hosts.

League B

In League B, 21 teams will compete (including those that dropped from League A in the second round of Euro-2023/2024). These national teams will battle for promotion to League A across six groups. The group winners and runners-up with the best results against first and third-placed teams in their groups will advance to a higher division.

Qualification for the final stage

In early 2025, the second round of qualification will take place. Based on the results in League A, seven teams will be determined to join the Faroe Islands in the final stage.
