The Bulgaria national under-18 and under-19 basketball team is the national representative for Bulgaria in international under-18 and under-19 (under age 19 and under age 18) basketball tournaments.[1] They are controlled by the Bulgarian Basketball Federation. The team competes at the FIBA U18 European Championship, with the chance to qualify for the FIBA Under-19 World Cup.

Bulgaria competed at the 2011 FIBA U18 European Championship Division B, and won their first gold medal at the tournament overall. However, the team has struggled over the past few years, trying to reach the pinnacle once again. Bulgaria would finish in 12th place in 2016,[2] though they would bounce back to reach the quarter-finals in 2017.[3] In 2018,[4] and in 2019,[5] the team would display mediocre performances.
