Fails notability. References either just list him as a participant or are bare statistics sites. From WP:SPORTCRIT: Although statistics sites may be reliable sources, they are not sufficient by themselves to establish notability. Search just finds more stat sites. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 23:49, 2 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep - 843,000 google hits for '大和 優槻', I don't speak the language but not all of them are stat sites as nominator falsely claims. Once again BEFORE has not been complied with. GiantSnowman 10:05, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep - There is even a Deutsch article for the same topic (person [Yuzuki Yamato]). And as above stated by Snowman, a lot of google hits links to the person. His basic info, for example, can be found: At jleague.jp page, which is the official J.League page, already referenced in the article; At ventforet.jp, the official Ventforet Kofu page, his current club, in which he has a profile, and a joining announcement; At reysol.co.jp, in which he has a profile, and a farewell announcement; At jsports.co.jp in which states he even was a captain for the Reysol U18 team at one of the most notable youth tournaments in Japan; And even a profile at Gekisaka, which also links with other articles mentioning him clarifiedly. I do think he is notable enough, and there is a lot of pages with the same "article style", as this is article is still a stub, so deleting this article of a J2 player and former J1 youth team captain, and leaving many other J3, JFL players with no appearance at J1-J2, don't make that much sense at all. I do think he has the required notability. Skydream1721 (talk) 15:23, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Neither of the above two !votes mentions any significant coverage of the individual that would show notability. I favor deletion unless there is significant coverage of the person. (t &#183; c)  buidhe  21:41, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Then it would be necessary to delete a lot of other stubs, as there is Wikipedia articles of players less notable than Yamato still public. Also, i still don't (sincerely) understand why can't coverage by jleague.jp, reysol.co.jp, gekisaka, ventforet.jp, jsports.co.jp, ogol, transfermarkt, sofascore, fbref, zerozero, besoccer, flashscore, soccerway, jleague.co, gekisaka, yahoo, soccersports, soccerking, kokosoccer and footballlab be considered significant enough.

 * This is probably a keep; he is the main subject of an article on his signing with Ventforet Kofu here, there is a Yamanashi Nichinichi Shimbun article about his role on the team here, earlier specific coverage here, etc. Dekimasu よ! 02:53, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep as there are plenty of sources in Japanese.Fulmard (talk) 19:16, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep Significant coverage exists, even if the sources are not in English. MrsSnoozyTurtle 22:24, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
