The Young Lions are in Group A, whilst Group B contains France, Spain, Serbia and Turkey who will be based in Mariupol.
Brian Eastick’s team sealed their place in the Finals courtesy of a 100 per cent record in their Elite Round group just two weeks ago with victories over Bosnia-Herzegovina, Slovakia and Scotland.
The finals kick off on 21 July, with the top two in each section after the three group games have been played progressing to the semi-finals, which will be held in Donetsk and Mariupol on 30 July. The final will then take place at the Olimpiyskyi Stadium in Donetsk on 2 August.
