Spain has won the bronze medal at the UEFA Women's Under-18 Championship held in Finland after beating England 3.5 to 1.5. Ireland was crowned the new European Under-18 champion after defeating Sweden 4-1 in the final.

Second in the first phase, a victory against the Czech Republic in the quarterfinals and a setback against Sweden in the semifinals constituted the prelude to a performance characterized by the solidity against England in the last match of the competition.

Rocío Sánchez and Camilla Hedberg secured the first point for Spain against Alexandra Peters and Haley Davis in a hard-fought match, evenly matched until the 13th hole but tilting in Spain's favor from that point onward. Anna Arrese and Ana Fernández de Mesa were unable to replicate their victory on the 17th hole, despite a fiercely competitive duel. The Spanish pair held the lead even on the 16th hole, but the match extended to the 23rd, when the English duo of Kelly Tidy and Heidi Baek delivered the decisive blow.

With the score tied 1-1, Spain demonstrated its superiority in the singles matches. Rocío Sánchez found her path to victory, especially in the second round, gaining a three-hole lead on the 13th that proved insurmountable for Kelly Tidy, who succumbed 3&2. Anna Arrese achieved the same result against Heidi Baek – also dominating with a clear advantage – making the outcome of the match between Camilla Hedberg and Alexandra Peters, which was very close from start to finish, unnecessary.
