Trying to Buy Rugby stuff in Germany?

[Thingimubob]

I'm trying to find a shop somewhere here in Bavaria where I can pick up a rugby ball, and I'd prefer not to order one online as it's a bit dodgy receiving parcels here in my block of flats, anyone here know of a specific sports shop or chain where I can get one?

Your local Rugby Club, RFC Augsburg, has a facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/RFC.Augsburg

Try posting something on their wall.

Even if you don't speak German, if you try posting in English, someone there might be able to help you.

Most sportstores offer rugby balls: e.g. Sport direct which you find everywhere. Good luck with the quest.

Have you got a Decathlon anywhere near you?
They're over most of Europe and usually have at least a small rugby section in them (they've got their own brand of rugby stuff, possibly "Kipsta"?).

I actually know these guys, trained with a few times. Chunk of Germans with a big mixture of French and a few English and they're coached by a South African. Seems like they either brought a load with them, as most of them work for Eurocopter and travel around a bit, or just ordered stuff in to the football club they train at.

Only problem with sportstores here is it's very hard to find much past the random assortment of crap plastered with 'Bayern München'.

Actually checked out their German website the other day, they're dotted everywhere around Germany, apart from Bavaria. Only one here is in Würzburg which is a bloody treck away from the general Munich area.
