• News Flash 2/98: A year ago, Rob Holmes the webmaster, promised me he'd take a foosball picture the next time he goes out, and he did! See what kind of foosball table is installed at cold, cold McMurdo Base in Antarctica! (click on the word "foosball" in the second-to-last paragraph of the page)
• 8/99: he has a new picture of the lounge with foosball table.

Foosball Malaysia site See the results of the MildSeven Foosball Challenge! (i.e. a major cigarette manufacturer sponsors a big tournament over there! I'm all for promotion of foosball, if not so enthusiastically smoking... check it out!) Also includes information on Foosball in Japan and Hong Kong.(7/99)

Danny NG Boon Keat's Foos Page (Malaysia) some pics... (6/99)

Canadian Baby-foot Federation (Canada) Brand spanking new site. Montreal-area french style babyfoot, also lists some tournaments. Primarily Garlando table play, a table apparently also used in Austria and Germany.

Queen's Foosball Club Home Page (Canada)From Queen's University in Kingston Ontario... they play on the "Roberto Sport" Table in the engineering lounge... From Matt Olmstead. (10/98)

FCBFS La Fédération Canadienne de Baby-Foot Sportif (Canada) A new Canadian French Foosball Site from Real Thibeault. Mainly Bonzini table play in Montreal, and I saw a pic at this site, they have *big* tournaments! The FCBFS is attempting a similar organization to the France-based FFBFS. (6/98)

Generation Babyfoot, Inc. (Canada) is now the exclusive importer-distributor for Canada for Bonzini. (Alain Thunier). (9/99)

Garlando Babyfoot Association (Canada) Quebec, Canada area playing locations, especially in Montreal. From Adam Imanpoor aimanpoor@hotmail.com (2/00). See also Garlando's Website

The International French Foosball Site based in Denmark I think, and includes playing locations for french-style "baby-foot" foosball around the globe, (almost-) official Danish Rules, and info on going to the Danish Open. Rene Pierre and Bonzini fans here! Brand new site! Also, the same site, but not in English: Bordfodbold: Vil du laese dansk, tryk her Link updated 2/27/98 (6/99) 

The Official UK Table-Football Home Page (UK) Includes playing locations, tournament information, and table-football association information. New site! Maintained by Will Hawkes in Cambridge and Tony Whyte in London. If the link doesn't work (supposedly the page has moved), Try this one (However, the second link had a permissions problem too 6/99).

British Table Football Association (BTFA) (UK) This organization runs a national tournament tour and has tournament info and rankings, as well as neat information on the comparison of about 10 different tables (Premier, Tornado, Garland, Bonzini, Neptuno), and table football resources. (6/99)

Bar Football Association (UK) Playing Locations, Tournament Results, Lots of Stuff! (3/99)

Oxford University Table Football League (UK) These guys team up to whip the butts of... who else but Cambridge University... (I ran into a few players travelling overseas for a crew meet in Boston... they were from oxford or cambridge, had a pushkick with a really unusual ball-forward setup, and they were dying for a "real" glasstop table to play on...) (3/98)

Oxford University-Wide Table Football League (UK), sponsored by The Duke, St. Clements. Submitted by from Dan Gallon dmailto:daniel.gallon@stcatz.ox.ac.uk (2/00)

Table Footie Association (UK) Also from across the Atlantic, but emphatically not the BTFA in form or spirit. The players are actually "Team Owners" and make substitutions the individual players (foos men) on their teams. They operate leagues and keep statistics on each foos figure, I think. This is foosball with a devotion to the soccer mentality, much like what I've seen with most Subbuteo (a flicking table-soccer game) players, who paint their figures the approriate team colors... kind of like N. American Nintendo/Playstation players' devotion to NHL Hockey 9x games, which allow construction of fantasy teams.

Japan Foosball Club Tornado Foosball in the Tokyo area from Joe Ueno. Email JFC for more info. Also see Japan Foosball Club minipage at Foosball Heaven. (2/00)

Yoko's Foosball Corner from Japan I found this Japanese page using my brother's kanji-kit-enabled browser to type in non-roman search strings. And guess what... they have Tornados in Japan! She mentions them! Also, if you are doing a search in japanese katakana, other than "Fu - ZuBo - Ru" (shown here between the quotes if your browser is able: " ÉtÅ[ÉYÉ{Å[Éã "), sometimes it is called Table-Soccer: "Te - BuRu Sakka - ", the "kk" being a little "tsu," and the hyphens being the lengthening symbol. (6/99)

Futbolín (Foosball) Page (Spain) - English version A personal web page, now in English! This is the first of many pages I've found from Espana. Notice how the spanish foosball men have two separate legs, instead of being bonded together. This allows a shot called the "drag" in which the bal is placed between the two feet, then operated, I assume, like a push or pull shot. Pagina de Web de Futbolín en Espanol The page is from Antonio Roig Ramis See also His Home Page (6/99)
