[edit] Article naming convention
Before going all out and creating articles for all GA clubs, I wanted to get some form of consensus on article names. The two main options are the club's legal name or the Div One team name.
For example, in NSW Illawarra Gridiron Inc is the legal name of the club though it would be more well known by their Div One team Wollongong Mustangs.
I'm more in favour of the team name, with university teams shortened to "uni" and common acronyms preferred over the full wording (examples Sydney Uni Lions and UTS Gridiron, respectively). The complete name can be in the opening overview paragraph of the article. This is based on rugby league articles after searching around wiki for a while to get a feel for what the standard is.

[edit] Colts teams
Can Colts and Div One share the same article or is there enough info to warrant separate atricles? The Template:Infobox aus sport club and Template:Infobox sports league were not designed with separate divisions in mind, though it would be easy enough to create new infobox templates.
