Hi

i used to play in a football club and a friend used to play also.
it depend what you are looking for hobby or competition .there is a lot of football clun everywhere.
community.fussball.de/de/amateur/index.html
you can play on normal liga or there is a Hobby liga
if you are under 30 you can play at campus sport at the uni
but german sport isn't social or very just for fun in general.
if you are looking for english speaker come to play rugby

Hi guys, thanks for the replies! Sorry it's taken time to reply, I've been away recently.

Jorgev, that sounds ideal, just what I'm looking for! I posted on the link for the previous event you posted above...I hope that's ok. Let me know when you guys will play next and I will definitely come.

You can contact me here or on fb, whichever is easier Thsnks!

Melanie, thanks for that link, it looks very useful! Initially I wanna play for fun, it's been a few months since I've played but I'm happy to play in league teams too once I get some fitness back

Hi. I am often in Cologne and interested in playing casual football even if it is just in the park.
Did you find any others who are interested?

Hey Nick,

Have played a few times with Jorgev who posted above, but that looks like it's finished now, they don't play anymore I believe.

So the search continues! I really can't believe its so hard to get involved. Plus there seems to be a real lack of facilities here in NRW, definitely in Cologne. I'm really up for 5-a-side, but can't find anywhere to play. My lack of fluent German doesn't help.

If anyone knows of a 5-a-side facility, or 7's in Cologne please let me know as I'm sure we could manage 10 players for a regular kick-about.

Hey,

What's the story with this? Is there a 5aside up and running? I know of facilities in the city centre, on a roof top no-less.

I will be in cologne on a permanent basis from the 24th onwards and would love to get involved.

Thanks
Darach

If you are interested, have a look at the "Bunte Liga Köln" (you can find it via Google)
