Your site is very helpful to players and teams. I have been playing/coaching professionally in Europe for a several years and your site makes for easier communication with teams. Signed for 2009 in the Swiss League.
Thank you Europlayers.

November 2008 - Mike Brennan
I was one of the first players to register on Europlayers. I have to say that it has given me the opportunity to play in many countries that one can only dream of. I have learned many languages and improved the quality of American Football wherever I played. The experience on my profile speaks for itself.
Thank you Europlayers.

November 2008 - Adrian Lena
I would like to thank EUROPLAYERS, you guys have a great website. Your website was very useful to me. It gave me great knowledge on leagues, teams, players, and agents that was so useful to me. More importantly it put me in the right hands of the right people that eventually made me sign with the PEORIA PIRATES-AF2 on 11/10/08.
THANK YOU!!!

September 2008 - Dominic Lane
Thanks to Europlayers I was contacted and signed by the Esbjerg Hurricanes in 2007 as a Defensive Back in Esbjerg, Denmark which is a nice city with good people and some of the best teamates I have ever played with. This organization is family owned and has a board that gets involved and cares about its players also great facilities to workout and train and their own practice field. I appreciate the entire Esbjerg Hurricane staff for having me and I wish the best of luck to this team.

August 2008 - Joseph Streany
I was contacted by the Triangle Razorbacks in early February and was asked to come over to play with the 2 time defending champs here in Denmark.
My experience has been awesome 6 games into the season. We are 6-0, and I have been averaging about 14-15 tackles a game at outside linebacker and have blocked a few times in short yardage for touchdowns and first downs at full back.
The team is full of a group of guys who share my deep affection for the game and will do anything required to win come game day. That is a very comforting feeling being in a foreign country and meeting a new team. They have been very accommodating and got me nearly everything I could have needed and are extremely responsive to all of my concerns. Most of all they are a nice group of guys, personable and fun thus making my experience over here excellent! Any questions or concerns please contact me.

July 2008 - Brian Amaral
I found out about Europlayers.com from a team mate back in the USA, Greg Jones, who signed to the Carinthian Black Lions of the Austrian football league. I was very eager to play in Europe and within 3 days of creating my profile I was contacted by numerous teams. Once I got my highlight film loaded within the first week, I had been signed by the Saarland Hurricanes of the German football league, and was with the team in Germany about 2 weeks after first creating my profile. I just wish I knew about this site years ago!!!! Thanks Europlayers for giving us the chance to make solid contacts overseas.

June 2008 - Daniel Sjöholm
I was looking for a team outside Sweden, then i got in contact with the wernigerode mountain tigers.. and i love it here.. Thank you Europlayers! btw germany rules..

June 2008 - Emmett Hunter
I want to thank europlayers for giving me the opportunity to play again! I received offers from about six different teams and I decided to play for a team in Germany!

May 2008 - Carl Embry
I just had the privilege to travel with my team, Adrian College Bulldogs and play the Lazio Marines through a company named Global Football. This was my second trip to Europe. I have also been to Ireland where we played and Irish all-star team. I have realized this in my two trips to Europe, I love it! The thing I love is the eagerness and the passion that these players have for our great game. They are truly pioneers for our sport in Europe. The opportunity to coach these athletes would be indescribable in words.
I want to thank Europlayers.com for providing this opportunity.

April 2008 - Toby Atawo
I would really like to thank Europlayers.com for giving me an opportunity to find a team to play for. The website was my way to contact and establish connections with players agents and coaches. I hope others get a chance to find themselves on a roster too.

February 2008 - Kenneth Flanders
I had been searching for a way to get into contact with teams in Europe for almost 3 months. I tried using many different sites and contacting the teams directly but I was unable to find a site that was written in English. An American Coach told me about Europlayers and within a week of being signed up I made contact with, and sent game film to, 7 different teams. Europlayers is great and I will continue using it to help my chances of getting picked up in Europe.

February 2008 - Christopher Katzmark
Coach Worsell was able to set me up with a few teams, but I also used www.europlayers.com to market myself. A lot of teams are on this website and they’re able to see your information. You can post your resume, your stats, highlight tapes, etc. I was able to use this tool to market myself and several teams were looking at me because of that. [...] Katzmark graduated from Millikin in December 2007 with a degree in Exercise Science & Sport. He is one of 25 Millikin players to sign professional contracts in either the NFL or Europe.

