The Austrian footie team Sturm Graz has been kicking about since its formation in 1909. They make their home at the Merkur-Arena, nestled amongst the Styrian hills of Austria.
The team flaunts a rather sprightly squab of lads, boasting 16 players with a mean age of 24 - a youthful brigade if ever there was.
Sturm Graz has certainly not been shirking their duties on the pitch this season. They've been battling away in four mainstream competitions thus far. Plying their trade in the Bundesliga, the lads have done themselves proud, occupying the summit of the league. They've also fought their way through to the quarter-finals in the ÖFB Cup. Moreover, they've managed to reach the play-offs in the lofty Champions League Qualifiers. And to top it all off, they're pitting their wits in the Europa League's league phase.
