Playing American football in Treptow park - Berlin

We've moved from college to pro, that is: we are playing American football on Sundays now and no longer on Saturdays.

We meet at 2 pm at Treptower S-Bahn Station by the entrance that leads out to park area (east).

Look out for poorly clad Americans with a goose-egg shaped ball. We play in the park itself of course. We are by no means professionals and play two-hand touch. No one takes it too seriously and all are welcome. If you've never played before, don't be shy. It's an easy game to pick up and a good excuse to run around for a few hours. We play rain, shine, or snow. We expect to be there between two and three hours, if not more. Perhaps afterward, we can drink a beer in the park or meet up to watch some NFL.

If you are interested in playing, leave a note and watch the thread for updates. See you on gridiron.

I'm looking for things to do on the weekends. I just moved to Berlin 2 weeks ago. Some good old fashioned America football sounds fun. I'll see you guys tomorrow.

I'll be there tomorrow. Hope some new people can make it. If you're thinking about coming, you should come.

Sunday, September 7. The weather looks good for football. We shall be playing and hope that you can make it. 2:00 pm. Treptower Park. Meet at the S-Bahn station.

Sounds good. Is this going ahead again this weekend?

Joe

im definitly interested, is this tomorrow?

Sunday, September 14th. We will be playing. Here is a map with directions if you are new. The weather looks good for football. The forecast says no rain, but if it does rain tomorrow, we won't be scared away. It is football after all. Come on out if you are looking for some fun and exercise.

Great. I'll be there.

That was GREAT fun! Will definitely go again.

Thanks for organizing this...and for teaching us Europeans how to play!

Stefano and I will send around an email at work to try to get more people to join.

Have a good week.
Joe (the English\Czech guy)

had a blast meeting all of you! it was lots of fun...we will see how i feel tomorrow though

see you next week! GO EAGLES!

i missed out due to free tickets to the eisbaren game which was totally worth going, they won 11-0. But i totally have this sunday in mind on going. Sorry Mark for letting ya down this week and not going. Send me a private email for the other thing we were talkin about maybe we can this week sometime.

For Sunday, September 21. Despite my inability to understand Celsius, the weather looks decent. We are not concerned about a little sprinkle. It adds to the atmosphere of playing. Unless noted otherwise, we will be playing. See you there.

is the game still on this week?

It sure is. It looks sunny in Treptow.

Unfortunately "the girl" is going to Muenchen in an hour so I won't be there today. I know, my amazing skillz (yes, they deserve a z) will be missed. But everyone else should go and play because it's super fun.
