Also in the Youth 9-Ball Championships, the EPBF was by far the most successful federation. In the Under 17s division, Moritz Neuhausen (GER) took the title while Jonas Souto (ESP) defeated Sanjin Pehlivanovic (BIH) in the final match of the Under 19s. Valeria Trushevskaia (RUS) completed the European Medal collection with a Bronze Medal in the girls division.
