1. Efrem Intra is the new world champion Last week-end FISTF World Cup in Dortmund, Germany saw Efrem Intra (Italy), the world's n° 21 beat Massimo Cremona (Malta, n°2) to win his first open world title. Intra, 25, managed to beat Antoine Dikaios (last 32), Wolfgang Leitner (eightfinals), Giorgos Koutis (quarter) and Raul Benita (semi) before the final game. Cremona, who ended 2nd of his group, beat Saverio Bari, Eric Verhagen, Antonio Mettivieri and Gil Delogne (on shots) to prove he really deserves the 2nd sport int he world rankings. In the final, Intra scored a golden goal to win the game 2-1 in the extra-time.

In the other categories, some interesting results desevre mention. In the veterans, in a third final in a row between Martijn Bom and Renzo Frignani, the dutch world number 1 finally managed to win the title. Int he U19, shots decided the winner and Stefano Buono finally beat Arnaud Nullens. In the shout-out, one of Nullens' goals wasn't allowed while the ball had probably crossed the line. The referee asked Nullens to shot again from the same position and he missed, giving the title to the young italian.

Kristian Staal Nielsen, the world's number 1, offer the first title in the category to Denmark after a deserved win in the final against the very promising Italian Mattia Bellotti. Finally, in the ladies, Kamilla Kristensen made a fantastic appearance when she beat Delphine Dieudonné in the semi-final. Dieudonné was unbeaten in the category for more than 10 years. In the final, Kristensen defeated Austria's Michaela Scherbaum 2-0.

In the teams, titles were given to Italy in Open and Veterans, the Belgium in U19, the Denmark in U15 while France managed to get the Ladies title.

Thanks to Thossa Büsing and his crew for this great week-end. Pictures should soon be available on www.tablefootballworldcup.de (http://www.tablefootballworldcup.de) while some pictures have also been posted yesterday on Templeuve United's blog at www.subbutempleuve.skyblog.com (http://www.subbutempleuve.skyblog.com)

3. France Organisers for WC07 (from www.fromthetouchline.net.ms (http://www.fromthetouchline.net.ms)) At the annual FISTF Congress held at Roadstop in Dortmund on friday, it was announced that France would be organising the World Cup in 2007, and the venue will be Les Herbiers, in the Nantes & Cholet area. The tournament will be expected to be of a very high standard and will without any doubt be a very great tournament. More information will follow!

4. New FISTF Board (from www.fromthetouchline.net.ms (http://www.fromthetouchline.net.ms)) Current FISTF President, Vincent Coppenolle has been re-elected for another four years during the annual FISTF Congress which was held at Roadstop in Dortmund after the World Cup draws. Along with Coppenolle will be the Germans Thossa Busing and Fred Vulpes and Austrian Heinz Eder who were previously also on the board, along with a crop of new faces which include Kostas Triantafillou from Greece, Mario Spiteri from Malta and Alan Collins from England. Hopefully the new board will keep working for the sport and bringing FISTF to a higher standard. The full list of board members and their jobs are:
Vincent Coppenolle (Belgium) - President Heinz Eder (Austria) - Vice-president / Sports Director Thossa Büsing (Germany) - Vice-president Fred Vulpes (Germany) - Financial Director Alan Collins (England) - Marketing Director Kostats Triantafillou (Greece) - Communication Director Mario Spiteri (Malta) - General Secretary

The Board will also rely on some other persons to get some more help:
Olivier Père: assistant of the Sports Director for the calendar, the WC and the EC; Chris Aggelinas: assistant of the Sports Director for several jobs; Mike Ewer: official webmaster; Vasilis Koutsombinas: secretary of the disciplinary council (in charge to write down the rules first); Frédéric Perdaens: world rankings officer; Pete Motley: to help Alan Collins.

5. The board projects
FISTF is full of projects for the next 4 years and some projects will be realized soon:
- the FISTF shop will be online in a couple of days;
- improvement of the calendar & the handbook;
- work on disciplinary rules;
- ...

FISTF is also looking for players from North America to work on the project to create a North American Confederation.

6. Portugal: Open of Matosinhos delayed
The International Open of Matosinhos has been delayed. The new date will be announced soon.

7. England: Curtis is the Tigers' champ (from www.eflicker.net (http://www.eflicker.net)) Adrian Curtis was crowned the first ever Fenland Tigers club champion after their penultimate league meeting of the season at Huntingdon's Montagu Club. Curtis soared to the title despite finishing second on the night to an unbeaten John Turpin. Victories over Alex Turpin (5-1) and son Sam (6-1) set the England international up for this weekend's World Cup competition in Dortmund, Germany.

8. Belgium: Dave Wouters wins
Dave Wouters (Hot Club d'Ecosse) won last saturday "Flanders Cup", which was awarded to the winner ofa tournament taking part in Bonheiden, near Mechelen. The Dutch-speking side of Belgium organized the event while only Jos Ceulemans was representing Flanders in the Belgian team at the World Cup. Wouters deafeated Diederik Boyen (Templeuve United) in the final while Dave Le Beer and Stéphane Lambert reached the semis.

9. This week's question
Would you agree to have a world cup played on 3 days (from friday at 2.00 pm to sunday afternoon)? Do you think it would be a good idea to have a more relax schedule and to have more time int he evening to relax? Would it discourage players to travel?

Also, don't hesitate to send your pieces of news for the next issues !

In this week's issue...

1. The FISTF shop is Open
FISTF is very proud to annouce that its shop is now open at http://shop.fistf.com (http://shop.fistf.com) Take a look and think about it for your future gifts.

