Munich Roos
The Munich Kangaroos were founded in Munich by Australian expats in the mid-1990s, the only German club except Frankfurt formed before the year 2000.
The Roos made an early attempt to start a league based around Munich, named the German Australian Rules Football Association, beginning with two teams in Munich - the Bayern Blues and Munich Whites. This league did not eventuate, with the Roos and Redbacks coming together to form the AFLG in 1999. Munich have played in the AFLG premiership season since the true home and away setup began in 2003.
The Munich Roos wear blue and white, the traditional colours of both the North Melbourne Kangaroos and the state of Bavaria (Bayern) of which Munich is the capital.
The Roos also host the Oktoberfest Cup, which has been held around Oktoberfest time most years over the past decade.
