  • Keep. Their club website says they provided a player to the British Lions in the 1920s called William Wallace, so it passes Notability Clubs. Szzuk (talk) 18:19, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - As above, qualifies under the Rugby part of the clubs notability rules. Deathlibrarian (talk) 06:34, 6 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as it appears to meet the notability standards by providing a player to the British Lions. L293D () 02:36, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I would take the claim that they supplied a lions player with a pinch of salt as there was only one William Wallace that played on the 1924 British Lions tour to South Africa and this club Percy Park RFC claims that he was their player at the time. William Wallace is a common name or he may have played for both teams. And please don't forget that project guidelines do not trump NORG or GNG and neither seem to be met. --Dom from Paris (talk) 15:44, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Percy Park is 7 miles from Seghill, likely he played for both teams. Szzuk (talk) 16:59, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Szzuk, are there any reliable, independent sources for the claim. If so I'd happily withdraw the nomination. Cabayi (talk) 19:13, 8 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