2. CHANGES IN THE HANDBOOK FOR THE SEASON 2006/2007 The FISTF BoD has taken some decisions for the new season. The final version of the handbook 2006/2007 will be sent later in August.

a) Starting fees:
After some discussions FISTF BoD decides another solution in this topic.
Organizers will have to publish latest 2 months before the tournament their starting fees, if they want to make them higher in any category, in that case there won't be a limit. No information means that the organizer will have to respect the limits of FISTF BoD.
FISTF BoD will inform about higher starting fees in the newsletter of FISTF and in the forum on www.fistf.com (http://www.fistf.com).

Major:
Team: 23 EUR -> 23 pound
Open/Veteran: 10 EUR -> 10 pound
Category: 7 EUR -> 7 pound

Grand Prix/International Open:
Team: 18 EUR -> 18 pound
Open/Veteran: 8 EUR -> 8 pound
Category: 6 EUR -> 6 pound

Satellite:
Team: 12 EUR -> 12 pound
Open/Veteran: 5 EUR -> 5 pound
Category: 3 EUR -> 3 pound

Challenger/Future:
Open/Veteran: 5 EUR -> 5 pound
Category: 3 EUR -> 3 pound

Prices in pounds count for England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland and Northern Ireland.

b) Transfers:
Starting with the season 2006/2007 there will be a transfer window from 1st of September till the 31st of December.
Players who didn't play in this period for the club they are registered for can change the club till 31st of December with sending the transfer form to the FISTF Sports-Department. Players who are not in any Individual ranking and who didn't play for a club can change the club during the whole season.

c) Satellites for teams:
Next season it will be possible to organize Satellite tournaments in the team category. Only clubs which are not in the Top 20 of the team ranking can take part. A minimum of 4 teams have to take part that points for the World ranking are given.

d) Creation of Future and Challenger tournaments:
Associations will be able to organize 2 new kinds of tournaments with the start of the season 2006/2007. These kinds of tournaments should be asked to the FISTF Sports-Director least 6 weeks before they are organized.

Challenger tournament:
Open: for players who are out of Top 200
Categories: for players who are out of Top 25 Maximum of points: 40 points for the winner No team competition

Future tournament:
Open: for players who are out of Top 300
Categories: for players who are out of Top 30 Maximum of points: 30 points for the winner No team competition

e) Friendly international matches:
FISTF BoD thinks that it is good to promote friendly international matches during the year.
Starting with the new season it will be possible to play international friendly matches and get points in the nations ranking for the World Cup.
There are 2 official matches between 2 nations possible per season. Both national associations have to send the confirmation of an official game to the FISTF Sport-Department latest one week before the game will take part.
If the game will take place at an international tournament, the organizer of this tournament have to be informed too.
If both national associations confirm the official game and one nation won't be present the game will be a 4x0 ff. Official friendly national games have to be played with referees. After the game a sheet with the results and the referees have to be sent to the FISTF Sports-Department to overtake it into the nations ranking of FISTF.

Points:
Victory: 20 points
Draw: 8 points
Loss: 0 points

Extra points:
10 points for beating the World's number 1 team
6 points for beating the World's number 2 team
3 points for beating the World's number 3 team

Please feel free to contact a member of the FISTF BoD if there are any other ideas. COntact: http://sites.keyworld.net/hamruntfc/ (http://sites.keyworld.net/hamruntfc/)

6. New website for the scottish association http://www.sstfa.org/ (http://www.sstfa.org/)

7. This week's question
What do you think would be the best ways to convince big companies to sponsor table football events and what should FISTF propose to offer them?

8. Last week's question
Thanks for your answers. Most people think having blue pitches is not a good idea.

In this week's issue...

1. FISTF Major of Mattersburg
2. Charity fantasy football competition (by Algy Taylor) 3. Tayside Kickers '91 4. Lega-Liga Odense 5. Worthing Fivestar 6. Subbuteo in Finland (by Kari Hakkarainen, http://home.arcor.de/mtilgner/internati ... burg06.htm (http://home.arcor.de/mtilgner/international/mattersburg06.htm)

2. Charity fantasy football competition (by Algy Taylor) Sam Munnings (formerly of Kings Norton TFC) is running a charity fantasy football competition - first prize of £500, total prize fund of £1000.
Website's www.football4charity.co.uk (http://www.football4charity.co.uk)
If you register the team business as "table soccer", then if there's 20 or more people enter we get entered in to the business league ... the winning business winning a 7-a-side match against a football4charity celebrity/old stars team, captained by former Liverpool player Neil Ruddock.
Sam occasionally runs table football tournaments in Birmingham, so I thought it'd be nice to support his charity ...

3. Tayside Kickers '91
Tayside Kickers '91 have now a website at www.taysidekickers.com (http://www.taysidekickers.com) and both Greg Dand and Gareth Christie (Hot Club d'Ecosse) will join this new club from september 1.

4. Lega-Liga Odense
Denish team Lega-Liga Odense will to change its name to TFC Vikings. Some norwegian players are expected to join the team as well.

5. Worthing Fivestar
Following an EGM held on tuesday night, and an irresistable sponsorship deal from the San Siro Co, Worthing Fivestar TFC, will now formally be known as San Siro Worthing Fivestar.

6. Subbuteo in Finland (by Kari Hakkarainen, http://www.subu.fi/ (http://www.subu.fi/) & http://forum.subu.fi (http://forum.subu.fi) In the website and forum everything is so far in finnish, but you can create a new topic in the forum in english, if you like.
During the past two weeks we have had two international visitors: Stuart Osborne from England and Eliot Kennedy from Australia. Eliot took part in the 1994 World Cup and now he is going to stay here in Finland for a year.
I believe he is going to be a great help to us, especially with our FISTF-league. Another important player in the league is Teemu Sihvola who took part in the 1996 World Cup in Silkeborg.

7. Paul Eyes's new e-mail address
Paul Eyes in the US can now be reached at http://www.wherethehellismatt.com/ (http://www.wherethehellismatt.com/)

10. This week's question
This week's question will go about predictions. According to you, who will be the world number 1 in Open categories and in the teams ranking in august 2007?

