Non-notable cricket club which fails WP:CRIN and WP:CLUB. Also lacking reliable secondary sources. AssociateAffiliate (talk) 10:24, 17 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete There would be a case that the club is notable for producing a number of famous players if this was established by reliable, independent sources. As it's not, the nominator's rationale is sound. ŞůṜīΣĻ¹98¹Speak 19:12, 17 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete fails to meet WP:GNG and WP:CLUB, I take Suriel1981's point about the notable players, however even if that was sourced, notability is not inherited so still should be deleted (unless those same sources addressed the club in significant detail).

- Keep. One of leading cricket clubs in Kenya, and part of the newly created East Africa Twenty20 Premier League [1]. Notable also for being a founder club of Kenya Cricket Association, and is the oldest cricket club in the country [2]
- Comment Having notable players playing for the club doesn't automatically make the club notable. The East Africa Twenty20 Premier League also doesn't hold official Twenty20 status, so that league is deemed non-notable. Lastly, age doesn't imply notability.
