UEFA Women's Euro Tournaments : 1997-2022

There have been sanctioned Euros for women for many years, usually four teams in a knock out format. In 1997, teams played in groups of four, with knock out games thereafter. That is where this blog article takes up the story.

Looking at the list below, one can see that Germany is the most successful country. The first five tournaments were won by them. However, as standards and depth improved, it became harder for a single country to dominate proceedings. The lat two held have been won by other nations, the Netherlands and England. 

How many points have been accrued for each attendance is under the 'Avg' column. So while Austria for example has only been to two events, it has performed well in those so has a high average as a result. 

The different coloured square for Russia in 2022 shows that while they qualified to attend, they were disqualified and Portugal took that country's place. The next tournament will be held in 2025.