11. Last week's question
Just got no answer on how to get companies involved to become sponsors...

1. New FISTF Handbook
FISTF are very happy to announce the new FISTF Handbook is now available.
Please note also that for every tournament, organizers will have to fill the other attached file with all requested information. We insist on the fact the organizers have to respect all rules stated in the handbook as from this season, there will be some sanctions for organizers who don't respect the rules.

2. Eflicker is online again
Victor Jones's excellent website is now up and running again at eflicker.net Many updates and news have been added since the beginning of the week.

3. New website
http://le-premiere.blogspot.com/ (http://le-premiere.blogspot.com/) is a new blog with news about table football from around the world. It's worth a look !

4. Fivestar Short! (from eflicker.net)
Chris Short made a successful debut for San Siro Worthing Fivestar, as he won the club's national open event. In the final, the Sussex club's new signing overcame Phil Redman in a repeat of the English Masters decider in May, this time via a 3-2 scoreline. But maybe more impressive was his semi-final success against world number one Eric Verhagen.

5. Christie off to a flyer (from eflicker.net) Gareth Christie got his defence of the Scottish championship off to a flying start by winning the season's opening event, the Keeling Cup, in Slateford Green, Edinburgh. In a very open tournament, five players were in with a chance of winning going into the final session of swiss ladder matches. But Christie's 2-2 draw with Steve Bennett in the last round ensured that he claimed top spot on goal difference over Tayside Kickers clubmate Greg Dand. Solway's Allan Manson finished a surprise third, whilst Mike Burns was 5th, despite not conceding a goal during the tournament. The attendance of 18 players - including several from the recently reformed Tayside club and Colin Mathews, who travelled from Aberdeen - was the highest for a Scottish domestic event for many years.
Keeling Cup - top 3 of 18
1 - Gareth Christie (Tayside Kickers) 10pts (+10 GD)
2 - Greg Dand (Tayside Kickers) 10pts (+6 GD)
3 - Allan Manson (Solway) 9pts (+0 GD)

6. Open of Cormons (by Marco Pinausi)
The new official website of I.O. Cormons is : www.opencormons.eu (http://www.opencormons.eu) The website is under costruction, but I think will ready for the end of the week.

7. Verhagen's finishes as he started (from eflicker.net) Eric Verhagen has finished the season as he had started it, by topping FISTF's world rankings. Verhagen lost pole position in June, when Massimo Cremona overtook him following an appearance in the World Cup final, but a return to action in the large European tournaments, after spending time overseas, saw the Dutchman quickly reclaim the number 1 spot. Cremona ends the season second in the table, ahead of Vasco Guimaraes in third and fourth placed Carlos Flores. World champion Efrem Intra moves up two places to 5th in the August rankings, after victory at the Mattersburg Major, the only full international event held in the month. Massimo Bolognino (7th, down 2) and Alain Hanotiaux (12th, down 4) are amongst the noticeable fallers, but their Eagles Napoli side take back top spot in the team standings following their success in Austria.

8. Putney SC agree link-up with Stefan Corda Stefan Corda are to become sponsors of the new look Putney league, which starts in October. The table football manufacturers - internationally renowned for their high-quality hand-painted figures and producers of Raptor G2-A bases and the budget, but highly regarded, Raptor G2 and IMAGE2 bases - will provide a trophy for the club champion. They will also supply playing equipment, which will be used either as prizes or to pass to new players at the club. The news comes days after the club agreed to replace its traditional league system with a swiss ladder tournament championship-style circuit, to encourage a wider range of players to compete.

11. Subbuteo in Nuts
In last week's edition of Nuts (a magazine in the UK) it describes the FISTF Trophy, as won by Efrem Intra, as "a sort of a rubbish paperweight".
Was it supposed to be funny?

2 months before the tournament. No information from the organizer means that the organizer will have to respect the limits of the FISTF BoD.

1. Grand Prix of Verviers postponed
The FISTF Grand Prix of Belgium in verviers will be postponed to a new date, probably in february, after the organizers were announced by the owner of the hall that the premises were not available anymore.

2. First Challengers to be hold in Belgium and England The first ever FISTF Challengers should be hold soon in Belgium and England. AS Hennuyer, Olivier Père's club, will host a Challenger in the village of Eugies on October 21. Contact: victor.jones@ukonline.co.uk (mailto:victor.jones@ukonline.co.uk)).

3. Tutorial for new players
http://flick2kick.typepad.com/flick2kick/ (http://flick2kick.typepad.com/flick2kick/) has a new video futuring Zach Walker & Patrick Sheridan explaining the basics of the game. New players will definately enjoy the video.

4. Clegg is the new Northern Ireland champion (from eflicker.net) Davy Clegg became Northern Ireland champion for the third time on Saturday, ending an 18-year wait since his previous success in 1988.
The North Down player beat no.1 seed, Kenny Beggs in the Open final with a
2-1 shoot-out victory, following a goalless draw.
The final was played at a fast pace, with Clegg living up to his motto 'attacking play all the way'.
Beggs created a few good chances but it was Clegg who looked more dangerous in the closing stages of the game, his final touch just letting him down when he was clean through and a last-second shot just whizzing past the post.
Extra-time could not separate them but Clegg again held his nerve to win his second shoot-out of the day, and add to the titles he won in 1987 and 1988.
The pair had earlier met in the Veterans' final, which Beggs won 3-0, but Clegg recovered well to turn the tables on his old rival in the main event.
Indeed, it was a day when experience counted, with the same players making the last four in both the Open and Veterans. Donal Convery and Stephen Rodgers being the unlucky losing semi-finalists in each event.
Adam Scullion won the under-15 final in impressive style, beating Judith Morrison 4-0, while last year's U15 champion, Peter Morrison - now too old for that category - beat his brother, Andrew, in the under-19 final.

