  • Keep for now - Needs sourcing rather than deletion. A quick search indicates that there is quite a bit of interest in this subject, although nearly all of it is in Swedish. perhaps it is suitable for Swedish wikipedia, but in light of the comments of others, I've decided to change my !vote to Delete.

I think, Sports related articles are given leniency in Wikipedia. They will not pass general notability guidelines, still they will be kept. Even Swedish name search has no news --Greek Legend (talk) 06:38, 11 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thats because niche sport articles are still useful for the people who are in that sport, even if that isn't that many people. InsertCleverPhraseHere 06:44, 11 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I am not saying anything about this topic only, I have seen that few sports articles are unsourced and there is no Google news result. Even though wikipedians talks about WP:GNG, in case of sports related clubs, teams and tournaments this WP:GNG policy is not followed. Greek Legend (talk) 06:48, 11 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Specific guidance on notability for sporting subjects is at Wikipedia:Notability (sports). --David Biddulph (talk) 07:51, 11 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Those are the guidelines for sporting persons, sporting events are not really covered there. InsertCleverPhraseHere 09:21, 11 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