February 2008 - Craig McIntyre
McIntyre learned of a website, www.europlayers.com, after talking with his former Eagle teammate Javid Shoemaker, who was playing in Sweden. Within the span of a little more than a day, McIntyre finished classes at EWU, flew to Milan and was playing football in Parma, Italy. "It was pretty amazing to be in Cheney and then playing in a game there 24 hours later," where his debut included three touchdowns and 100 receiving yards.
It was in Parma, a city of 160,000 he met Grisham, who was finishing work on his latest novel, "Playing for Pizza." The book was released Sept. 25, and is about an American football star who could no longer get work in the National Football League. Read More

February 2008 - Ancona Dolphins
After viewing the profile of our team on Europlayers, Bobby Kootstra (a player from Canada) contacted us. After a couple of phone calls and e-mails we decided to make him an offer for the upcoming season.
Gianluigi Luchena, H.Coach Ancona Dolphins (Italy)

December 2007 - Triangle Razorbacks
Yoan Schnee was playing for Triangle Razorbacks in the fall 2007, and it was a great success having a former NFL Europe player on the team. He taught our players a lot of valuable things, and was at the same time the greatest leader on and off the field. Triangle Razorbacks won the championship in front of a big crowd 6th October 2007, and Yoan was definitely one of the big reasons for that. Simply the best defensively player in Denmark ever.

November 2007 - Toby Henry
Europlayers had such an impact on my life, I can't even explain it. This site gave me the opportunity to travel the world while doing the thing I love to do most, play football. Thank you Europlayers!

November 2007 - Nolan Fisher
I got onto this site and within 24 hours i had an agent and was signed to play some arena ball when i thought my career was done....Thanks Again Europlayers.

November 2007 - Jeremy Clements
NFL quality talent exists everywhere and they don't have to be ex-NFL players, and thanks to this website many teams in Europe are starting to understand this. This site can help give great athletes unique opportunities they would otherwise not have here in America. After playing four successful seasons in Germany and Italy, I have received many offers from teams all over Europe thanks to Europlayers. Thanks, Jeremy Clements.

October 2007 - Mohammed Mortazavi
Europlayer.com is the bom! I had been out of college football since UC Davis in 2003 and in the middle of my 3rd year of medical school. Somehow I got the opportunity to come out and play in the AFL in 2007 while doing research. We made history with the EFAF finals, what a gift, what a blast! So GM's...dont sleep on the sleepers.

September 2007 - David Corbitt
I originally signed up for Europlayers, because a coach told me I should do so. And honestly, I'm really glad I did. It really cuts the middle man out, so that I can market myself to the teams that need players of my nature. And I really think and know that Europlayers helped me to get where I am at the moment. I'm in Germany playing with Luebeck Cougars.

March 2007 - Sea City Storm
Hello Europlayers.com. The Sea City Storm team in Finland would like to thank you for finding us a great Coach Roldan Leyba, RB Joshua Kerley and DB/WR Jeremy Kochberg. This site is great to find players of every country in the world. Still looking for 2 more and I'm sure that in Europlayers we can find them. Thanks again!!!! Jarkko Veijola SCS GM

March 2007 - Deric Demyanick
With the great help of Europlayers I will be making my fourth trip to Europe in May. This site does an excellent job with updates and its a great source for contacting teams, players, and coaches. Thank you Europlayers!

March 2007 - Brandon Despotakis
My twin brother Justin and I spent last season playing in the BAFL in England for the Southern Sundevils. It was the greatest football experience of our lives. We played for a American coach who believed in us and who gave us the opportunity to play for his team. I caught 55 passes during the season one for 92 yards and my brother threw for over 2500 yards and 22 touchdowns during the season. We helped the Sundevils get to the semi finals of the highest league in England. We wish Jim Roberson the best this season and we only wish we could be there with him again.

February 2007 - Ric Hennessy
After a great 1st season in Germany, i'm now off to the US to play in the AF2. Thanks once again to europlayers for helping me to market myself and get me this far.

February 2007 - Terrance Hall
I like to thank Europlayers for building this program to help us young athlete to reach our goals in life. I lost a full scholarship to Virginia State University in a car accident which i dislocate my hip and ankle. I couldnt walk for 8 months but after a year i got right back into playing football and it started when i play semi-pro. And thats how i got here today and thats why im on another level. And I Thank you Europlayers i should keep in touch.

January 2007 - LaQuonne Holden
I want to say thank you to all who is a part of the Europlayers website staff. With so many leagues and players vying to get roster spots, Europlayers.com makes it easy to market yourself to teams, coaches, players, agents, etc. It is the closest thing to an avenue to get a foot in the door with a team to seize an opportunity when normally, there may not have been one. Thank you Europlayers, with GOD enabling me to find this site through searching for ways to achieve my dream, I am officially a member of the Berlin Adler (GFL 1st League) for the 2007 season. Its time to fly high! Thanks Europlayers!

January 2007 - Jason Gondringer
Hey I just want to say thanks to Europlayers.com
I got a lot of interest and offers from teams, but in the end I decided to sign again with The Vikings of the German Football League (GFL) who I played for last season. If it wasn't for Europlayers.com The Vikings would have never found me. So I just want to thank you very much.
Europlayers.com is the best site out there. This site works so I thank everybody that works at Europlayers. This site is for real.
Keep up the good work! Thanks Jason.

