How to CL as non German

DruckenE-Mail

Welcome to the CityLiga!
Although it is a German league, there have been international participants for a long time, for whom it might be a little bit difficult to deal with this homepage without any help. As their number increases and a bilingual homepage isn't possible, exactly that's the purpose of this article. If there are any further questions, please feel free to ask someone from the CL-staff (called 'Orga') via board, Private Message or eMail (see below).
The most important things are translated:

Both can be found in the site navigation: under 'English', where this article is also located. As we're right there, let's just explain the rest: cl-hp_menu.png
