The BALTIMORE KICKERS, a German soccer club, has been in existence for more than sixty-five years. The club was founded when Eddie Thau, a former player of the Erster Deutscher Sport Klub, and Werner Juergensen, an immigrant from W. Germany, met and discussed the possibility of forming a German soccer team. The purpose was and is to promote soccer as well as the German language and the German culture.
