*:Two reasons, really: I couldn't find a policy that indicates a ''team'' needs to be professional to be notable (only athletes), and it looked like lots of effort had been put in. That doesn't mean it meets policy or is notable, but I've found that putting that much effort is either [[WP:AGF|sincere]] or persistent. In either case, when the PROD was removed, it seemed AfD was the prudent course. <small><span style="padding:2px;border:1px solid #000000">[[User:Frank|<span style="color:cyan;background:blue">&nbsp;Frank&nbsp;</span>]]&nbsp;{{!}}&nbsp;[[user_talk:Frank|<span style="color:blue;background:cyan">&nbsp;talk&nbsp;</span>]]</span></small> 04:46, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

*::In my view, [[WP:CSD#A7|A7]] would apply as a sporting team is an organisation ("organisation" does not mean legal entity and explicitly includes similarly informal groups such as bands) and playing in a social indoor league is not a credible claim to notability. But I don't question your decision to take this here; in my view it's the proper thing to do if there is any doubt in the nominator's mind. --[[User:Mkativerata|Mkativerata]] ([[User talk:Mkativerata|talk]]) 04:51, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

2 things, first we don't play indoor football, second, it is definately sincere and not just a wind up, far too much effort and time for that. --[[User:isitafox|isitafox]]
