The J.League’s board of directors met on Tuesday to discuss the status of J3 Club License applications for the 2016 season from present J3 clubs.

Licenses were approved for Grulla Morioka, Blaublitz Akita, Fukushima United, YSCC Yokohama, SC Sagamihara, Fujieda MYFC and Gainare Tottori.

Due to FC Ryukyu’s current financial situation however, deliberation over the status of the club’s license has been extended to the board of directors’ meeting in November.
