The 1984 UEFA European Under-21 Championship was the 4th staging of the UEFA European Under-21 Championship. The qualifying stage spanned two years (1982–84) and had 30 entrants. Albania, Iceland and Wales competed in the competition for the first time. England U-21s won the competition for the second time running.{{cite web|url=http://www.espn.co.uk/football/sport/story/95323.html#|title=Rewind to 1984: When England's Under-21s last won the European Championships | Football Rewind to|publisher=ESPN.co.uk|date=2011-06-09|access-date=2012-11-09}}{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2017/jun/13/england-under-21-european-championship-winners-1984|title= Gary Stevens reflects on the European glory days of 1984 England Under-21s|date=13 June 2017|work=Guardian|access-date=14 June 2017}}

The 30 national teams were divided into eight groups (six groups of 4 + two groups of 3). The group winners played off against each other on a two-legged home-and-away basis until the winner was decided. There was no finals tournament or third-place playoff.

Qualifying stage

=Draw=

The allocation of teams into qualifying groups was based on that of UEFA Euro 1984 qualifying tournament with several changes, reflecting the absence of some nations:

  • Groups 1, 2 and 4 included the same nations
  • Group 3 did not include Luxembourg (moved to Group 8)
  • Group 5 did not include Sweden (moved to Group 8)
  • Group 6 did not include Northern Ireland
  • Group 7 did not include Malta and Republic of Ireland
  • Group 8 composed of Sweden (moved from Group 5), Luxembourg (moved from Group 3) and France (who did not participate in senior Euro qualification)
