Leicester Falcons American Football Team welcomed their first overseas opponents last Sunday.
German side Traunreut Munisier travelled to take part in a two-day training camp with the League 1 North team.
Chairman Guy Kearsey said: “It’s been great to have them here and the team has learnt a lot and some brilliant football has been played.”
The German side travelled to London earlier in the week before making their way to the Midlands for a training camp with the Leicester team.
The training camp gave a great opportunity for the teams to get to know each other as well as learning new skills and techniques to help improve their game.
The final day of the camp saw the two teams face each other in a friendly, with the Falcons coming away with a 30-12 victory.
