History of the ‘Crocs’
The Berlin Crocodiles were born in June 2001. The club founders, Johannes Junius and Stefan Voß met through the AFLG Guestbook (Australian Football League Germany) and decided to make AFL popular in Berlin. They worked together to rally support using flyers, posters and small advertisements in local magazines in adition to developing a continuing relationship with the Australian Embassy in Berlin who help spread the word.
In September, after a few weeks training, the Berlin Crocodiles had their first game in Munich for the October Fest cup (in early September) and in November had their first home game against the Frankfurt Redbacks.
On the 17.10.2001 the Berlin Australian Football Club e.V. (BAFC) was officially founded and is now officially recognised as a sporting club. The BAFC is part of the Berliner Rugby-Group who are a member of the AFLG.
A brief history of the AFLG can be found on their website: AFLG History.
