History
When NYCFC entered MLS in 2015, the league had no reserve side. For their first few seasons NYCFC affiliated with Wilmington Hammerheads FC[1] and then with San Antonio FC[2] but these partnerships were little used and the club continued with no minor league affiliate for several seasons afterwards.
MLS Next Pro
On December 6, 2021 Major League Soccer announced the formation of a new league, MLS Next Pro, which would be a combination of a development league and a competitive tournament sitting on the third tier of the United States soccer league system.[3] Amongst the teams listed as having signed up to participate in the first season was NYCFC.[3] The name of the team – New York City FC II (abbreviated as "NYCFC II") – was revealed when the club announced the signing of three players to stock the nascent team's roster.[4] On February 24, 2022, it was announced that NYCFC II would play its home matches at Belson Stadium on the campus of St. John's University.
