Despite the use of "professional" and "professionally organized" in the article, the website http://www.sassco.co.uk/ clearly states that it is a collection of purely amateur teams. The fact that they have a nicely done website doesn't raise Sassco to the level of notability usually required for articles on athletic teams, which are reserved for fully professional or top level teams in their sport.

 * Whilst I would delete amateur clubs without a blink, I would give entire amateur leagues a better chance if there is evidence of notability per WP:GNG. However, a handful of mentions in minor local papers and websites isn't enough, and I the vast majority of the information is neither properly verifiable nor encyclopaedic. Delete.
