The Reading Kangaroos are getting ready to run ‘around the grounds’ to raise money for the Motor Neurone Disease Association.

On the weekend of October 3rd, the Kangaroos will run & walk a total of 290km; the distance from Reading’s home venue to all of the other AFL London home grounds.

Only a couple of weeks to go until we go ‘around the grounds’ to raise money for MND. A big thank you to everyone who has donated so far! All the details in the post below, and on our Just Giving page.

Over the next couple of weeks we are going to introduce our playing list as we lead up to the finals. Thus far the boys are undefeated with 2 home and away games to go. Courageously and skillfully led by player/ coach Atiba Jackson. A little challenge for you all is wether you can match the player with the Nickname… Perhaps you even can tell the story of how they got it 😉? David McCurdie..

The Kiel Koalas have officially played their first game of Australian Football!

Last weekend the Koalas went up against the Hamburg Dockers’ ‘rookie team’ in a hard fought match, narrowly losing by 5-points.

Well done to the Kiel Koalas for establishing the team so quickly as well as all involved in getting their first game organised!

Gestern war es soweit, die Koalas haben ihr erstes Spiel bestritten – und es war des Anlasses absolut würdig! Die Partie gegen das Rookie-Team der Hamburg Dockers war zu jeder Zeit hart umkämpft und spannend. Die Koalas konnten mit einer knappen Führung in die Halbzeitpause gehen, das Spiel endete mit 51 zu 46 für die Dockers. Gratulation beide Teams, großartiger Einsatz von allen und beachtliche Leistungen dafür, dass es für die meisten Spieler auf dem Feld das erste Footy-Spiel überhaupt war. Weiter ging es mit zwei Partien, die jeweils Hamburg Dockers gegen Rheinland Lions hießen. Bei den Frauen konnten die Rheinländerinnen das Spiel für sich entscheiden, bei den Männern siegten die Hamburger. Beide Spiele haben beim Zuschauen großen Spaß gemacht, wir konnten viel lernen. Wir hoffen, es hat allen Beteiligten ebenso viel Freude bereitet wie uns. Wir sagen danke: Danke an alle Teams, die gestern mit uns auf dem Nordmarksportfeld Australian Football gespielt haben und den Tag zu einem großartigen Event gemacht haben. Danke an alle, die zum Zuschauen vorbeigekommen sind und die Teams so großartig unterstützt haben! Danke an alle freiwilligen Helfer, die an Organisation und Logistik mitgewirkt haben. Danke an die Pressevertreter, die von den Spielen berichten und uns damit helfen, unseren Sport weiter bekannt zu machen. Und schließlich auch danke an die Stadt Kiel und den Platzwart des Nordmarksportfelds für die Möglichkeit, unsere Spiele dort auszutragen. Wir freuen uns auf viele weitere Footy-Events in Kiel in den nächsten Jahren!
