PROD contested by Bchedrty (talk · contribs) who stated "this team has been around for a while in toronto and are relatively well known. good opportunity to build up not just this team's article, but articles regarding soccer in toronto and Ontario" - however, this team is not notable. It does not play in a notable league, has no notable achievements, and has not received " significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

Delete - I original tagged it for speedy deletion under {{db-club}} (which was converted to a PROD), I think the same still applies. Also seem my comment on the talk page. --kelapstick^(bainuu) 10:59, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Not notable - I can find no outside references to them or their league. A fun fact unrelated to the deletion, this team last year lost 7-2 to "Care Bears". Cream147 _{Shout at me} 15:31, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - looks to be the Canadian equivalent of a Sunday league team or even a Leisure Leagues team, not notable at all outside its own squad list (which, as it stands in the article, looks completely made-up). I sincerely doubt the team is "relatively well known" in Ontario.... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 20:52, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I did the PROD as I did not think them notable enough. I don't see how they are. -- Alexf^(talk) 22:20, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - has not played at a notable level to pass WP:FOOTYN, or received enough coverage to pass WP:GNG. Mentoz86 (talk) 07:41, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
