PROD by User:Sam Sailor rationale was Local football club that fails WP:NTEAM.

NTEAM is itself linked closely to WP:GNG which requires multiple reliable and independent sources showing significant, direct coverage of the subject. If this is to be treated as an organisation, then it fails WP:NORG, in particular WP:ORGDEPTH. Furthermore looks to fail WP:V as the only source cited is a Facebook page which is not WP:RS and does not contain any significant facts about this club. The article is essentially unsourced and has been since 2016. Nothing in my WP:BEFORE suggests that this article can be verified.

 * Delete. Both under their previous name Young Stars Football Academy RSA and under the current, the very few mentions of the club found unfortunately do not amount to anything remotely satisfying GNG. Delete under WP:DEL-REASON #8. Sam Sailor 19:15, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

 * This article was created for a soccer team locally in my area with the same coach that coached the previous team Young Stars Football Academy. The name changed, because their sponsorship changed. I am managing the page on behalf of the coach for the soccer team Neduko (talk) 21:10, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Do we need to add all the matches with Images to prove they have played already as well to prove this soccer team exists? Neduko (talk) 21:16, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * If you could provide independent news sources discussing this club in detail then that would make it notable. I don't doubt that the team exists but it clearly isn't notable. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 22:09, 26 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete - merely existing does not get a team a WP article, the team needs to be notable and this one isn't -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:51, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete as they don't meet WP:GNG and clear attempt to use Wikipedia as a promotional tool as per I am managing the page on behalf of the coach for the soccer team. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:59, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
