- Comment WP:ATHLETE provides for the highest level of amateur sport, there is no professional welsh league. Make of this what you will. 78.86.18.55 (talk) 10:08, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
- Mark Cadwallader is English, though, so has the opportunity to play in a fully pro league in his own country. If an otherwise unremarkable amateur player from England/Spain/Germany/Italy for some reason wound up playing in the top amateur league in a country like, I dunno, Fiji, would he gain notability by playing in the top amateur league in said completely random country....? Food for thought....... ChrisTheDude (talk) 10:20, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
- Note also that the clause you cite actually says "Competitors and coaches who have competed at the highest level in amateur sports (who meet the general criteria of secondary sources published about them)." - no secondary sources have yet come to light for this player ChrisTheDude (talk) 10:24, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