5. New forum for the game in the Flanders Table football in the Flanders (dutch-speaking side of Belgium) is still growing and the local organizers have developped a forum at http://www.subbuteovlaanderen.be (http://www.subbuteovlaanderen.be) . A website is also under construction at http://www.subbuteovlaanderen.be (http://www.subbuteovlaanderen.be)

1. Peterborough & Athens: good luck
FISTF want to wish good luck to all players and clubs frot eh new season, which will start next week-end with the Satellite of Peterborough and the Open of Athens.

2. Reminder for organizers
Organizers of FISTF events should not forget to fill the new file specially made for tournaments. Please don't forget that financial sanctions might be taken as described in the handbook if the file isn't filled corretly.

3. Reminder for national associations
National associations should not forget to send the FORM 01 with all the details of their board and their contact persons.

4. Clarification ont he Europa Cup
FISTF Want to confirm the only reason why there will be 28 teams at the Europa Cup is that we had 26 registrations and to make things easier (to have 4 groups with the same number of players), we took the first 2 substitutes. The rules from the handbook state that the countries that have no team qualified from the world rankings have the priority, then countries that have only one team qualified from the world rankings,... That's whay San Srio Worthing 5 Star (England) and SL Campolide (Portugal) were selected. We are very sorry to have very negative and unfair comments from players from one team in particular (I prefer no to give the name of the team so that they will not be offended) but this team respect the fact that they were not qualified from their national criterias. FISTF understand that the very vast majority of players and clubs is happy with the current schedule of the Europa Cup though.

5. Challenger in Eugies/Frameries
The invitation file is now available from Olivier Père at manarssa2@gmail.com (mailto:manarssa2@gmail.com) or manarssa2@gmail.com (mailto:manarssa2@gmail.com) or timmyspiteri@gmail.com (mailto:timmyspiteri@gmail.com)

9. USA: PSFS Puts on a Show... (by Paul Eyes) The Philadelphia Subbuteo Futbol Syndicate (PSFS) put on a great show for its first ever ASA Open event (Delaware Valley Open), September 16th. The tournament was held in a meeting room at the Courtyard Marriott in Newark, DE. The hosts had the tournament wrapped up by 3:30, thanks to the advanced scheduling work of Steve Laskey and the fast computer skills of Ted Koziara, who I witnessed create an Excel spreadsheet document within minutes to record scores and calculate standings, impressive stuff Ted! 15 players were scheduled to compete, and 3 groups of 5 had been drawn the previous evening. Unfortunately, Anthony Rubbo was a late withdrawal, so his games were recorded as an 0-3 forfeit loss. Top 2 from each group, plus best two 3rd place finishers were to advance from the group phase.
Highlights of the group play included the dancing of Eddie Davidson, and one of the cleaning ladies at the hotel showing an interest in playing. On the tables, Gregg Deinhart and Patrick Sheridan played out a 0-0 tie.
Sheridan then impressively went on to top his group over the 7 time National Champion. Results from the KO phase:
Quarter-finals:
Eyes 1 Russell 0
Morgans 1 Sheridan 0 (OT)
Conturso 4 Mishtal 0
Deinhart 3 Jeff Davidson 0
Semi-Finals:
Eyes 4 Morgans 0
Deinhart 2 Conturso 0
Final:
Eyes 1 Deinhart 0

The final was a very close contest, with Eyes scoring after 7 minutes, then holding on to the lead. Late pressure from Deinhart resulted in a shot off the crossbar with the last flick of the game. In the consolation final (Benjarmin Franklin), Daniel Cranston defeated Eddie Davidson 3-0. Please check photo albums (left) in the coming days for pics of the event.

1. Europa Cup
SC Elbeuf will not be present and 1st substitue team , Barcelona (Spain), have now cofirmed they will be present. If any other teams is cancelling it's participation, the next substitue is Bologna Tigers (Italy).

2. Falcons star soars to victory (www.eflicker.net (http://www.eflicker.net)) Giorgos Koutis was a sudden death winner over Dimitris Mavromitros in the final of the International Open of Athens on Sunday. It was the Falcons player's fourth FISTF tournament victory in Greece, having won previous events in October 2002, October 2004 and February of this year. Kostas Triantafyllou and Nicos Beis reached the semi-finals of the 39-player main event, whilst their respective club sides, Falcons and Roligans, continued their dominance of Greek tournaments by contesting Saturday's teams final.
And Roligans started this season on top by winning 3-1, after twice finishing second to their rivals in team events during the last campaign.
Three new clubs participated in the team event. Rafina returned after a 3-year absence, AEK Athens made a first ever appearance while Athens Kickers had been non-active for more than a decade. Newly merged Atlas-Glyfada secured a double in the individual categories, as Nikos Antonopoulos was the champion of the 4-player U15 event and Lazarus Papakonstantinou made a successful debut in the veterans' category, by winning the 5-player event. Results available by e-mail.

