If these players had been selected from the whole Tibetan population to play for Tibet then I would accept that that would confer notability, but actually they are selected from the much smaller pool of Tibetan expatriates who are willing to act in defiance of the Chinese regime, i.e. who do not wish to return to Tibet and are not frightened of any possible consequences for their families. This means that they are in no way a team truly representative of their nation, so playing for this team does not get through . This may be unfair, but having a Wikipedia article isn't some sort of honour in recognition of courage or good intentions. Also no sources have been presented to indicate that any of the players may pass any other notability criteria
