US: Fayetteville, NC – Human Foosball Tournament Raises Money for Foundation
By stan. Filed in Fayetteville, Museum, Nature, North Carolina, Special Event, Sports, United States, USA |
It’s a game that you rarely think of playing outside a five-by-two foot space. It incorporates skill, concentration and hand-eye coordination. It’s foosball, the tabletop-size game that has a household presence but with an entirely new approach.
The human version of the tabletop classic is remarkably similar to its traditional counterpart, but on a much larger scale. Teams of 6 attach themselves to fixed poles across the field and can only move to the right or left as a team, to move the ball up the field. Teams consist of 2 Forwards, 3 Mid-fielders and 1 Goalie. Watch your favorite table-top game come to life when twenty-four teams participate in this round robin tournament taking place on the grounds of the Airborne & Special Operations Museum. 
Cash prizes are awarded to the top three teams. Food and refreshments will be available for purchase. The tournament raises money for the museum’s nonprofit foundation.
