Czech republic

The home team, managed by Jaroslav Korčák, keep it no secret they have the highest ambitions. Czech players consider it almost their obligation not only to win a medal, but to defend the gold medals for the best junior team of the Old Continent. In order to make that happen, the Czechs have to succeed in the round robin and make their way into the final game, which will be played on Saturday July 18^th at 18:00. All Czech players, as well as their numerous fans, believe that it will all work out for the best.

In the history of the European Championship Junior Men, which dates back to 1998, the Czech team has won gold six times, and was defeated by the Danish team twice (2004 and 2009). This makes the Czech national team the most successful squad in terms of European junior medals.

At the last championship tournament, the Czechs won all their games, and handed the Danish a tough 7-0 defeat in the final game, which also meant that the Czech clinched a spot at the Junior World Championships in Canada, where they finished with a 3-8 record and took the no. 8 position (2 spots higher than in 2012).
