A GROUP of West Fifers showed they were fit for a German challenge as they came out on top of a six-a-side competition.

Participants of Dunfermline Athletic's FFIT programme travelled out to Dresden to take part in the Fußballfans in Training tournament.

After coming through six group games, a quarter final and a semi final penalty shoot out, the team secured a two-nil win in the final of the contest.

The squad of 10, which was the first Scottish side to take part in the event, was made up of people who have joined the FFIT programme at the Pars which encourages individuals over 30 to learn about healthy eating and living while sharing a common love of football.

A spokesperson for the Dunfermline team said: "The hospitality was excellent as was the organisation.

"The warm and friendly reception from everyone, in addition to being triumphant, made for an exceptional experience and is an example of just some of the potential benefits for those involved."
