"Retain its status." Please tell me any club (name included) that has ever been removed or lost its girls ECNL status. This goes out to anyone to answer.
Washington spirit lost its Academy status.

Anonymous wrote:SYC was desperately trying to get into ECNL. They had talks with BRYC but didn't formulate. Before SYC merged with McLean, they applied for MLS Next for their boys program and applied for the Girls Academy League. GAL rejected the girls and leadership expected MLS Next to reject them as well, so SYC approached McLean and decided to go with the 'merged rosters' approach but the unexpected happened: SYC Boys got a full slate of MLS Next teams.
So now, SYC Boys have the potential to play in MLS Next and ECNL with 3rd-team level players in CCL (girls first team). Very few SYC Girls were able to make the VA Union 'merged rosters' team; several have left. BRYC may survive a little more than a year but time will tell. If MLS Next survives, SYC will not join ECNL because they don't care about the girls program; this is why the SYC Commissioner's daughter plays for Arlington.