January 2007 - Steve Dickinson
A big ten four regarding your website. It is a great tool for someone like me who was looking for an opportunity in Europe. For that matter, I think I could have landed a job in the States in an arena league by using your site. I used it daily for the last six weeks. How come it didn't come up when I did a search of american football in europe on google? Luckily for me, I was contacting the teams in Europe individually and one of the representatives recommended accessing your site.
Anyway, I wish I had known about it earlier than I did. I will be a consistent user of your site in the future.

January 2007 - Kyle Skierski
Europlayers.com really helped me market myself which allowed me to get picked up and extend my career. After trying to contact teams and local scouts in my area, I created a profile on europlayers, displayed pictures, personal info and film...and people finally started contacting me. This has led to me signing a contract with the Danube Dragons in the 1st league in Austria. This will be my 1st year playing and I can't wait.

December 2006 - Mike Stryker
I love this site!! Back in the old days (2000) I had to google teams and e-mail A LOT of teams trying to get a response. It worked but I was lucky. This site takes alot of the guesswork out.

November 2006 - Greg Kleidon
I first discovered this site 3 years ago after completing my final year at college, and trying to find a way to continue playing football as well as see the world has all been possible because of this site. I have played in Spain, Austria, and am now going on my second year playing for the Eidsvol 1814's. This site allows you to see how bad you want to fullfill your dreams, because it is you who is in charge of your networking and securing your fate. Three years ago it was only a goal to be playing and coaching full time and living abroad doing the work that i love best, and here in Norway I have found an organization that has given me the opportunity to accomplish that goal. Thank you to all the teams that use this site and all the players as well cause it is you who makes the progression of football in europe happen.

November 2006 - Gonzalo Segovia
I was cut from a CFL team but I wanted to continue playing. Thanks to this site I was able to find a team within two days. I signed with an Austrian team that won the championship in 2006. It was one of my most memorable seasons. I got to play in a league were football is still pure and I was able to travel. Thanks a lot. This web site is a great.

October 2006 - Mike Trott
I have found many great players on Europlayers and have been able to help them continue playing football professionally thanks to Europlayers!

August 2006 - Ric Hennessy
I was sat at home in England, wondering what to do with myself when i graduated, and i found Europlayers. I'm now in Germany playing for the Lübeck Cougars and loving every minute of it. Thank you for helping to push my football career further.

July 2006 - Steve Mansell
Very helpful website in helping an individual continue their football career in Europe. I finished University in 2005 and now I continue to play in the 2006 for Hamburg. It would have been much more difficult to get contact info without the use of this site. I'm now having a great time doing what I love to do in Germany.

June 2006 - Stephen Stokes
I was sitting at home thinking about giving up on the football dream. Thank goodness I had a profile on Europlayers!!! I am in Germany playing the sport I love. Life couldn't be better.

May 2006 - Kevin Jones

Apr 2006 - Scotty Kirkpatrick
I registered on Europlayers in May of 04, and a few days later I received a call from the Seinajoki Crocodiles of Finland. A few weeks later I was in Seinajoki where I ended up playing and getting a bronze medal! I have received numerous contract offers since then!

Apr 2006 - The Danube Dragons in Austria.
I got my first coach coming over by the contact on Europlayers.com. Want to thank you for the service!

Feb 2006 - The Southern Sundevils in the United Kingdom.
As a team the Southern Sundevils has advertised on Europlayers for 2 years now. In 2005 we attracted a WR, QB & RB from the USA, and this year (2006) so far we have secured a QB, TE, & 2 Offensive Linemen. None of this would have been possible without Europlayers.

Feb 2006 - Nick Starcevic
Thanks for the site... It made it easy for me to post my attributes and resume and make it easy for teams to browse video and pictures of me... I have signed w/ the Seinajoki Crocodiles of Finland for the 2006 season...

Jan 2006 - Chris Phillips
Thank you for this site. Because of you I am able to continue my career as a football player. I have signed with Barcelona Pioners and none of this would have been possible without this site. I discovered it by accident and that was the best accident I ever made. Thanks again.

He got the call during Christmas break last year and signed a contract shortly thereafter. Read More

May 2005 - Mike Tromello
I just put my name on this website, europlayers.com, and I started getting a lot of contact from coaches over in Europe. My coach at (Occidental), Dale Wildolff, really went to bat for me, kind of acted like my agent, and before long I had two contract offers: one from Sweden and one from Italy. Read More

Apr 2005 - Joel Hernandez
After posting his profile on Europlayers.com, Hernandez received a call from the Longhorns. He then sent the team a highlight film and the deal was sealed. Read More
