U19 Tables
I have not yet discovered the exact makeup of the FA Premier Academy
leagues for this season yet - I'm guessing (from fixture lists) there
are now four 9 or 10-team conferences for the U19s.
Arsenal are in what appears
to be a southern/midlands section, make-up again guessed/deduced from the fixture lists,
though it seems to have changed again from last season.
NB Probably inaccurate and incomplete.

U17 Tables
From next year there will
be only one premier academy league competition, and for this reason some clubs
have already dispensed with their U17 teams. There are thus slightly fewer teams
in the league this year, but I have yet to confirm whether there are 4 conferences
of 7/8 teams.
NB may be incomplete and inaccurate
