This is a link to the official Fide events for 2012. A couple of things worth noting is that they have moved the Euroyouths at Prague to August which follows closely on to the EU youth at Mureck, Austria. If we were going to use additional events, then the Czech Open at Pardubice (incorporating the European Amateurs Championship) is a strong possible. I have written a previous piece a while back labelled the Czech Open for older juniors. Guys like Alan Tate will probably want to concentrate totally on their own norm chase, but it always has strong Scottish players of 2000+ level in other sections, who may wish to help, but we can't expect them to do it for free.
