Response to Proposed Deletion of Chris Antonopoulos Article

I respectfully contest the speedy deletion of the Chris Antonopoulos article. The subject meets Wikipedia's notability criteria for athletes, as outlined in the general notability guideline and specific criteria for sports figures. The article includes credible claims of importance and is supported by independent, reliable sources documenting Antonopoulos’s achievements, including:

His collegiate career as a goalkeeper for Florida International University (FIU). His professional playing career with the Fort Lauderdale Strikers and Hollywood Kickers. His international representation for the U.S. Men’s National Beach Soccer Team (2002–2006). His role as a coach and organizer for Florida Beach Soccer FC, which won national championships and competed internationally in events such as the NASSC U.S. Open Championship and the BagoSports Invitational. The article is not promotional and provides a neutral, well-sourced overview of Antonopoulos’s career. These accomplishments demonstrate sufficient importance and significance under Wikipedia’s guidelines, and the article requires improvements through discussion rather than immediate deletion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amplifyplantz33 (talk • contribs) 02:33, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
