International youth football tournament Elsass-Spring-Cup 2011 in Kehl and Strasbourg

Interesting Facts

Welcome to Kehl, a cute little town of about 30,000 inhabitants located in Germany’s sunny south-west corner. Enjoy a walk through the charming streets of Kehl with its unmistakable mix of French and German flair, walk down the Rhine River until the “Europabrücke” bridge that connects Germany and France. Across the river, the city of Strasbourg, the socalled “Capital of Europe” (together with Brussels) with its charming old town combined with the splendour of institutional buildings inspired by „German“ architecture is worth visiting. The typically Alsatian food which is served in this region is synonymous with conviviality; the dishes are substantial and served in generous portions. Come enjoy this unique tournament – a brilliant mix of football matches, European encounters, and tented camp atmosphere.
