- 2002 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship
The UEFA U-21 Championship 2002, which spanned two years (2000-2002), had 47 entrants. Of the teams to reach the final eight, Switzerland were chosen as the hosts.
Czech Republic U-21s won the competition for the first time.
The 47 national teams were divided into nine groups (one group of four + five groups of 5 + three groups of 6). The records of the nine group runners-up were then compared. The top seven joined the nine winners in a play-off for the eight finals spots. One of the eight qualifiers was then chosen to host the remaining fixtures.
