I can't find any evidence that this club exists. Google returns mirrors, soccerway & fifa.com return nothing. A search for Mayabeque on soccerway finds a club called Mayabeque Güines. Gbawden (talk) 07:56, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the team exists and has played in the Campeonato Nacional de Fútbol de Cuba, the top level of football in Cuba, per RSSSF. @Gbawden: you have contradicted yourself, stating that Soccerway returns nothing before going on to say that Soccerway returns 'Mayabeque Guines' - that is the same team! The name is FC Mayabque, it is based in the town of Güines. @Mr. Guye: how is this even nearly a "blatant hoax", did you bother to actually research?

Keep - team clearly does exist and has played at the highest level of competition in its country. Claim that the article is a blatant hoax is blatant nonsense -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 17:36, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Thank you @GiantSnowman:. I wasn't to know that they were one and the same. So... what should the name of this article be? Gbawden (talk) 18:49, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The current name of 'FC Mayabeque' is fine. Giant Snowman 08:17, 14 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
