2021/22 Women's Under-17 EURO round 2: Netherlands, Finland, France, Germany, Denmark, Norway, Spain in finals

Round 2 of the new UEFA Nations League-style UEFA European Women's Under-17 Championship decided which seven teams join hosts Bosnia and Herzegovina in the finals from 3 to 15 May, as well as shaping promotion and relegation between Leagues A and B. The finals draw was made on 5 April in Sarajevo.

 
League A consisted of 28 teams, including the seven promoted from League B during round 1 in the autumn. They competed in seven groups; from these single-venue mini-tournaments, the winners will qualified for the finals.

The teams in League B (including seven sides relegated from League A in round 1) were competing for promotion to League A in six groups. Bosnia and Herzegovina took part, although their finals place was assured as hosts.

Promotions and relegations between Leagues A and B before round 1 of the 2022/23 edition were also decided ahead of the draw on 31 May.

League A

• Group winners join hosts Bosnia and Herzegovina in the final tournament from 3 to 15 May.
• Germany won the last edition of the tournament in 2018/19, and seven of the 12 completed seasons: needing victory from their group decider against Austria, they fell 2-0 down having had a player sent off, but turned the game to prevail 3-2 with three goals in the space of five minutes.
• Spain are four-time champions and Poland (who have not qualified this time) the only other victors, in 2012/13.
