Table football (also called foosball) is a table-top
game based on football (soccer). The origins of the game are unclear, but most
historians agree that the first tables probably appeared in France or Germany in
the 1880s-1890s.
While several have claimed the honor of inventing the sport, no one has yet
been able to produce irrefutable evidence of the exact time and place of the
birth of the sport. Patents exist from as far back as the 1890s, and more detail
on these is available in the external links section. Table football is also
known in the US as foosball, from Fu?ball, the German word for football.
Foosball is often played for fun in pubs, bars, workplaces, schools, and
clubs with few rules. Foosball is also played in official competitions organized
by a number of national organizations, with highly evolved rules and
regulations. Organized competition can be traced back to the 1940's and 50's in
Europe. But the professional tours and bigtime money events began when the
founding father of modern professional table soccer, Lee Peppard of Seattle,
Washington, United States announced a "quarter million dollar tour" in 1975.
Peppard went on to award several million dollars in prize monies and since his
Tournament Soccer Organization went out of business in 1981 several orgs and
promoters have continued holding large purse professional table soccer events
worldwide. An international organization named ITSF (International Table Soccer
Federation) was established in August 2002 to bring together all of them, as
well as organizing World Championships.
Numerous local leagues exist around the world and there are huge differences
in levels of skill between "pub" players and "tournament" players. A National
League involving pub teams and University sides has recently been set up in the
UK, and on an international level the ITSF World Cup took place in May 2006 on a
variety of ITSF-sanctioned tables in Germany to coincide with the FIFA World
Cup. Austria, Germany and Belgium took the Gold, Silver and Bronze respectively.
