ConIFA European Football Cup 2017


Held in Turkish Cyprus.

Turkish Cyprus qualified as host.  Padania qualified as holder.  Abkhazia qualified as ConIFA World Football Cup winner.
Five other teams qualified as a result of a vote by ConIFA members: these were Ellan Vannin, County of Nice, Occitania, Sápmi, and Székely Land.
Due to later adjustments, Occitania was replaced by Kárpátalja, Sápmi was replaced by South Ossetia, and County of Nice was replaced by Felvidék.
