Youth sports league which fails

WP:BRANCH, almost all youth leagues are non-notable, and "[a]s a general rule, the individual chapters of national and international organizations are usually not considered notable enough to warrant a separate article - unless they are substantially discussed by reliable independent sources that extend beyond the chapter's local area."

Keep This isn't a "youth sports league" or a "chapter" of a parent organization. This is an organized, multi-tiered development system that feeds in directly to the professional teams of the New York Red Bulls. The sources provided here, and the ample sources that are available elsewhere, clearly establish notability. Alansohn (talk) 18:43, 16 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Nomination is absolutely irrelevant. This is not a league, youth or otherwise. And it's not a local affiliate of a national organization. It's a development academy. So neither of the reasons stated in nom make sense, and we have no real choice but to keep it. Smartyllama (talk) 20:36, 26 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
