What do you know about german football?
Sport and school are to seperate thinks, school sport is just for fun here.
The most kids join the football clubs when they are very young (Starting age is about 6-8 years)
Tactics and stamina are more important for our coaches than personal skills.

We play with a good defending and a controlled offence.
We have goalkeepers that want to play that position, because we have a lot of prominet goalkeepers (Maier, Kahn, Lehman, Stein, Köpke ect.)
In a few countrys I saw that the goalkeeper were people who where to bad to play in the field. Thats something you wont find here in germany.

American soccer dont have much credits over here, so I guess they will underrate you when you are here, use this opportunity.

I dont know how long you are playing football nor your Skill level, but except very disciplined, rough defence.
But we also have teams which play a Kick n Rush.

good luck and could you report me how your "jorney" was?

*edit*

Do you already know against which teams you will play?
When you give me the names I could look for you how strong they are

The Germans take everything seriously. Expect a good level of football and a real thumping if you go in over confident or under prepared.
