The result was delete. This consensus is on the weaker side of things (hence totally agree with the relist), so a draftify for potential improvement is definitely open as an option, however even with a further 7 days and no further contributions, happy to call this a delete.

Not enough independent coverage to satisfy WP:GNG. Additionally, a regional qualification tournament isn't a major international competition at the highest level, thus failing WP:NSPORT. JTtheOG (talk) 22:35, 11 July 2021 (UTC)


 * comment hitting two homers in a major european tournament, seem major to me. lots of coverage in Italian press. --Abetpluto (talk) 17:55, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Again, I wouldn't classify a regional qualification tournament as a major competition at the highest level, but either way, the subject has not been shown to receive sufficient coverage to meet WP:GNG. JTtheOG (talk) 20:29, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
 * the winning teams of the qualifiers seem notable, when the field is six teams, and the rosters are smaller, unlike volleyball, or field hockey. --Abetpluto (talk) 17:09, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
 * If she were notable she would pass WP:GNG regardless of which tournament she played in. Check out the softball article I just created yesterday: Sashel Palacios. Multiple independent sources which cover her directly and in detail instead of just a passing mention. JTtheOG (talk) 20:01, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 *  Keep . Am I missing something? She's an Olympic athlete, or at least she will be in a little more than a week, probably before this discussion is closed. By consensus, we keep all Olympians. pburka (talk) 21:16, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Actually, yes. It's true that she was a member of the national team, and was even on a preliminary shortlist of 22 women, but she was ultimately left off the final Olympic roster after they cut it down to 15 players. JTtheOG (talk) 21:25, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
 * That seems like the important information I was missing! pburka (talk) 21:39, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
 * My fault for not making that clear. JTtheOG (talk) 21:44, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete, this seems to not cut it, a sub-Olympian so to speak. Geschichte (talk) 21:22, 18 July 2021 (UTC)
