Looks like a little more good news from Europe if these guys in Antwerp and Brussels can get a new team or teams up and running in Belgium.

I have noted that next year in June(I think) will be the 20th anniversary of the first match played in the Denmark AFL. Wondering if anybody has heard if the Denmark AFL are planning any special celebrations (could invite a Under 20's (or such like) team from Australia to play a match in Denmark :-) ) to mark the occassion.

Thanks for the thought, Cam - But the 20th anniversary was actually this year in june and the only celebration made, that I am aware of, was a big celebration day of the North Copenhagen Barracudas, who had a Legends vs Young Guns match and then an outdoors lunch BBQ, then a buffet meal and a reverse draw for 10.000DKK - social netball and cricket was also played. Around 100 people attended the event, incl. 6-7 players from the original Barracudas squad from the first game in june 1991.

Oops

Looks like I have forgotten how to count to 20, I know I have slowed down somewhat with age but a year out. WOO!!!

Could try for the aussie tourists in 2012 tho, 21 years is still a significant age milestone in Aussie :-)

Would test the AFL's resolve in promoting International Footy!!!!

The first match in Denmark played for prempership points was held on June 8, 1991, so the 20th anniversary is done and dusted.
