Great Britain women are through to the last four as they aim to defend their title at the European Flag Football Championships.<\/b><\/p>\n

After topping their group with a 100% record from four games, GB beat Slovenia 51-14 in the quarter-finals in Paris on Friday.<\/p>\n

The European champions will now take on hosts France on Saturday (07:00 BST) while Spain – who GB beat in the 2023 final – face world number two Austria in the other semi-final. The winners will meet in the final at 13:15 BST.<\/p>\n

GB women came into the European Championships in encouraging form having claimed a fifth-placed finish in their maiden World Games<\/a> last month, when only the women’s event was contested.<\/p>\n

The GB men’s team has also reached Saturday’s semi-finals, where they will face Italy (08:15 BST). France take on Austria in the other semi, with the winners to contest the final at 14:30 BST.<\/p>\n

After winning four of their five group games, GB’s men beat Denmark 32-19 in the quarter-finals to ensure they will improve on their sixth-placed finish in Ireland in 2023.<\/p>\n

The semi-finalists in each event have all qualified for next year’s World Championships in Germany.<\/p>\n

Ranking points are also on offer in Paris as the teams prepare for flag football to make its Olympic debut at the Los Angeles 2028 Games.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
