The latest Europe’s Top 20 as of the 7/2/14

[su_dropcap]T[/su_dropcap]his is the Top 20 for July 2nd, 2014. It was a week filled with action with many of the top teams playing. Some movement throughout. We are starting to make wins and losses more reflective in the rankings as you will see this week. For example, Swarco’s loss the Prague was a surprise and this is two of the last three games they have lost. That is the reason for the drop.  Prague on the other hand have been very impressive of late and could beat anyone on a given day.

Braunschweig and Berlin looked impressive in their German league victories and deserve the two top spots. Vienna moved up finishing first in Austria. Schwabisch Hall has entered after excellent play and with a great offense been very impressive. Cologne’s loss has dropped them. They are playing inconsistently.  Sweden’s Carlstad Crusaders are playing great football and it shows by the scores. Switzerland’s Basel Gladiators have moved up to 18 as they have grown stronger from week to week. The same applies to the Copenhagen Towers at 17.

You may not like the changes and have a different idea. Or you don’t agree at all. But let us know. Send us an email.  If coaches wish to contribute, by all means do so. In brackets, we have added each team’s overall record, including IFAF, EFAF and transcontinental play.

If you have more information, along with comments or criticism, we welcome it. Please email me at roger@eurosportsscouting.
