I found no notability for this rugby team. Fails WP:N. The team has also never played in a professional league. SL93 (talk) 19:23, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No indication of meeting WP:RU/N. Purely local coverage in the links provided above and google not finding anything more significant. Amateur club in a low division of a state league. noq (talk) 11:49, 20 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete - It isn't only part of a low division of a state league. It's a member of what seems to be the largest gay rugby association in the world. In spite of this, the coverage seems so local, and there's so little of it, that I had to come to the conclusion that the club was not notable enough for its own article.

Merge into Wisconsin Rugby Football Union after removing the encyclopaedic content. Not notable enough for stand alone article as per TCN7JM. – Shudde ^talk 11:57, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
