About Jugger

Jugger is like a cross between American Football and Medieval Combat. It is a team Sport where the objective is to get a skull from the middle of the field into a zone at the opposing teams end. There are five players on each team, four of whom are paired off fightning each other with padded weapons such as swords.

When a player is ‘killed’ in these fights he has to kneel down and is out of the game for that particular round. The Fifth person is the Qwick. His job is to get the skull from the middle of the field past the opposing Qwick into a zone at their opponents endzone. He can only advance the skull once the other teams fighters are all dead. The team which scores the most skull touchdowns is the winner. [References: 3]

Report

The American Football Verband Deutschland (German American Football Federation) was founded in 1979 and featured six teams in its inaugural season, with Frankfurt Loewen (Wolves) defeating Ansbach Grizzlies 14-6 in German Bowl I. The two teams went on to dominate German American Football for the next three years, Frankfurt again defeating the Grizzlies in German Bowl II before Ansbach got revenge in German Bowl III, winning 27-6. This signalled a slow decline for the Loewen while Ansbach continued with success, winning the German Bowl in 1982 by 12-6 versus Cologne Crocodiles. German Bowl V again saw the Grizzlies compete but this time they lost 22-7 to Duesseldorf Panther, the oldest team in Germany. These two teams played in the next two German Bowls also as Duesseldorf won German Bowl VI 27-13 but lost in German Bowl VII in 1985 14-7 as yet again a team failed to capture the three-in-a-row. After 5 years of two Conferences (Nord and Sued – North and South) a Four Conference System was introduced in 1986 – Nord A, Nord B, Sued A and Sued B with the number of teams jumping from 15 to 24.

Report

Zabbar St. Patrick, founded in 1912 were not named St. Patrick until 1948 when they sought to align themselves with other areas seeking independence from England. They were relegated after finishing second last in the 10 team Maltese Top flight in 2004-05. Another Maltese team with an Irish name was Hibernians, named, like the more famous Scottish Club of the same name in Edinburgh after an old name for Ireland (Hibernia).

About

European Inter-State Ice Hockey Leagues give teams in smaller countries a chance to compete at a higher level on a regular basis as well as playing in their own National Leagues. The East European Hockey League (Ukraine, Belarus, Latvia, Lithuania), Alpen League (Austria, Italy, Slovenia), Cup of the Lowlands (Belgium, Netherlands), Atlantic League (France, Netherlands, Denmark), and Balkan League (Romania, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia) were the European Inter-State Leagues of 1996-97. Each of these countries had either competed in the World Championships in 1996, either in Pool A without qualifying for the Final Stages (Italy, Austria, France), Pool B (Latvia, Switzerland, Belarus, Denmark, Netherlands), Pool C (Ukraine, Slovenia, Romania) or Pool D (Lithuania, Yugoslavia, Belgium, Bulgaria).

Report

With the USSR already breaking up, CSKA Moscow won the Supreme League in 1991, and Rotor Volgograd the First League. The Second League was broken up into three zones, the winners being Asmaral Moscow (Central), Okean Nakhodka (East) and Karpaty Lvov (West). The Third League was divided into 10 Zones – The Last winners of Armenia (Syunik Kapan), Azerbaijan (Kazar Sumgait) and Ukraine (Neftyanik Aktyrka) as parts of the USSR or Russia were decided that year.

There were also two Central Asian Zones which would soon gain independence as five separate countries: Uzbek/Turkmen/Tadzhik Zone won by Traktor Tashkent and a Kazakh/Kirghiz Zone won by Aktyubinets Aktybinsk. The Siberian Zone was won by Lokomotiv Chita and the four European Russia Zones won by Zhemchuzhina Sochi, Spartak Anapa Rubin Kazan and Prometey Dynamo Sankt Peterburg.

With Georgia, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania already independent and running their own leagues, the USSR Football system would break up fully at the end of the year along with Communist Europe itself. The only league which geographically belongs here of those Nations is Georgia, which was won by Iberiya.

Report

Liverpool FC won the Football League Division 1 in 1982-83 with 82 points. Champions of the Lower Divisions were Queens Park Rangers (Division 2), Portsmouth (Division 3) and Wimbledon (Division 4). The top Non-League Football Champions were Enfield (Alliance Premier League).

Reserve League Champions were Queens Park Rangers (Football Combination), West Bromwich Albion (Central League Division 1) and Nottingham Forest (Central League Division 2). These were Professional Leagues for Reserve Teams of Football League teams.

Amateur Non-League Football Champions were: AP Leamington (Southern League Premier Division), Cheltenham Town (Southern League Midlands Division), Fisher Athletic (Southern League Southern Division), Gateshead (Northern Premier League), Halesowen Town (West Midlands League), Burscough (North West Counties League), Blyth Spartans (Northern League) and Wycombe Wanderers (Isthmian League).

There was no automatic promotion and relegation between the Football League Division 4 and the Non-League Football Leagues. By this stage the Alliance Premier League had become the basis for the National League as we know it today (Level 5), sponsored by Nationwide (previously Vanarama) and in between known as the Conference (sponsored most famously by Vauxhall).

It worth noting that the Football League (still known as such rather than English Football League) and Amateur Leagues had gone over to 3 Points for a win, whereas the Reserve Leagues still operated under the 2 Pts for a win system.
