At the end of the season, the team which finished top of Division 1 was crowned as overall League 1 champions, and the bottom two teams in Division 1 will be relegated to Division 2 for the 2016–17 season.{{cite web |url=http://www.premierleague.com/en-gb/news/news/2015-16/jul/080715-barclays-under-21-premier-league-fixtures-released.html |title=Fixtures Announced Champions Manchester United Play Leicester City {{!}} Barclays Under-21 Premier League |website=www.premierleague.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150711050441/http://www.premierleague.com/en-gb/news/news/2015-16/jul/080715-barclays-under-21-premier-league-fixtures-released.html |archive-date=2015-07-11}}
