Euroamfoot.com is a non-profit initiative to create a meeting place for anyone interested in American football in Europe. I know a lot of players and coaches across the continent and in the US have been missing such a place to exchange ideas, keep in touch with friends and teammates and find new contacts.

Most (young) people already use some sort of social networking site. Facebook, MySpace, HiFive, Live Spaces are just some of the popular ones. Lots of football players hook up on those sites in groups and networks. But still, I thought it would be great to have a place of our own, after all, we're the few, the brave :-)

So I thought it was time the American football community in Europe got our own social networking space. A place for our small but active community to meet. There aren't…

Oslo Vikings to play in the EFL in 2008!

We travel to Valencia to play Valencia Firebats on April 19th and host Coventry Jets on April 26th. If we win our group we travel to Innsbruck to play Swarco Tirol Raiders on May 10 for the quarterfinal game.

National Senior team took second place in the group C European Championship.

After a rough start in the European Championship with a loss to Serbia, the Norwegians managed to beat the Netherlands and secure a spot in the Final against Austria.

This was a historic championship for the Norwegian team, never before had a norwegian team won a game, and only one touchdown had ever been scored.

More to come later.

Nordic Junior Championship 2007

Aalborg; After a couple of two a days this week the Norwegian National Under 19 Team played their first game against Finland in the Nordic Junior Championship today in Aalborg, Denmark. It was a game between very even teams as both teams have to fight hard until the bitter end. The Norwegian defence did good, led by stingy play up front by the D-Line they managed several 3 and out situations, tackles for loss, forced fumbles etc thrughout the game. The Norwegian offence led by Quarterback Karl Jørgen Aanonsen, a Vikings (U19) player maintained a decent attack with smart plays while Lorenzo Tobias Proctor with Magnus Jerven in front did their part with more than 100yds on the ground. Unfortunantly, several mistakes made by Team Norway as a whole the final score was 27-00 Finland. Norway then has advanced to play the bronze final against Denmark, who was beaten 27-00 by Sweden. -Alexander Moe, D-Line Coach Team Norway U19.