3. Satellite of Peterborough: Beggs bags 'boro booty (www.eflicker.net (http://www.eflicker.net)) Kenny Beggs took the first individuals' honours of the new season when he beat Steve Hawkins 3-0 in the final of England's Peterborough satellite event. However the Northern Ireland international's path to the final was every bit as tricky as his journey from his native Belfast to compete in the East Midlands tournament. Simon Gale pushed him close in an eventual
3-1 group defeat for the Putney player, while Simon Bryan went one better and held Beggs to a goalless draw. And whilst Rob O'Hare was beaten 3-0 in the quarter-finals, Beggs had to overcome a one goal deficit against Adrian Curtis in the semi-finals. David Lauder lost 3-2 in overtime to Hawkins in the other semi, but was involved in a more thrilling quarter-final encounter with Malc Dickson, where the Welshman had led 2-1 at the interval and 4-2 with just 3 minutes remaining. However two late strikes by Dickson forced overtime, before Lauder had the final say as a goal six minutes into the extra period sealed a 5-4 victory. Anthony Collins took two noticeable scalps during the day, first beating number 5 seed Martin Hodds 1-0 to top his group, then thrashing Bryan 3-0 in the barrage round. The Manchester youngster however lost 4-1 in the quarter-finals to Hawkins, who had earlier faced difficulties against another of the improving English U19 players, Matt Lishman. Lishman dominated their group stage encounter, hitting the frame of the goal four times, but he couldn't score and it was the experienced Hawkins who was fortunate to emerge with a point from the goalless draw. Lishman had however needed the win to progress after losing
2-1 to Rob O'Hare - having led with three minutes to play - in his opening game. O'Hare had put in a dreadful display to lose 5-1 to Hawkins. Fortunes improved for Cypriot international O'Hare though, as a goal early in the second half sent former Peterborough satellite champion Alan Collins packing in the barrage round.
* Ed Whitehead retained his U19 title, again at the expense of twin brother Tom, this time winning 3-2 after overtime. Jon Bryan and Sam Curtis reached the semis. Adrian Curtis won the veterans' title with a 3-2 success over Richard Pepper.

6. Scotland: Bennett just avoids Burns (www.eflicker.net (http://www.eflicker.net)) Steve Bennett won the Clairbois Cup by the slenderest of margins on Sunday.
Bennett was left tied on points and on goal difference with Mike Burns in the four round swiss system event in Dundee, Scotland, but the Tayside player took the title by virtue of having score more goals - ten to Burns'
seven. Going into the final session, Bennett had trailed on goal difference; however a 4-0 success over Iain Bell pulled him level alongside Burns, who defeated Gareth Christie - winner of the Scottish circuit's first event in Edinburgh - by a single strike.

1. Reminder for the organizers
After some mistakes were made int he draw of the Mislata Open, I want to let people know that there are rules in the FISTF handbook on how to make draws. Here is an important point to be remembered:
"The tournament organizer has to make the draw the way that if it is possible (means that less teams/players from the same country than number of groups are taking part) teams/players from the same country won't be drawn to the same group."

2. New book about Subbuteo (by Jamie Ballard) As you may be aware there is a new book about subbuteo, by the son of Peter Adolph which is being released for sale on 11th October 2006. The title is ''Growing up with Subbuteo''. Here is the press release.
"Mark Adolph was the envy of his schoolmates - he never had any problem getting rare Subbuteo teams because his Dad invented the game and owned the factory that made it. Mark tells the story of Subbuteo from the very early days when his father Peter had thousands of orders but no games with which to supply them. He recounts his father's adventures in football as a director of Tonbridge FC and supporter of Queens Park Rangers, as an avid collector of luxury cars and as "a bit of a rogue". Did you know why the game is called 'Subbuteo'? It's because Peter Adolph wanted to call it 'The Hobby' but was persuaded this was not specific enough. Peter was an ornithologist and Falco Subbueto Subbueto is the Latin name for the bird of prey The Hobby Hawk. Peter began his adventure with an advertisement in "Boys Own" magazine in 1947 offering a new table top football game for 7/6d (37.5p in new money). At that time the idea was just that, an idea, and Peter went off to New York to value a birds' egg collection. Once there, he got a telegram from his mother asking what she should do with GBP 7,500 worth of 7/6d postal orders, worth about GBP 750,000 in present terms. Then began the frantic process of making the game and suggesting it should be played on a pitch made from an old Army blanket."
Anyway the book costs £7.99 however if you pre-order it from ''PLAY.COM''

3. Europa Cup for club
Updated news on the tournament's official website at http://eurocup2006.no.sapo.pt/portugues/local/local.htm (http://eurocup2006.no.sapo.pt/portugues/local/local.htm)

4. FISTF Tour: Mödling Open (by Manfred Pawlica) On Saturday, TFC Mattersburg won the International Open Of Mödling in the final against the D.E.V.I.L.S. Austria. TFC Wr. Neustadt and Mattersburg B reached the semis. The tournament was well organised from the TVB Mödling.
The venue was a part of a church, a wonderful place to play Subbuteo. Only the D.E.V.I.L.S. had problems with this place. It´s not possible to win in a holy church (lol).
On Sunday Wolfgang Leitner won 2:0 against Manfred Pawlica the final of the open category. Wolfgang beat David Busch in the semis and Manfred beat Erich Hinkelmann on shoots.
Other winners:
Veterans : MARIUS ANASTASIOU gg. Alfred Strommer

Exciting international event played last weekend in Valencia, with the participation of the best spanish players plus foreign presence, Italy and Portugal. The winner in team competition (8 teams) was Catalunya FT who beat AS Murciana in the final thanks to a goal scored in the last moments by Leon to u-19 player Noguera, giving to Catalunya the goal difference victory because the game finished draw 1-1 (2-3).

1. FISTF Masters
The venue and date for the FISTF World Masters Malta 2006 is now agreed and confirmed.
It will be held at the Marsa Sports and Country Club, a prestigious club which was founded in 1888 and which includes a lot of sporting facilities including the Royal Malta Golf Club, cricket, tennis, squash, gym etc.
(visit www.marsasportsclub.com (http://www.marsasportsclub.com))
The tournament date will be SATURDAY 18 NOVEMBER 2006.
All players will be accomodated on a bed and breakfast basis at the Hotel Valentina in Paceville. (www.hotelvalentina.com (http://www.hotelvalentina.com)). MTFSA will be paying for two nights, ie Friday 17 and Saturday 18 for all 12 players and 6 referees.
All other accomodation can be booked directly with the hotel at the very favourable rate of MTL8 (EUR 20) per person per night on b&b basis in twin.

