Keep - teams from the league are eligible for the US national cup, therefore meeting notability guidelines at WP:FOOTYN. Giant Snowman 21:34, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Keep We generally set a low bar for sports articles, and minor leagues meet general notability guidelines because the newspapers in the member cities give them regular coverage and big or small, successful or failed, they get documented later by sports historians. That doesn't necessarily carry over to individual teams within the leagues, but the NSSL would be notable enough, even if it didn't play in the national cup.

Keep. I'm seeing just enough coverage in reliable sources to make me comfortable with keeping this article. --Mkativerata (talk) 19:47, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
