England national under-16 football team, also known as England under-16s or England U16(s), represents Englandinassociation football at an under-16 age level and is controlled by the Football Association, the governing body for football in England.
Between 1925 and 2014, the England under-16 team competed in the annual Victory Shield tournament against Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Since World War II, England had won the Victory Shield outright thirty-five times and had been joint winners with Scotland eight times, with Wales twice and with both Scotland and Wales twice.[2] However, in April 2015, the Football Association decided to withdraw from the tournament "for the foreseeable future" with the stated aim of replacing it with matches against European and global opposition.[3]
England have competed at the annual Montaigu Tournament, held in Montaigu, France.[4] England won the competition on three occasions between 2008 and 2015, defeating hosts France in the final on all three occasions. In 2008 and 2011, England won in a penalty shoot-out after a 0–0 draw,[5][6] while in 2015 they won the final outright 3–1.[7] After an eight year wait England were champions again as they defeated Japan on penalties in the final of what was the fiftieth edition of the tournament in April 2023.[8]
