O/T Rugby in Germany Latest : Sun May 10, 2009 1:05 pm
I will post all German matters on RLFANS using just this name and use another posting things on Fax. Things are really looking good after what we feel was a poor 2008 in many ways. We have recruited a couple more people and have managed to appoint a part time development officer in March in Uwe Jansen. We continue to have a good relationship with the halifax Club and they send us things like DVDs of games and these games get passed around Germany-So it helps us to show Rugby League especially in training and in peoples free time and Fax get some exposure out of it. Hopefully a few people will end up being Fax fans!! Any way here is a brief rundown on whats been happening and what is planned
WEBSITE Click on the Website at www.rugby-league.de for the latest news about Rugby League in Germany. By clicking on the website you also help fund Rugby League in Germany especially when you click further on the amazon and google adverts as we get money for each person that does it! The Website is now available in English as well as German ALPENSTOFF NATIONAL TRAINING CAMP Dan Stocks and his coaching staff will be holding a National Training Camp in Hochspeyer, Kaiserslautern on the 23 & 24 May. The camp is open to all players who qualify for Germany. CALENDER (Main Events) 23/24 May--National Camp (Hochspeyer) 30 May--Team Alpenstoff Germany in the Oslo 9s (Oslo) 27/28 June--State of Origin (Nürnberg)4 States play against each other! 4 July--Czech Republic v Germany (Olomouc) 18 July--Germany v Italy (Hürth) 8 August--Belguim XIII v Germany "A" (Brussels) Also there is now U16s & U18s games and Open Age games happening in Germany. Most of these will be around the Heidelberg, Kaiserslautern, Frankfurt and Karlsruhe area. We have had contact with a couple of amateur clubs in the Halifax area including Greetland Allrounders and King Cross Park and we are hoping that maybe in 2010 or 2011 a Halifax based youth team would do a tour to play in Heidelberg an U16s team or U18s. This is not as easy as getting a team across due to various rules on Child safety and how important it is that people are aware that they are representing Rugby League and England/GB and any trouble (People getting drunk etc) could set Rugby League in Germany back as certain Rugby Union people are looking for any excuse to stop us or cause problems!
