I can barely find evidence of the teams existence and certainly not enough to pass NORG. The American Cup that they won is stated in the article to be different from the notable American Cup. It just doesn't seem the team was particularly notable. Tartar Torte 03:05, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

- Tentative Delete - Two sources provided. One is an archive of what appears to be a fan-run website without an editorial process. The other is an article from the New York Times, which, if it contained the information in question, would be a clear indication of notability. The trouble I have is that I clicked the PDF linked in the article, and nothing I see there mentions soccer in any way... the PDF talks about golf, yachting, polo, track and field, baseball, and a racist crime report, but no soccer (or association football) that I can see. Now, this PDF is only a clipping from the newspaper, and its entirely possible that the newpaper did talk about this soccer team on that day, and it's just not in the PDF... but there's nothing here as far as I can see. This !vote will change to keep if a valid source is found. Fieari ( talk) 04:12, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

- Delete, per nominator. Even with the NYT article, doesn't seem like enough to pass WP:GNG. Spf121188 ( talk) 17:31, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

Delete Absolutely not notability here. There are no sources and the ones (only two in total) in the reference list cannot be used to retain this article on WP. Glucken123 ( talk) 19:43, 23 January 2022 (UTC)Blocked sock. Tartar Torte 21:10, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
