In Germany, Jugendfeuerwehr is for youths from 10 to 18 years. In most German states, they are not allowed to take part in real emergencies until their 16th or 18th birthday, when they may join the regular fire department. German Junior Fire Departments have tournaments called Leistungsspange against other junior firefighter sections from other fire stations at their state.
