American Flag Football - Zürich Intruders - 2012 Season

First off, a great big "thank you" to all our players who made our 2011 season so much fun and we welcomed several newbies during the year who are now true friends and part of the Intruders community.

For the 2012 flag season (May thru September) we have entered the Zürich Intruders into the official Swiss League.

That means that we have 6 firm dates, 2 Saturdays in May, June & September where we'll play three games in a tournament style. This is a call to all who enjoy American Football without the pads and impact; flag football is widely played across the world and we use the IFAF 5 on 5 rulebook.

We have women as well as guys in our team and if you're physically fit and 17 or older, please get in touch via PM for more details or check out our Facebook Group page, suitably titled "Zürich Intruders".

Sure bud. Details here.

The League is having a few internal dilemmas at the moment, so we don't have the 2012 flag schedule yet. I guess you're too far away to play in our team, but there are some closer to you.

Otherwise, drop me a PM for our contact details.

Re: American Flag Football - Zürich Intruders - 2012 Season

The Swiss Flag Football League is now all set to play tournament games starting May 2012. The Intruders are the new kids on the block and looking forward to the new season.

We have some sports hall training sessions in Winterthur starting February 26 and a friendly pre-season tournament in Aegeri April 07.

The Zürich Intruders team is open to all who enjoy playing American Football without the injury risks of full contact. We have all ages from 18 through to late 40s.

We're playing indoors this Sunday at 1200 in Winterthur. I'm really looking forward seeing how we stack up against Swiss teams.

Re: American Flag Football - Zürich Intruders - 2012 Season

Thanks to all who attended our first indoor practise session Sunday including the newbies. It's good to see that the Intruders word is spreading and we are growing our numbers.

Don't be shy, if you like great company and making new friends and share our passion for American or Canadian Football, come along and have some fun.

Sure - come on out! At the least, you could come to our pickup games. We'll be starting them up again soon, I think. Send a PM to Assassin and he can add you to the email list.

Midweek bump - reminders to current team members and enthusiasts about this Sunday's indoor practice session in Winterthur. Any newbies who want to check it out - c'mon out!

We'll also be resuming our normal outdoor pickup games sometime in the next couple of months.

Thanks Motorschweitz buddy. We have ten for Sunday and after a warm up and some drills, we're onto the playbook and then a fun scrimmage. If spring is really here to stay we'll start our pick up games later on this month back in Wiedikon.

Looking forward to hauling in some long TD catches and burning the strong safety deep!

Not if I'm that safety. Lol. I steal passes from my own teammates, used to drive my coach nuts. I can't help it, when that ball is in the air, I feel like a shark going in for the kill. I can't wait.

Can't make it this week or next, but maybe in three weeks. I am still on the mailing list from last year but never made it out due to having a newborn son. My leash is little bit longer this year, lol. But still just as busy.
