  • Delete I want to find a reason to keep this article but there is just isn't anything to save. The one sentence of content that isn't stating the obvious is unsourced.-- Mattinbgn/ talk 09:32, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete, notability not asserted (success in junior ranks is not an assertion of notability).Garrie 00:29, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Google News Archives contains 4 Google News Archives returns from the local paper [1] showing that it is 24 years old and has a commendable mix of ethnicities but nothing indicating wider notability. Capitalistroadster 03:08, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
    • Delete - The club's history page on their website states that it was "Formed in 1903 and playing in the Essendon, Broadmeadows Churches Cricket Association the club went on to win 33 premierships" .. and "Originally the club played under the name of Christchurch Cricket Club". I've tried googling combinations of the two club names with "Pascoe Vale" (the name of the Melbourne suburb this is in) and/or Melbourne, and I'm not coming up with any real results. Unless a cricket-person or Melbournite can provide something else, this doesn't seem to meet the Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies). ColtsScore 03:32, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
