a handful of German football teams existed for a short period of time in Bavaria during the late 1940s. With the help of American military, teams formed in Bad Tölz, Freising and Fürstenfeldbruck. Werner Heim was among twenty young Germans who formed the Fürsty Eagles in September of 1948. The team borrowed their nickname and the necessary equipment from the Americans stationed in Fürstenfeldbruck whose military team went by the same name. The Eagles disbanded after only a few months in the spring of 1949, when, according to Heim, a number of team members went to study in the United States.
