Table football

Table football, (also known as foosball) or table soccer, is a tabletop game that is loosely based on association football. The aim of the game is to move the ball into the opponent's goal by manipulating rods which have figures attached. Although rules often vary by country and region when the game is played casually, at the competitive level table soccer is played according to a unified code.

This article is about the in-table game with figures on rotating rods. For the table-top games, see Tabletop football. For the same, played competitively, see Sports table football. For other uses, see Table football (disambiguation).
