Emus in action for Germany

fabs — Sun, 08 Aug 2010 12:22:37 +0000

This week 3 players from the Stuttgart Emus were in action for the German National Team! Besides Johannes Mast who was part of representing Germany at the European Championship in Sweden, also Elias Remesal-Velasco and Fabian Kroll played for the Eagles, thrashing the Czech Republic 184:37 on Saturday. Elias contributed two goals as a full forward while Fabian booted one from his center half forward position.

Emus are back from Munich!

Emus,

Hopefully everyone who played on Saturday has recovered. The day started off great! 14 players and 4 fans met at the train station at 7:30, most of whom were wearing Emus team wear. The train ride to Munich was relatively mellow as most Emus don’t seem to be morning people. We hand passed the ball back and forth to pass the time and miraculously didn’t hit any passengers, all that training really paid off! When we finally arrived in Munich, it was 15 degrees and pouring down rain, we met up with four other Emus at the local monastery and had our team meeting in the only place we could find shelter. We walked up to the field in uniform and started the game.

The game was rough and scrappy, and it was difficult to mark the ball in such weather. We went hard at the ball and were present at every contest, never once giving up. But Munich is undefeated at home this year and they had a pool of 60 players to choose from so this was defiantly an uphill battle. Julian, the Munich captain, later told me that his was the strongest team they’d assembled all year. In the end, we lost the game but no one seemed upset. We all played our best and had a lot of fun against the team that will probably win it all this year. Well done Emus!

The train ride home was a blast! We bought a couple of cases of beer and had a great time getting to know each other a little bit better. The Emus even added a new word to their lexicon, something to do with mushrooms…

See ya at training,

Guy

All-or-Nothing-Clash against Crocs

fabs — Wed, 23 Jun 2010 11:00:12 +0000

The Emus are looking forward to the highly anticipated home game against their archrivals from Berlin on Saturday, 26th (starting 14:00), in Esslingen.

“It’s always great fun to play the Berlin side, they are good blokes. But it’s highly competitive, maybe the most competitive game of the season. I can’t wait!” says Fabian Kroll of the Emus.

A win could drive the Emus into the Top-3 section of the ladder at the end of the season, which would be an outstanding success for the 2nd-season young guns from Stuttgart.

With almost no injuries on the sideline and a fully packed effort-soaked 26-man-squad the players are giving the coaching staff a hard time to choose the starting 16, according to Fabian: “The past weeks have been great for us with no games and really intense and effective training sessions. We are ready to blow them off the field! It’s our homeground, it’s hard to beat us here.”

The Emus are hoping for a good number of spectators on the sidelines. The weather is going to be great and there’s beer being sold during the game. The restaurant on the premises also offers great food for the aftermath of the game. We’ll see you there!

Friendly against French cancelled

Unfortunately the game against Strasbourg is cancelled!

However we will play an internal scratch match at our home game ground in Esslingen at 16:00. We should have enough numbers for a proper 9-a-side. Come an watch the footy or try yourself if you are new. This is your chance to show you belong to the starting 18 for the upcoming season.

Training on Friday, March 12th

Emu – ein Tier im Portrait

admin — Sat, 01 Aug 2009 09:25:39 +0000

Emus sind Laufvögel, die im australischen Outback anzutreffen sind. Was macht sie so besonders – und wie sehen die eigentlich aus?

Emus sind Laufvögel, die im australischen Outback anzutreffen sind. Zudem ist es eines der Tiere, die auf der australischen Flagge zu finden ist – neben dem Känguru. Warum sind gerade diese beiden Tiere so interessant? Der Grund: Emus (und auch Kängurus) können nicht rückwärts laufen. Deshalb auch unser Motto: “Emus never take a backward step”.
