Too short and is not really important, we do not know if they have a division title let alone a championship. Sportsfangnome (talk) 18:06, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, I was able to find a single mention in the Evansville Courier and Press, but besides that, nothing. So the team fails GNG. BeanieFan11 (talk) 18:18, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nice job! Sportsfangnome (talk) 13:00, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete for lack of significant media coverage. I see one unreliable source[1] that says it's a semi-pro team, which would disqualify it if true. Also, it plays in an obscure league that has no article. Clarityfiend (talk) 22:17, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Insufficient notability; fails WP:GNG. Balon Greyjoy (talk) 12:03, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I found the official website: http://www.fortwayneflyers.org/index.htm. Don't know if it is still running however because my school blocked the website on this computer. I also found that they might actually be a baseball team:https://waynedalenews.com/2008/07/fort-wayne-flyers-win-regional/ Sportsfangnome (talk) 13:14, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Football:http://allencountyparks.org/uploads/ac_draft_2007-12-21.pdf page 77.

Which one is it in? Sportsfangnome (talk) 13:20, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
There is probably both a baseball and football team. BeanieFan11 (talk) 15:09, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, I don't believe this meets notability or coverage standards.
Delete not enough coverage to pass WP:GNG. That it exists is not a reason to keep it. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:29, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per all above. Very little WP:SIGCOV. Frank Anchor 16:02, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NTEAM. Cbl62 (talk) 04:18, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Fails WP:GNG due to a lack of reliable sources. Note: WP:NTEAM seems to have zero value at this time, it probably was gutted with most of the other sports SNGs a while back...Jacona (talk) 11:30, 21 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
