Deletion prod was removed. Not a notable sports team. Relies on sources that are COI. Nothing independent. Speedy Climber (talk) 11:02, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all It lacks the coverage required by WP:GNG. Almost all sources are from the league, certainly not independent ones.Jakejr (talk) 03:08, 28 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all I started to do my usual AfD homework, and then realized what the Legends Football League is: the re-branded Lingerie Football League started in the United States. If anyone can find three or four mainstream media sources with significant coverage for each of these teams and the games they have played, I would might be inclined to keep them -- but an American football team, in Australia, populated by women, playing in lingerie and football helmets and pads? That's a carnival sideshow that merits the strictest analysis under WP:ORG and WP:GNG with zero benefit of the doubt. It's not real sport; it's a pole-dancing minor league parody with helmets and lingerie jersey numbers. All kidding aside, delete the team articles, include a list of teams and their basic team data in the parent Legends Football League article, and call it a day.

Delete all, this "league" had zero impact in Australia, both in its original incarnation and its current one. A season was even cancelled due to lack of interest, if you want to see what a nonentity it is. Nothing in the way of independent or reliable coverage exists for any of these teams.
