The Czech Republic national under-21 football team is the national under-21 football team of the Czech Republic and is controlled by the Football Association of the Czech Republic. The team competes in the European Under-21 Football Championship, held every two years.
Although the breakup of Czechoslovakia occurred officially on January 1, 1993, the under-21 team continued until the end of the 1994 championship. After that, the Czech Republic and the Slovakia under-21s became separate footballing entities.
For both nations, first matches were played in September 1994 in qualification for the 1996 championship.
The Czech Republic under-21 team reached the quarter-finals in 1996, but failed to qualify for 1998. The team reached the final in both the 2000 and 2002 tournaments, winning the latter on penalties.
The team failed to qualify for the tournaments in 2004 and 2006, but are still considered to be one of the top 14 seeds in UEFA under-21 competition. They won qualifying group 9 ahead of Belarus and Cyprus in the 2007 competition, and now face Bosnia and Herzegovina for a place in the last 8 of the tournament as it switches to odd-numbered years.
