From the 1990-91 season, over-age players were no longer allowed to take part in Under-21 internationals (unless there was prior agreement from opponents for friendly games). For each two-year cycle of the UEFA Under-21 Championship, all players had to be under 21 years of age at the beginning of the group stage e.g. before 1st August 1990 for the competition ending in 1992.

From the 1994-95 season, it appears that the age-restriction date was changed from 1st August back to 1st January, so as long as players were under 21 years of age at the beginning of the year in which the group stage of the UEFA Under-21 Championship began, they were eligible to take part. This meant that a player could be 23 years old at the conclusion of the competition.
