Table Football
Table Football is a table-top game and sport that is loosely based on football.
The game begins by the ball is served through a hole at the side of the table, or simply placed by hand at the feet of a figure in the center of the table similar to kick off in a game of football. Players attempt to use figures mounted on rotating bars to kick the ball into the opposing goal.
The winner is determined when one team scores a predetermined number of goals, typically five, ten, or eleven in competition.
Table football is played for fun in homes, pubs, bars, schools, and clubs with few rules. Table football is now played in official competitions organized by several national organizations, with highly evolved rules and regulations.
The ITSF now regulates International events including the annual World Championships and the World Cup. The World Cup was originally intended to coincide with the FIFA World Cup, but since January 2009 it runs annually.
Table Football is a great of fun for people of all ages and abilities.
