The Mad Bulldogs first team

The Amberg Mad Bulldogs – the football team that's bringing excitement to the Regionalliga! With impressive fighting spirit and a passionate fan base behind them, the Bulldogs storm the field at the Stadion am Schanzl.

MARK YOUR TERRITORY

The Amberg Mad Bulldogs are the American football team of TV Amberg and have been playing in the Regionalliga, the third-highest league in Germany, since 2023. Founded in 2016, the Bulldogs quickly developed into a strong team in Bavaria, with successes such as an undefeated promotion from the Landesliga and Bayernliga and a Bavarian Bowl victory. The Mad Bulldogs are known for their fierce team spirit and strong defense and are supported by a large, enthusiastic fan base at home games at the Stadion am Schanzl.

The DAWGS, which includes both experienced players with a GFL background as well as young talent and American athletes, have high ambitions. The Bulldogs offer their players comprehensive support on and off the field and organize regular tryouts to develop new talent from the region. Supported by our dedicated fans, we pursue the goal of permanently establishing ourselves as a top team in American football.

Our coaches

Emmanuel has been the head coach of the Amberg football team for three years, and his greatest successes have been promotion to the Regionalliga and winning the Bavarian Bowl. Although things didn't go well for the Dawgs last season, giving up isn't an option for Emmanuel. He now wants to return the team to its former strength—and even make it better.

Dominik McGuire was a player for many years. As a defensive end, he was a fixture for the Dawgs. "Dom" also has GFL experience and, after his playing career, has decided to support his team as a coach. This is a great opportunity for the DAWGS, as he knows his former teammates extremely well and knows who has what strengths.

Daniel is an experienced and established DAWGS: He handles individual offensive positions. He has been with our DAWGS for years and is one of the best contacts, especially for our rookies on offense, and a true calming influence in the sometimes hectic game.

TBA

Heiko is an extremely experienced coach and a fixture in German football. After various stints, some of them for years, in Franconia and Upper Palatinate, we were able to convince our desired OC to come to Amberg. With a lot of commitment and new ideas, he will put the Amberg Mad Bulldogs' offense on the road to success!

With experience as a player and coach, including at Pine Bluff Dollarway (High School), in military football (Camp Lejeune) and with the New England Hawks, he brings a wide range of expertise to the team.

He was also co-owner and defensive coach of the Puget Sound Outlaws and is a certified American football scout.

Timothy McGuire is now on the sidelines for the Mad Bulldogs! We're especially pleased that another veteran DAWG, who also has GFL experience, is joining the coaching staff and passing on his expertise to our players.
