What is Table Soccer?
A "communication sport" that everyone — from juniors to seniors — can enjoy together across generations.

Table soccer is played on a box-shaped table roughly 150cm × 75cm in size. Figures act as the players, and just like in soccer, you score by shooting the ball into your opponent's goal. Starting from the back (the left side facing the table): a goalkeeper, then 2 defenders, 5 midfielders, and 3 forwards on the far end — 4 rods on each side, 8 rods in total, with 11 figures in all attached across them. The figures are fixed to the rods. You grip the handles at the ends of the rods and move them to control the ball with the figures and shoot it into the goal. Both a game and a sport, table soccer also has wheelchair-accessible tables, so people with and without disabilities can enjoy it under the very same rules.
