D.C. United Academy

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Youth sports league which fails WP:GNG and 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 Neither a youth league nor a local affiliate of a national organization. Nomination is completely wrong and neither reason offered is accurate. Smartyllama (talk) 20:38, 26 August 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep I see a lot of reliable secondary sources covering this organization, within a general Google search, a Google News search, and even a Books search. I feel that means it easily passes WP:GNG ArchieOof (talk) 14:04, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
