Derby will play the following teams in the Under 18 Premier League North: Blackburn Rovers, Everton, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, Middlesbrough, Newcastle United, Sunderland, Stoke City, West Bromwich Albion and Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The top four teams from North and South will go into Group 1, teams in fifth and eighth in North & South will make up Group 2 and the bottom four clubs in North & South will go into Group 3.
In the final round of fixtures, clubs will play each opposing team in their own group once and the winners of Group 1 will become the Barclays Under 18 Premier League Champions.
