Inline references support the text of an article and give source information. There is a "Cite" toolbar at the top of the edit window which allows you to automatically generate the required wiki code.
You click one of the templates, e.g. "book", and fill in the details.
More information can be found in Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or the citations tutorial (the below video will play best in Firefox or Chrome):

- The reason your articles were deleted is because you did not demonstrate the notability of the subject. That doesn't mean that the club isn't notable, it just means you didn't show that it was. The best way to show that a subject is notable is by showing third-party references to it for example news coverage or books about local history that mention the history of the club. Remember that everything in the article needs to be backed up by a reference. You can use the club's website as a reference, but wherever possible you should try to use third-party references.
