Latvia's national Under-21 football team, also known as Latvia Under-21s or Latvia U-21s, is considered to be the feeder team for the Latvia national football team.
This team is for Latvian players aged 21 or under at the start of a two-year European Under-21 Football Championship campaign, so players can be, and often are, up to 23 years old. Also in existence are teams for Under-20s (for non-UEFA tournaments), Under-19s and Under 17s. As long as they are eligible, players can play at any level, making it possible to play for the U-21s, senior side and again for the U-21s, as Jevgēņijs Kosmačovs and Aleksejs Višņakovs have done recently. It is also possible to play for one country at youth level and another at senior level (providing the player is eligible).

Players born in 1984 or later are eligible for the 2006-07 UEFA European U-21 Championship, players born in 1986 or later are eligible for the 2007-09 UEFA European U-21 Championship, and so on. The Under-19 team will be the most obvious source of the next crop of Under-21s.