2. Why so many names are missing in the FISTF rankings As you can see in the latest rankings (september), hjundreds of name have been removed. The players who don't appear anymore are those who didn't provide their birthdate.
The goal of the FISTF Rankings Department was to provoke a reaction to let people know that we are unhappy of the behavior of both the Organizers and the National Associations. Both should provide the details of their players. We just decided to remove all players when we don't have their birthdates. Looks strange but the number of reaction let us think that, after all, it was a good idea.
Organizers who might have a problem for the seeds of their tournament can contact Freddy (www.eflicker.net (http://www.eflicker.net)) Efrem Intra has capped an excellent season by being voted Player of the Year in the 2006 eFlicker World Table Football Awards. The Italian - who won the youth title at the 1999 European Championships - emerged from a position of a relative unknown amongst his country's many notable players to become world champion in June, beating Massimo Cremona in the final, then finished the season by claiming his first Major, at Mattersburg in August. With a good level of concentration, Intra has proved very hard to beat. He had given a hint of what was to come when he triumphed at the Brussels Open at the start of the year, amid a tough field in the Belgian capital, before wining the Beausoleil Grand Prix at Easter. Intra also enjoyed success with his Stella Artois Milano team. And his achievements have been recognised by his fellow players, as he took almost half the votes cast in the main category of the inaugural World Table Football Awards.
World Cup runner-up Massimo Cremona claimed second place in the poll, just ahead of Vasco Guimaraes and Eric Verhagen.
Delphine Dieudonne pipped Kamilla Kristensen to the female award, despite being beaten by her rival at the 2006 World Cup. Belgium's Dieudonne has however excelled in the main section of many of Europe's key tournaments, such as the London Open, where she reached the semi-finals.
There was though Danish success in the youth category as Kristian Staal Nielsen, who picked up individual and team medals at U15 level in the World Cup, was voted Young Player of the Year ahead of world U19 champion Stefano Buono.
The Future Talent Award proved the most closely fought category, with just
3 votes separating the top four. Mark Gauci was eventually highlighted as the pick of the up and coming players, after winning the South Queensferry Open and reaching both finals of March's international double header in his Maltese homeland.
The accolade of Team of the Year was a little more clear cut as Eagles Napoli, who have dominated the Majors in recent seasons, finished some way ahead of DEVILS Austria and Perugia.
The development of Maryland SC - the Club of the Year - received recognition not only from within America, but also from sectors of all of the major European playing nations.
The east coast club hosts the acclaimed US international double header, boasts a youth section with over 70 players - making it the largest such league in the world - and has the national champions at U19 (Patrick Sheridan), veteran (Paul Eyes) and effectively open (Zach Walker) levels.
Much of the rapid expansion and advancement is down to the hard work of Paul Eyes.
Amsterdam's Grand Prix was selected as the best tournament on the circuit for the season. The Dutch competition provides great organisation, with few delays, a nice venue, good transport arrangements for competitors and - for some - nice evening entertainment! As one person pointed out, all that's missing is for a bunch of great Italian players to take part.
* The winner of the eFlicker Merit Award will be announced later this week.
* All winners will be immortalized online in the forthcoming eFlicker Hall of Fame.
* Next year's World Table Football Awards will see the addition of three new categories: Pan-Pacific Player of the Year (non-European), International Fair Play Award and Best Publication (website or magazine).

4. Harvey remembered (from www.eflicker.net (http://www.eflicker.net)) The Beavington tournament makes a welcome return to the Welsh Grand Prix in Cardiff on Saturday week.
Held in memory of the late Harvey Beavington, who died at the age of just
29 in 2000, the contest is the embodiment of the Welshman in the sporting and laidback atmosphere in which it is played.
To some, the competition is more important than the Grand Prix itself.
The Beavington will take place after the individuals' finals, as ever as a 3-a-side event played over three 5 minutes sessions with no breaks. Teams are drawn randomly according to experience.
Two years ago the winners were Eric Verhagen, Algy Taylor and Dan Nicholls who beat Massimiliano Nastasi, Sam Curtis and Robert Ramsey in the final to win the £150 prize between them.
There will also be a sudden death shoot-out competition for those not reaching the quarter-finals of the Open - which includes all veterans, youths, juniors and ladies - with a crate of lager for the champion, unless they are aged under 18.
A further crate of lager is on offer to the winner of the plate competition.
Entries to the main event are now approaching 100 in the individuals and 21 teams have entered for the Sunday.
And competition manager John Lauder is keen to stress that registered entrants unable to make it to the tournament should advise the organisers as soon as possible.
"It is a real pain all round when someone fails to turn up, just because they can't be bothered to pick up the phone or send an email to confirm they cannot make it", he said.
"The last Cardiff Open only one person failed to attend and he lived 10 miles from the venue. This meant rearranging the referees and someone who had travelled 600 miles had to sit out two rounds.
"Even when they had nearly died on the M6, Alan Collins and Brian Daley still managed to phone me at 7am to say they had crashed their car and were unable to hire another."
The closing date for entries is Thursday 12th October. Flick off for both days of the tournament at the prestigious Millennium Stadium is 9.30am, with registration at 9am.

5. Promotion in Sicily (from www.cagliaricalciotavolo.net (http://www.cagliaricalciotavolo.net)) The Sport of Subbuteo was promoted at a Family Festival in front of hundred's in Sardinia, Italy, on sunday 1st october. All at the festival were invited to play against local Cagliari Calcio Tavolo players (Licheri E.,  Migliavacca E., Damasco R., Figus G., Figus L.) +  Ezio Orrù (ACS
Bergamo) and invited guest Steve Hawkins (English Premier League).
A grand final game took place between Steve Hawkins and Riccardo Damasco in front of a large audience. An enthraling final was decided on shots, with Steve winning. More important thought was the promotion of the great sport of subbuteo + hopefulls more players joining the Cagliari Calcio Tavolo subbuteo club.

