I have been unable to locate many reliable independent sources. Fails WP:NSPORT, WP:BIO, and WP:GNG. Adam9007 (talk) 15:10, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Per nom. Doesn't seem to meet WP:NSPORT or WP:GNG. There is some coverage but most is trivial ROTM sports coverage and match reports that are otherwise to be expected. Nothing to indicate broader notability. At best a case of WP:TOOSOON. Guliolopez (talk) 18:25, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep. He has played for a national team in the FIH Hockey World League.[1] There is no specific guideline in WP:NSPORT for field hockey, but in most other sports, an international cap makes the subject notable. The article would be bolstered by more coverage in reliable sources. However, I think the best course for the article at this point is to improve sourcing rather than delete. I'm willing to revisit the matter in six months if no sources turn up after searching. —C.Fred (talk) 19:16, 17 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
