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…

The football location Kiel is one of the booming “markets” in Germany. Of course, the A.S.C. As with the Baltic Witches (DBL2) also a women's football team. The Witches could with Freya Kleine, Svenja Konowalczyk and Yvonne Striegnitz place two players and one successor in the squad of the new women's national team and are also among the hot favorites in this year's season in DBL2 North. Freya Kleine took the time and answered our questions during the World Cup preparation weeks.

Football-aktuell.de: Hello Freya, can you please introduce yourself to us?

Freya Small: My name is Freya and I am 23 year old. I have been playing football for five years and have been involved with the Kiel Baltic Witches since then. At that time, the team's advertising was hanging in my school and I just went to training and stuck with it. In the beginning I was a tight end and a receiver, then, at the request of my future DB coach, I switched to defense and became safety.

Football-aktuell.de: Is there anything else in your life besides football?

Freya Small: Of course, my family and friends are very important to me. But football has been a big part of my life. I also like to be creative, love movies and like to go dancing.

Football-aktuell.de: Do you practice other sports?? How did you go to football?
came?

Freya Small: Before I got into football, I rode western, as well as almost all of my family. At some point, however, I stopped having fun at the tournaments, although I was quite successful (multiple national champion SH and German runner-up as well as one German champion). When I saw the flyer from my current team at school, I was immediately enthusiastic, although I didn't really have a clue about American football back then.

Football-aktuell.de: You play in the national team in the position of safety. How did you experience the preparatory camps in Cologne and Silberborn? The level was much tougher than in the club?

Freya Small: The situation itself was just quite different. There was constant pressure to perform, because you really wanted to get into the squad. In the teams of the DBL and DBL2 there is often a shortage of female players, so that you are usually in a safe position and often both ways are played. In the camps you had to fight for your place within a few days and did not have the entire off-season time as in the club, convince the coach of himself. There were also a lot of really good girls there, so a real competitive situation. Still, it was cool, to get to know the girls better, that you usually only see as opponents on the field.

Football-aktuell.de: How do you try to prepare for the World Cup until the camp in Straussberg / Berlin??

Freya Small: In addition to training in the club, I try to stick to the training plan of our physio Steffen as much as possible. I also do some sprint exercises.

Football-aktuell.de: How do you want the money for the trip “scrounge together”?

Freya Small: First of all, our association and the AFVSH support us: An application has also been made to the city of Kiel and the LSV. Furthermore, we want to write to a few regional companies and ask for financial resources. We are also on our GFL team's first game day, ran around the Kiel Baltic Hurricanes with the money box and were happy about some donations from the Kiel fans - many thanks to all supporters!

Football-aktuell.de: What are your expectations when you go to Stockholm?? What is sporty
possible?, Will you be able to compete as a starter? What would happen, if D-Land didn't come third?

Freya Small: Whether I can compete as a starter, the coaches will probably decide in the preparatory camp in Berlin, depending on the service provided and the appropriate interaction. I definitely hope so, that we can all do our part at the World Cup. I think, all teams are very serious opponents, because they too have prepared for the World Cup and will only have their best players in the squad. Since I don't know any of their games and our squad has not yet played an international match, I can not judge, how an encounter will turn out. As long as we all do our best, however, I am confident.

Football-aktuell.de: What would happen in Kiel?, when you return as world champions
would come?

Freya Small: That would of course be the top hammer. What then happens in Kiel, I can't predict. Our team, Families and friends would probably be very happy with us. Otherwise I hope, American football is becoming more popular for women and all teams are getting new members or even new teams are being formed, so that the league gets bigger and more games can be played.

Football-aktuell.de: Thank you for your time and your answers.

Germany plays in national colors

Future Sports becomes the outfitter for the women's national team.

As part of the German Japan Bowl, the women's national team provided the jerseys for the World Cup 2010 in Stockholm. Both the ladies and the gentlemen will be 2010 equipped by Future Sport and wear the same jerseys for Germany.

The new jerseys are black and set off with red cuffs on the neck and on the side. The sewn numbers are yellow and also set off with red. The national coat of arms with the eagle sits proudly on the chest as an eye-catcher. Germany is emblazoned in white letters on the back. Together with the red trousers and the well-known black helmet with the national coat of arms, it gives a strong one, respectful appearance.

“We are pleased to be able to work together with Future Sport in the women's national team. Future Sport has proven to be a reliable partner, ”says press spokesman Andreas Gebek happily. “The men's outfit was well received at the German Japan Bowl. This means that our women will also make a good appearance in Sweden. We know, that the look of the jersey cannot decide a game. Important is, that the quality and fit are right. It has to be tight. 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. The national players Michelle Schaffner, Sonja Meurer, Diana Wallin and Silke Huskobla, who were allowed to present the jerseys, were in any case enthusiastic right away. "

At the same time as the jerseys, the women's national team also presented the players' numbers in Stockholm. A sign of that, that the world championship is getting closer and closer. From now on the fans can paint their cheering signs for the Zinkensdamm Stadium. You should already remember one number now: Suse Erdmann is with the number 21 play. So that we can hear as often as possible in June:
„Touchdown Germany Number 21“

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.

Just under two months, then the time has finally come for our girls and we're off to Sweden.

I have waited fourteen years for the opportunity and now it finally has hands and feet ...

After I had already toyed with the thought, to hang up my football boots, I'm glad I didn't do it. Because what is more beautiful than his country, at a world championship, in the sport one loves to represent.

After all the years in which we have "fought" each other, we now have the chance to play together for the first time and become the best women's football nation in the world.

There is a lot of speculation as to which place we will achieve and whether we can even make it into the top three in the world. Be it because of the inexperience of some coaches in women's football or the short time we have to prepare.

Of course it's difficult to found a team in one year, With 45 Players who also have to be the best in their positions, but I am confident and happy to be part of this team and I am excited to see if we can cause a surprise in the end. Even if not everything can work right away, when we all play with our hearts and keep ourselves mentally and physically fit, I think we'll rock Stockholm and definitely leave the pitch as winners, with or without a medal.

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.
