The 2018–19 Professional U23 Development League is the seventh season of the Professional Development League system.

Professional Development League
The Professional Development League season is the seventh campaign of post-EPPP Under-23 football's second tier, designed for those academies with Category 2 status. A total of 20 teams are 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 for a total of 28 games. 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. Bolton Wanderers are the defending champions. Huddersfield Town dropped out of the league at the end of the 2017-18 campaign as part of their academy restructuring process.
