The Football Conference Youth Alliance (known sometimes as the Conference Youth Alliance) was formed in 2005 as the official U19s Youth League for professional teams, semi-professional and for non-league teams who compete in the Football Conference league and respective non-league competitions in England. Teams who compete in the Football Conference Youth Alliance combine football training with education, offering 16-18 year olds the chance to play elite youth football at U19s level and gain academic qualifications at BTEC National or Diploma level, operating on a similar model to that of the Football League Youth Alliance and FA Premier Academy League.

The league comprises seven divisions (North, Central, Southern Premier and Southern A, B, and C). The title winners of each of the seven Football Conference Youth Alliance divisions go into a Championship Play Off to find the National Football Conference Youth Alliance Champion each season.

Current structure[]

The competition is currently (as of 2011–12) contested by 70 clubs, split into six regional conferences: North (10 teams), Central (12 teams), South Premier (12 teams), South A (12 teams), South B (12 teams) and South C (12 teams).
