DRAW PROCEDURE
Qualifying rounds
14th UEFA European Under-17 and Under-19 Championships, 2014/15
Please find below details of the coefficient calculation and draw procedure.
COMPETITION SYSTEM
Fifty-four member associations will take part in each competition. Fifty-two teams will enter the
competitions in the qualifying round and one (Germany at Under-17 level and Spain at Under-19 level)
will join in the elite round. The final round host associations qualify automatically for the final round:
UNDER-17 = BULGARIA, UNDER-19 = GREECE
COEFFICIENT RANKING LIST
A coefficient ranking list has been established for the 2014/15 qualifying round draws according to the
following principles.
•
Seasons taken into account: 2010/11, 2011/12 and 2012/13.
- All qualifying round matches (qualifying and elite rounds) have been taken into consideration to
calculate the coefficients.
•
Win = 3 points; draw = 1 point; defeat = 0 points.
•
For the associations that hosted a final round in any of the three aforementioned seasons, the
coefficient of the 2009/10 season has also been taken into account.
- 2010/11: Under-17 = Serbia, Under-19 = Romania
- 2011/12: Under-17 = Slovenia, Under-19 = Estonia
- 2012/13: Under-17 = Slovakia, Under-19 = Lithuania
•
The following bonus points have been awarded:
- automatic qualification for the elite round = 3 points
- qualification from the qualifying round to the elite round = 3 points
- qualification from the elite round to the final round = 3 points
- competition winner = 3 points
 2010/11: Under-17 = the Netherlands, Under-19 = Spain
 2011/12: Under-17 = the Netherlands, Under-19 = Spain
 2012/13: Under-17 = Russia, Under-19 = Serbia
- competition runners-up = 2 points
 2010/11: Under-17 = Germany, Under-19 = Czech Republic
 2011/12: Under-17 = Germany, Under-19 = Greece
 2012/13: Under-17 = Italy, Under-19 = France
- competition semi-finalists = 1 point
 2010/11: Under-17 = England and Denmark, Under-19 = Serbia and the Republic of Ireland
 2011/12: Under-17 = Poland and Georgia, Under-19 = England and France
 2012/13: Under-17 = Slovakia and Sweden, Under-19 = Portugal and Spain
•
The coefficient calculation for each season consists of adding the number of points obtained
(including bonus points) and dividing the total by the number of matches.

•
The three annual coefficient calculations have then been added together to produce the overall
coefficient used for the ranking list.
•
Associations with the same overall coefficient have been separated according to the following
criteria:
1. higher number of matches.
2. higher coefficient from the most recent season, i.e. 2012/13.
3. higher coefficient from the next most recent seasons, i.e. 2011/12 and 2010/11.
4. superior goal difference from the most recent season, i.e. 2012/13.
DRAW PROCEDURE FOR THE QUALIFYING ROUND
The associations ranked in first position qualify directly for the elite round (Germany for the Under-17s
and Spain for the Under-19s).
The remaining 52 associations ranked in positions 2 to 53 have been split into 2 pots, as follows:
Pot A (Under-17 = yellow balls, Under-19 = blue balls)
Associations ranked from 2 to 27 (26 teams)
Pot B (Under-17 = red balls, Under-19 = green balls)
Associations ranked from 28 to 53 (26 teams)
The 52 associations will be drawn into 13 groups of 4 teams according to the following procedure:
•
Two balls will be drawn from Pot A into Group 1. The team drawn first will be put in the first position
in the group and the team drawn second into second position.
•
Two balls will then be drawn from Pot B into Group 1. The team drawn first will be put in the third
position in the group and the team drawn second into fourth position.
•
Once Group 1 is completed the same procedure will be followed to form Groups 2 to 13.
In the Under-17 championship, the 13 group winners and runners-up, as well as the five best thirdranked teams across all 13 groups, will qualify for the elite round (31 teams in all).
In the Under-19 championship, the 13 group winners and the 13 group runners-up, as well as the best
third-ranked team across all 13 groups, will qualify for the elite round (27 teams in all).
SPECIAL CASE
Based on previous decisions of the UEFA Executive Committee, Russia and Georgia cannot play each
other in their respective countries. Consequently, if Russia and Georgia are drawn into the same group,
neither will host the mini-tournament. The same case applies if Armenia and Azerbaijan are drawn into
the same group.
Following a decision taken by the UEFA Emergency Panel, Spain and Gibraltar cannot be drawn in the
same group.
ELITE ROUND
Draws will be held to form the eight groups of four teams (Under-17) and seven groups of four teams
(Under-19). The definitive draw procedures will be communicated to the associations concerned on
completion of the qualifying rounds.
In the Under-17 championship, the eight group winners and the seven best runners-up will qualify for
the final round.
In the Under-19 championship, the seven group winners will qualify for the final round.
