The draw for the second qualifying round of UEFA Euro 2026 (U17 Women) will take place on December 11, with Ukraine's national team participating (players born in 2009 or later). The ceremony starts at 10:30 AM Kyiv time.

As a reminder, Lyudmila Lemeshko's protégés finished last in their Group A league after the first qualifying round and were relegated to League B, thus losing their chance to qualify for Euro 2026 (WU-17). Before the draw for the second round, blue-and-yellow were placed in Pot 1 of Division 2.

Based on the results of the first qualifying round for Euro 2026 (WU-17), 21 teams that will compete in League B will be divided into three groups of four and three groups of three. These national teams will fight for promotion to Group A in mini-tournaments this spring.
