A call to all Master Chain players in Jugger: Uhu is currently collecting takes of the best chain player moves, to assemble them in a chain masterclass video. Read the twitter post.
We already have received a number of excellent clips, but it is still time for more—so if you are a master chain, grab your spar and send your favourite special moves! See Uhus Learn the Chain 101 Class for Beginners as an example below (though the techniques there are repeated for training purposes).
Anti-Chain techniques will also follow ... later!
Tech details: 720p landscape, zoom in on player, each technique front and one side, around 10 seconds per take; mp4 link via Mediafire, Google Drive etc. is fine.
The Uhu is inviting the Juggers for a Boot Camp in the Fränkische Schweiz this Autumn.

Lester, founder of the Berlin Jugger branch, has assembled a fantastic, huge, colourful poster about the development of Jugger since it's beginnings. It is done from a German perspective but incorporates the international development as well.
For those who seek inspiration and advice for their Jugger trainings, there are some new videos out on YouTube.
After 12 years, and 30 years after the release of the movie "Blood of Heroes", the original What is Jugger introduction video (ver. 0.85a) has been completely redone and now went live as What is Jugger 1.0, on YouTube.
In Jugger Coach: Uhus Jugger Tutorials XI, a complete training session is presented as a quick walkthrough, featuring techniques from warm-up, individual skill training up to team training and team building.
Also, a new tutorial series has surfaced recently: "Der Königsweg" by Peter's Pawns features comprehensive and pointed, well-made focus tutorials on certain aspects, starting with the base stance for differnt spars types. Language is German, but it's absolutely worth to check it out!
Okay, this is not a training tutorial by itself, but it is brilliantly done: A professional sports channel-looking recording, including SloMos and live comments, of the DM 2019 Finals in Berlin. Ansolutely worth watching and a good way to learn by the techniques of these two top-level Jugger teams!

作为中国的JuggerZero，我来写一篇中文文章。
大家好，我叫谭泉，生活在中国北方的一个城市，天津。
2016年接触到扎格，点燃了我的英雄梦。我开始查询资料，制作武器，组织玩家，最终体验到了扎格的乐趣。
与游戏不同，在游戏中屠龙打怪兽已经习以为常，然而第一次拿着武器站在一个只比你高半头的人面前，那种临场感不由得让人肾上腺素飙升，只能听见自己的心跳声。随着作战经验的增长，从一个新兵向老兵的转变，不再畏惧对手，更多的注意力转移到如何配合队友完成任务。无论是一次合作击杀还是保护球手上垒得分，都值得一个GIVE ME FIVE。
(Note /Uhu: One of our players pointed out that the chinese term for Jugger is "扎格", which is pronounced quite similarly to the English term.)

At the World Club Championships, now with 114 registered teams, the Uhu, together with the Jugger e. V., wants to call representatives of all participating teams to a Jugger assembly -- the "World Jugger Confabulatio", so to speak.
This offers be a unique chance to all of us to discuss topics with other teams all over the world, in the flesh.
[Detailed information about the meeting]
For this event, we would like to learn about the topics you want to discuss. If there are more topics than time (we calculate a total of 3 hours, with a tight moderation and time limit on each topic), we will do a quick ballot on which should be discussed.
Please submit:
Submission may either be done through a Comment at the Facebook event page, or by sending it through Uhu's contact form, or through e-mail to him directly.
+++ Due to the Corona crisis, the WCC has been postponed and should happen next year. +++ We will post a message when details are known. +++
Just a quick note here:
In 2020, August 7-9, over 100 Jugger teams will join and compete,organized by Jugger e. V. in Berlin. Inside a day, teams from these nations have already registered: France, Ireland, Spain, USA, Australia, Lithuania, Sweden, Latvia, Colombia, Austria.
There are 128 slots total and many slots reserved for international teams, plus even guaranteed participation for intercontinentals. Just keep in mind to meet the fee payment deadline to make your registration valid.
We are planning a meeting of representatives of each team and nation present, to discuss Jugger "globally" at an evening after the matches. Read more about the World Jugger Confabulatio.

The famous actor Rutger Hauer, who was the first Jugger ever since he acted as Sallow in "Blood of Heroes" and has played the ancient Jugger legend there, has died.
"Blood of Heroes" has been published in 1989, thirty years in the past.
Condolences.
Hello, dear juggers!
My name is Arturo Pérez Amores and I work as Commissioner of Communications for the Spanish Jugger Federation. You may remember my post at Jugger Worldwide on the creation of an online debate assembly by gathering up to three representatives from each 'jugging country' and then discussing common issues and goals until we reached agreements and resolutions. The comments at Facebook showed there was support, but also that some of the proposals were not very clear. Nevertheless, we saw no impossible obstacles and decided to ask every country if they would join, and this was the result:
During this process, several important questions were repeated by many different organizations, so my colleagues (Miguel Alvarado [USA] and Rickhard Nilsén [Sweden]) and I decided it was best to post out our official answers to these FAQ at this blog (there's a Spanish version at the FEJ's Bitácora). We hope they'll help everyone understand what we're trying to build and pave the way for the creation of the International Jugger Council, as we'll be sending out the invitations to the interested jugger groups in the next few days.
