UEFA European Championship

The UEFA European Football Championship, sometimes known as the European Championship or the Euros, is the main association football competition organized by the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA). The competition is contested by senior men's national teams from UEFA members, with the goal of selecting Europe's continental champion.

Since 1960, the tournament has been conducted every four years, with the exception of 2020, when it was postponed until 2021 owing to the COVID-19 epidemic in Europe, although the name Euro 2020 was retained. It was initially called the European Nations' Cup and was scheduled to take place in the even-numbered year between FIFA World Cup competitions. It was renamed to its current name in 1968. Individual tournaments have been marketed as "UEFA Euro" since 1996.

The UEFA European Championship is a quadrennial tournament that takes place in even-numbered years between World Cups, so it is one of the finest soccer events on the continent, and it selects the Union of European Football Associations champion (UEFA). A total of 24 national teams have qualified to compete for the coveted title of European Champion. The winners of the European Championships are invited to compete in the FIFA Confederations Cup. Nine different national teams have won 14 European Championship events so far. CONCAF is one of the world's six biggest football unions, along with Conmebol in Latin America, CAF in Africa, AFC in Asia, UEFA in Europe, and OFC in Oceania.
