The players have chance to return home and visit their families before the EURO 2016 campaign truly intensifies next Tuesday. Joachim Löw and his squad will fly to Evian, where the team will be based for the duration of the tournament. Shortly after arriving on Tuesday, the first training session will take place at the Stade Camille Fournier (18:30 CEST).
It’s not just an ordinary session though. The first practice in Evian is a UEFA open training session and spectators are welcome. However, there are restrictions with tickets exclusively being given to children from schools in the area and youngsters from local clubs.
This involves the 36 winners of the German-French youth competition. The visit to the public training session is part of a four-day trip. Under the motto "Football unites!", the DFB, the German-French Youth Federation, the Goethe-Institut, the Institut Français in Germany and the French Football Federation have set out to create a German-French flag. More than 1500 contributions were received from 8000 young people - the best 20 of them were on display at the French embassy in Berlin until 17th May.