6. France: Abecassis wins again
Lionel Abecassis beat René Rouzaud in the final of the national tournament of Pau to retain last year's title. 39 players were competing and the tournament was honored by the presence of national FV Station FR3. Lionel Abecassis also claimed the Veterans title while Anaïs Lacroix-Birke (ladies), Joris Bois (U15) and Julien Etienvre (U19) were the other winners.

1. Cardiff GP: Kasper Bennett rises again The Millenium Stadium was this week-end's fantastic venue for the Grand Prix of Wales with almost 100 players coming from all over Europe to compete in a very nice tournament. Most of the top favorites lost in the early rounds and two of the outsiders manages to reach the final. England's Kasper Bennett beat world's number 1 massimo Cremona in the semi-final to meet Greece's Lazaros Papakonstatinou. The guy from the San Siro Worthing Five Star finally beat the Greek 2-0 to win his first major title. The D.E.V.I.L.S. Austria managed to beat Atlas Glyfada (Greece) to win the team title while Phil Redman (veterans) and Matt Lishman (U19) were the other winners of the week-end.

2. Open of Cormons: Flores's revenge
A few weeks after he lost the final of the Mislata Open, Carlos Flores had a great week-end in Cormons as the Spanishman brought back two titles at home. Flores won the individual tournament after a close final against Austria's Wolfgang Leitner while the Bologna Tigers manage to win the teams title. Günther Bamberzky (D.E.V.I.L.S) won the veterans tournament and Mattia Bellotti (Napoli 2000) was the best U15.
* Meanwhile FISTF wanted to congratulate the Cormons organisation team for beaing the first tournament this season to perfectly comply with the administrative rules of this year's FISTF Handbook.

0-1 to Roy. The LaPorte, Indiana based Maple City team won 2-1 against the Michigan Kestrels, gaining revenge for a defeat by the same scoreline earlier this year. Brian Bostelman lost the key match that time, but won it this time round, beating Ian Roy 1-0.

5. Malta: Samuel Bartolo retains Christmas Cup Samuel Bartolo succeeded in winning the Xmas Cup for the second consecutive year after beating Charles Aquilina in the final 3-2 on shots. Aquilina took the lead in the first half with Bartolo coming out more aggressive in the second half where he managed to equalise and also could have scored the winning goal in normal time. The game finished 1-1 after extra time with the shots determining the winner. With this victory Bartolo have now won the cup for 3 times and has managed to equal the achievements of club mates Mark Gauci and Joe Borg Bonaci. In the semi-final Bartolo gained a 2-0 against Joe Borg Bonaci while Charles Aquilina eliminated Derek Conti 3-2 on shots. This year the prominent Bartolo has registered with the Greek club Atlas Glyfads FTC for whom he is playing this year. He is also occupying the 103 position in the ranking within the international body Federation of International Sports Table Football with 174 points.

6. Malta: Calletta Subbuteo Club: Richard Abdilla Castillo elected president Following the resent resignations of the outgoing president Derek Conti and committee member Samuel Bartolo due to personal reasons, the remainder members of the Committee co-opted Brendon Borg, Robert Azzopardi and Mark Gauci to form part of the new team. During the first meeting held today at the rational committee lunch the duties of the new Committee were discussed and approved. The Committee for the rest of this season would be composed as follows:
President & Financial Director: Richard Abdilla Castillo General Secretary & Communications Director: Joe Zammit Pavia Web Site  Director: Malcolm Abdilla Castillo Sports Director: Robert Azzopardi Assistant Sports Director & Club Upkeep: Mark Gauci Social Activities Director: Brendon Borg

7. Malta: Gauci off to a winning start (from timesofmalta.com) The Malta Table Football Sports Association (MTFSA) recently staged its first competition for 2007 - the second circuit event open exclusively for locals. Some players looked jaded after the festive break. Perhaps, one of the major surprises was Joe Zammit Pavia's progress from a tough group phase. However, he was ousted in the first KO stage by Mario Camilleri.
Massimo Cremona, on a high after retaining his no.1 world ranking last month, made it to the final after a string of great performances. But, it was Mark Gauci who stole the limelight. After a stuttering start where he lost to Kenneth Attard in the qualifying round, Gauci went on to occupy second place in the group and a place in the knock-out phase. He had the better of Derek Conti (5-1) in the quarter-final and then Samuel Bartolo
(1-0) in the semis. The final was a very tight match. Gauci twice took the lead but Cremona levelled the score on both occasions. Then, in the last few minutes, Gauci scored his third and decisive goal. There was little time for Cremona to react as Gauci went on to collect maximum ranking points for his victory.

9. Looking for logos
Friedel Molinaro from Hitdorf in the meantime - especially thanks to the support of Nico Marks - has compiled most of the logos of teams that played in the Europa Cup since 1993. There are only missing informations about the logos of the following clubs:
FTC Beausoleil (FRA)
Louvroil FTC (FRA)
Olympique Vitry (FRA)
FT Cannes (FRA)
FTC St. Symphorien (FRA)
TSC Latina (ITA) - they had stickers some years before!
SC Genova (ITA)
Leamington TFC (ENG).
Friedel especially begs the French players to support him with informations.
Anyone who can help please contact Friedel by email vincent@fistf.com (mailto:vincent@fistf.com)

1. Carlos Flores on top in Oldham
Carlos Flores (Spain/Bologna Tigers) won last sunday's Grand Prix of England after a thrilling final against Massimo Cremona (4-2). Flores had previously beaten Joseph Borg Bonaci, Darren Clark, Chris Thomas and Eric Verhagen verhagen before reaching the final. Sérgio Loureiro had also reached the semis but lost to a single goal against Cremona.

Bologna Tigers, with both Flores and Loureiro, also won the team event after a close final against Mattersburg (Austria). Austria's Christian Haas took the U19 title while Phil Redman beat Riccardo Marinucci in the veterans final.

