2019-20 Under-18 League 2
From YouthHawk
The 2018-19 Under-18 League 2, or Under-18s Professional Development League 2 as it is sometimes referred to, is the seventh campaign of post-EPPP Under-18 football's second tier, designed for those academies with Category 2 status. The league is split regionally into north and south divisions, with each team facing opponents in their own region twice both home and away and opponents in the other region once home OR away. The sides finishing in the top two positions in both regions at the end of the season will progress to a knockout stage to determine the overall league champion. Sheffield Wednesday are the defending champions.
Wigan Athletic acquired Category Two status in July 2019 and will join the North division this season.
