In the United Kingdom, University teams are largely unknown within their own campus. There are few exceptions - and this isn't one of them. There's no references, a Google search reveals nothing away from their own or other teams' websites and the article as also been tagged as possibly being non-notable.

• Delete per nom. Non-notable and no references. Lack of independent or reliable sources means that it is unlikely that it will ever be possible to reference the article.Pit-yacker (talk) 20:23, 17 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Sadly, British "American" football teams are not normally notable. Try another wiki.--Paul McDonald (talk) 03:25, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per the above. As noted, there are a very few notable British university sports teams, but this does not seem to be one of them - unsurprisingly, since American football is very much a minority sport in the UK. Pfainuk talk 06:20, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as non notable, as are 99.9% of UK university sports teams. Nuttah (talk) 20:19, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
