Specifically, Spain won the European Championship in 1964, 2008, and 2012. Meanwhile, Germany won the competition in 1972, 1980, and 1996.

France has been crowned champion twice, in 1984 and 2000. Several other countries have also won the European Championship. They are Russia (formerly the Soviet Union, 1960), Italy (1968), the Czech Republic (1976), the Netherlands (1988), Denmark (1992), and Greece (2004).

The championship was last held in France in 2016 and was participated in by 24 countries. Portugal emerged as the winner, while the host team became the runner-up.

The European Championship is held every four years. The competition, which was supposed to be held last year, was postponed to 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic that swept the world.
