Over four hundred junior boys’ and girls’ boxers are registered for the event, from thirty-two countries, which is the highest number in the last five years. Boxers born in 2007 and 2008 are eligible to participate, and this is going to be 27th European Championships in this age group, with the first held in the city of Aosta, Italy in 1996, and the last in Montesilvano, Italy last year.
