The 1977 IIHF European U18 Championship was the tenth playing of the IIHF European Junior Championships. With the creation of the World Junior Hockey Championships, which used players under the age of 20, the European championships adjusted the age limitation to being under 18.

Group A

Played in Bremerhaven West Germany from April 1–10, 1977. Romania was to participate but withdrew (and forfeited) in the aftermath of the earthquake that hit the area in March of that year.[1]
