I don't have any firsthand experience, perhaps some others can help?
I would think, though, that as you suppose foreign/mixed teams would be based around major cities.

Here's a link (as an example) to the Kobe Regatta and Athletic Club. kobe is a very international city, and has a well-organised foreign community rooted in the history of the port:

Our 1st, 2nd and casual teams allow players of all levels to enjoy the beautiful game. We play in city league and friendly fixtures with professional referees.

Good luck keano, please let us know how you get on!

p.s. any relation to one of my present heroes, Robbie Keane?
