The Professional Development League is a system of English youth football leagues that are managed, organised and controlled by the Premier League or by the Football League. It was introduced by the Football Association via the Elite Player Performance Plan in 2012.

The system was introduced in early 2012 and was active for the first time during the 2012–13 season. It is a successor to the Premier Reserve League, Premier Academy League and Football Combination. The Football League Youth Alliance makes up League 2 of the under-18 system. The system covers the under-18 and under-21 groups.

Previously, clubs participating in the Premier Reserve League (the highest level of reserve football in England) were removed from the competition if their first team in the Premier League were relegated and replaced with a promoted team. Under the Professional Development League system, Premier League reserves teams' league status is not directly linked to the first team's Premier League status. Instead, there are three different Professional Development Leagues at each age-group level and clubs in the top four tiers of the English football league system are placed in the system based on the assessment of their academy for the Elite Player Performance Plan.

The England Development League 2 is a competitive youth soccer tournament designed to foster the growth and development of emerging talent across Great Britain. Featuring under-23 and academy teams from various clubs, the league provides a professional environment for young players to showcase their skills, gain valuable match experience, and progress toward senior team opportunities. Known for its high level of competition and focus on player development, the England Development League 2 serves as a vital stepping stone in the pathway to professional football, helping to nurture the next generation of British soccer stars.
