Potentially fails WP:V and WP:GNG. We know that Jarvis Island has no inhabitants so I can't see how they could put together a football team! Furthermore, I can find no evidence of their alleged 8-0 thrashing of Kiribati in New York in 2006. Article also states that they qualified for the 2023 Pacific Games but I can see no evidence of this. Their top scorer "George TylerKed" yields no hits in searches. The article seems to be pure fantasy/hoax. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 19:55, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
