West Ham United Development Squad are competing in the Barclays Under-21 Premier League during the 2012/13 season.
The Hammers topped Group 1 before Christmas, ahead of Arsenal, Blackburn Rovers, Bolton Wanderers, Everton, Norwich, Reading and West Bromwich Albion, to qualify for the Elite Group Stage.
Competition notes -
Wherever West Ham finish in Group 1, they will go forward to a second group stage after Christmas, from where they could qualify for the end-of-season play-offs and final. The top two sides and two best third-place teams from three First Group Stage groups will go forward to the Elite Group Stage.
The other third-place team, fourth and fifth-place teams and best sixth-place teams will go forward to Tier One Stage. The two other sixth-place teams, seventh and eighth-place teams will go forward to Tier Two Stage.
The Tier One and Tier Two winners will play-off to meet the winners of the Elite Group in one semi-final, while the second and third-place Elite Group finishers will contest the other. The winners of the two semi-finals will contest the final.
