The 2015–16 National Youth League (Also known as the Foxtel National Youth League for sponsorship reasons) was the eighth season of the Australian National Youth League competition.
From 2016, all A-League clubs now have youth teams entered into their local conferences of the National Premier Leagues.
By having NPL teams, there is now less reliance on the NYL to provide an avenue for youth players to their respective clubs.
There was also pressure from A-League clubs to reduce travel budgets.
After the home and away series a Grand Final was played between the top teams from each conference.
