The 2017 European Junior Championship was the 13th European Junior Championship. It was held from July 14 to July 16, 2017 in Paris.

Qualification

A total of eight teams reported to enter for qualification. Therefore, two four-nation tournaments were scheduled, with the winners of these tournaments earning a spot for the final tournament in Paris. Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, and Switzerland were grouped together while the other tournament was planned with Serbia, Italy, Russia and Hungary. As a consequence of the conflict of two organisations, both claiming to be the real IFAF, some weeks before the start of the qualification, a second European Junior Championship was announced to be held in Denmark. Russia and Hungary thus withdrew their participation in the Serbian qualification tournament.

Tournament in Serbia

Russia and Hungary withdrew. Italy qualified by a victory over host Serbia.
