European Junior Curling Challenge
# European Junior Curling Challenge

The European Junior Curling Challenge is an annual curling bonspiel held in the World Curling Federation's Europe zone. The championships feature curlers under the age of 21 competing to qualify for a spot in the World Junior Curling Championships. Nations that participate are those which have not already qualified for the World Junior Championships. Replacing the European Junior Curling Challenge and the Pacific-Asia Junior Curling Championships in 2016, the World Junior B Curling Championships will now serve as the qualifier for the World Junior Curling Championships.
