The 2023 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship was the 20th edition of the UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship, the annual international youth football championship organised by UEFA for the women's under-19 national teams of Europe. Belgium hosted the tournament on 18–30 July.[2] It was the first women's final tournament held in Belgium.[3] A total of eight teams played in the tournament, with players born on or after 1 January 2004 eligible to participate.
Similar to the previous editions held in odd-numbered years, the tournament acted as the UEFA qualifiers for the FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup. The top four teams of the tournament qualified for the 2024 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup in Colombia as the UEFA representatives. However, on 4 October 2023, after the announcement of the expansion of the 2024 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup to 24 teams, a new fifth spot was allocated to UEFA and the winner of a play-off between the group stage third-placed teams would take this fifth spot.[4][5]
Spain were the defending champions and successfully defended the title after beating Germany in the final.
