Europe is home to some of the world’s strongest flag football nations, boasting six of the world’s top 10-ranked men’s teams and five of the women’s. The continent was awarded more World Championships qualifying berths than any other based on teams’ performances last year.
Reigning continental champions Great Britain (Women) and Germany (Men) will expect to face fierce competition in Paris from Austria, Europe’s top-ranked nation in both men’s and women’s flag football.
In the women’s competition, Spain were the beaten finalists in 2023 having been crowned champions of Europe six years ago. Hosts France are ranked 11th in the world and will also be targeting a podium spot in front of home fans who turned the French capital into a sea of blue, white and red during last year’s Olympics.
Among the men’s challengers are Switzerland, bronze medalists at the 2024 IFAF world championships, hosts France and Italy who are ranked fifth and sixth in the world respectively. Israel always produces high scoring games while Denmark dominated the Euros from 2009 to 2019, winning six straight titles.

Games played on Fields 1, 2, 3, and 4 will be streamed live at IFAF.TV with all teams featured on the live feed during the opening two days.
The 24 men’s Euro Flag teams have been placed into four groups of six teams, while in the women’s competition, the 19 teams are divided into three groups of five teams and one group of four.
