Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility by meeting the minimum evidentiary requirements. The AAO found the evidence for his claimed awards contained unresolved inconsistencies and lacked sufficient proof of national or international recognition. Furthermore, the petitioner did not demonstrate that his membership on a national team required outstanding achievements of its members as judged by experts.
