The Ukrainian WU-17 women's team will participate in Group A of the competition among 28 teams, including current European champions Netherlands and seven teams that advanced from League B based on the second round results of Euro-2025 (WU-17).

During the draw, participants were divided into seven groups. In each group, a mini-tournament will be held on one of the teams' home field by December 2. Teams that finish in last place will continue their season in League B's second round. The seeding for the second qualifying round of Euro-2026 (WU-17) will depend on the positions teams take in their respective groups during the first round.

The Ukrainian team, by the draw's luck, landed in Group A6 along with Austria, Switzerland and Romania. The home team for our group’s mini-tournament will be determined later.
