For the world championship, Christiane Langkamm has to fly for 3,7 Get tons of our most precious cargo.
Our players!
Strictly speaking 3689,1 kg live weight brings the German women's national team together on the scale. That makes an average weight of 81 kg per player.
Of course there is more for the flight, even if a lot of the equipment is driven with the van. In addition to the players' luggage and equipment, we also have the coaches and supervisors. Here, however, the exact recording of the weights was dispensed with. At whose request this was done, is still being determined.
We hope, Not to exceed the weight on the way back. The medals hoped for shouldn't be the problem, but Sweden is known for Godis, Cinnamon buns, Semlor, Princess cake and chocolate balls. Not to forget the oat biscuits from the famous furniture store…

And that is given with the new jerseys from Future Sport. And if it also looks so good, all the better. Who feels good, also plays better.

Good news for them 33 year old from Dresden.
Sometimes one phone call can ruin all plans. Christiane Müller is now experiencing this too. When her phone rang recently, she didn't know anything about it yet. At the other end of the line was the AFVD competitive sports director for women Christiane Langkamm from Berlin with good news.
Christiane Müller was named for the American Football Women's World Cup 2010 nominated in Stockholm. The motto for the summer is now 2010: Stockholm instead of a lake, World championship instead of free time. However, Christiane Müller was not completely unexpected. As a wide receiver, she has been on the list of replacements for the 45 squad since the national team's camp in April. She now benefits from Sharon Klitsch's rejection, who cannot be there at the World Cup.
“Of course I was really happy, when Christiane called me. Especially since, as a mom, who had taken a baby break in the past season, I didn't expect any great chances (and I'm no longer very young either ;)) But now I'm allowed to go to Sweden! “The pharmacist from Dresden is happy. She has already booked the vacation spot for her son with her grandparents and the duty rosters at work are still being adjusted.
“Fortunately, the subsequent nomination did not come too soon. I do not know, like me in just 2-3 Days. But this way I can slowly tune into Sweden and be a little proud. World Championship ... if only in the 2. Start-up, but i'm there!“
In the national team, Christiane Müller will meet four team-mates from the Dresden Diamonds, who also made it into the women's national team. From 25. June the team will meet in Strausberg near Berlin, to prepare for the World Cup.

Hollywood movies have liked to work with clichés. And if a young person is to be presented as something violent and not so clever, then often the role is used as a football player. And among the football players the position of the Defense Line player in this respect is the most negative occupied. Prejudices and stereotypes, where everyone likes to use. But as is often the reality is then another.
In the German Nationalmansnchaft plays on the Defense Line Sandra Lemmer from Munich. The 32-year-old is the counterexample. She has a PhD in German philology. For those who alone have to look for the name: German studies.
A big concern for Sandra is, dispel precisely this Voruteilen. She wants to show, that Football is a Kobination from smooth power and bowl, from Hau-plan and strategy, of power and technology, of strength and coordination. And preparing for a game not only inflaming music, but may be made in her case also meditative music a la Enya. And one or another quick prayer, that yes can also be helpful.

We already know that the players in the women's national team are more than just average. That's why they were nominated.
But they are also significantly larger than average in body length. After all, they're average 172 cm long. That’s just barely 18% of women bigger than our team. The main part of German women (56,1%) is just between 160 und 169 cm tall.
The considerable size does not quite approach the average German man. Here are 50% between 175 und 184 cm tall.

In a loose collection, I will present some facts about the team. Some of them might be known, certainly not others.
What is the first thing you notice in a team photo, is the height. Some national players are significantly taller than their colleagues. And that by more than just a head size.
The biggest player in the German team is Birgit Schwenk from Mainz. With 196 It towers above all by centimeters. According to the research, it is one of the TOP 5 of all football players worldwide.
Birgit is a founding member of the Mainz Golden Eagles Ladies and has been playing since 2006 Football. As a defense tackle, she is in the front row of the German defense. With a weight of 135 kg she is also the heaviest player on the team and should form the bulwark against the running attack of our opponents. She is supported by Yvonne Mechsner, which is in second place in the internal ranking. Sweden and Canada have to pass those two first…
