The article Loganville High School Soccer has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. High school sports teams are not generally considered notable. NawlinWiki 00:52, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

There is an article about Loganville High School already on Wikipedia, try putting info about sports there. Unfortuately, we can not have an article about everything, see WP:N for more information. Category:High schools in Georgia (U.S. state) has 144 pages. If each one had articles about each of its sports programs (assuming 4 major sports programs per school) there would be an extra 576 articles. If the categories for everyother state averaged the same (states like Wyoming would have less, California more) there would be about 28,800 articles. Other English speaking areas (Great Britain, Australia) would have even more, bringing the total up to maybe 35,000 - 40,000 articles. This is around 2% of all the 1.6 million+ articles currently on Wikipedia. This is the problem with having articles about minor topics. I hope you understand, this isn't personal.
