Plan your trip

Near you

Tell us where you are travelling from and how. Every tournament then shows how far it is and roughly how long it takes.

Pick your city, then choose car, train or plane to see how long each trip takes.

How we estimate travel time

We measure the straight line from your place to the host city, then add a rough allowance. By car the road is about 25% longer than the line, at an 85 km/h average. By train it is the same extra distance at 90 km/h, plus 30 minutes for changes. By plane it is 750 km/h plus 3 h 30 min for airports and getting to and from them. Ferries, border waits, traffic and real timetables are not included, so treat every figure as a rough guide.

Who made this list

We play these

Ljubljana Frogs plays four or more international tournaments every season. In 2026 the club won Adria Bowl V 8-0 and finished 25-8 against international opposition and 13-5 in the Austrian league. Our Championship Bowl 2025 recap covers the top of the European club game.

Every entry here names its source. We check each one against the organizer's own website, ticket page or social account, and mark anything we could not confirm. Flag football is governed worldwide by IFAF, but most club tournaments are run by the clubs themselves, so the organizer is always the final word.