There are nice pictures of the event at
http://www.ctp-gallery.co.uk/TS-070120/ (http://www.ctp-gallery.co.uk/TS-070120/)

2. Severino Gara wins in Rome
Last week-end's FISTF Satellite of Rome was a huge success as 72 players and 13 teams were taking part. Local player Severino Gara manages to beat last year's winner Enrico Giudi 3-2 in the final (golden goal). The local team of Black Rose won the team tournament after a 4-0 final against Sessana.

3. Friendlies in Oldham
The US team at the Grand Prix of England played two friendly games. The US lost to Denmark (0-3) but managed to beat Scotland (3-0).

4. FISTF archives files

Nicolas Wlodarczyk won the final of last sunday's national tournament in Sucy en Brie against Thierry Vivron (1-0). Nicolas Lefebvre and Marc Guyot reached the semi-finals.

7. England: new league in Perth (from the SPF forum) Some players would like to start a league in Perth with season one running from end February to May/June. If the people who have intimated an interest to take part play I will be running a league with 5, possibly 6 players.
They are all pretty much learning the game again from scratch so its a bit of a learning curve but hopefully some of us will be appearing at some of the events coming up soon. If any of you are aware of any players in the Perthshire area who maybe looking for somewhere to play feel free to pass on my email address - hipfingerphilippe@hotmail.com (mailto:hipfingerphilippe@hotmail.com)

1. FISTF is looking for...
...Someone who might write tournaments reports for the FISTF website and the FISTF newsletter. The candidate should have english language skills, a knowledge of table football and its players and be available to write reports in the 24 hours following events (when results are available). A bare minimum of PC knowledge is a must. Candidatures can be sent to Vincent Coppenolle at http://www.subbuteo.ca/ (http://www.subbuteo.ca/) is on-line! Mike Ewer has produced a super webpage for the canadian association and FISTF hopes that it will be a great tool to develop the game in the country.

5. Looking for World Cup logos
Any person who can find the logos of the FISTF World Cups
2001-2002-2003-2004 should send a copy to Laurent Garnier www.laziotfc.com (http://www.laziotfc.com) too! The club recently constituted a non-profit sport association, following the official guidelines of the Italian Federation FISCT, made compulsory from this season for all Serie A and B clubs. Although still in Serie C, as other clubs in the same division, Lazio preferred to acquire this new status straight away in order to be able to access funds and programmes available by law for this type of association in the country.
With this occasion we changed the name from Lazio CCTS to Lazio TFC (Table Football Club)

9. Austria cup (by Christian Blümel)
Austrian Cup was played last weekend in Traiskirchen. Mattersburg won the Team Event against the DEVILS Austria 3:0. Royal 78 and Mattersburg B were the semifinalists.
In the individual final Markus Matzinger beat Karl-Heinz Haider 4-3 in overtime. Robert Lenz and Christian Blümel reached the semis.

10. Open of Traiskirchen (by Marcus Tilgner) The webpage for the Austrian IO in April is running since several weeks now.

11. New contact person for Malaysia
Here are the details of Edwin Wong, our new contact person in Malaysia. I wish Edwin the best of luck to organize the game in Malaysia and hopefully to host some FISTF tournaments in the near future.
Name: Edwin Wong.

12. Johannesburg Open rehearsal news (by Reza Bodiat) With the Johannesburg open just a week away....a  few of us got together today (3 February) to have a mini tourney in order to get  some game practice and ensure everyone understood playing rules  etc.
Clifford Graaf will no doubt go into next  weeks tourney as firm favourite after having a fantastic day in playing 5 games  and winning 5. He possesses patience, precision and accuracy and is no doubt  the firm favourite to win the the SA OPEN next week. Taariq Bodiat will be favourite to win the juniors section after impressing in his  games.
As for myself, I was very dissapointing and had an  off day...losing to Graaf on each occassion. He is really good.....best i've  seen this side of the world. Glad we have his pedigree on our side.
More from the Open next week........

1. World Cup website
The link to the official world cup website is www.football-de-table.com (http://www.football-de-table.com) The pages are still under construction though. There will be a french version first and the english version will be available in a couple of days.

2. Vasco Guimaraes, king of Elbeuf
Vasco Guimaraes won his 7th open title in a FISTF Major this week-end. The portuguese player beat Spain's Carlos Flores in the final (1-0). Alex Iorio and Eric Verhagen reached the semis while Cremona, Dejardin, Bolognino and Loureiro didn't manage to win their game in the last 8 round. 145 players from 10 nations were taking part, including 96 in the open category. Lots of surprises happened in the early rounds. Claudio Dogali defeated world champion Efrem Intra in the last 64 round while Alain Hanotiaux and Sami Targui didn't manage to reach the 3rd round.
24 teams were competing in the team event. Italy made another sensational tournament and managed to bring three teams in the semi-finals but finally, the Belgians of Charleroi won the tournament after they beat Napoli and Perugia in the final. it's the 3rd time the boys from Charleroi win a Major after Mons 2000 and Sucy 2001.
Italy had a great consolation though as the very promising Mattia Bellotti won the U15 title after a close win (2-1) against Julien Dardenne from Belgium while Giacomo Monica beat Severino Gara in the Veterans final.
Belgium dominated the U19 tournament. Logan Carette and Justin Leroy were expected to play the final together but they had a lot of bad luck in the semis. Leroy qualified on shots to Ralf Grégoire while Kevin Dröhsler defeated Carette 5-4 in the sudden death. Leroy gave no chance to win the Dröhsler in the final though (3-0).
The new Ladies world number 1, Françoise Guyot, managed to keep her title of last year. The french girl defeated her sister Arielle in the final.
Guyot, who also defeated Jessica Hardenne in the semi, wins therefore her 4th FISTF Major.
If the tournament was quality, the important piece of news this week-end was the fact that the event organizer, Patrick Pellerin, announced he would not be back next season: "We played the 20th edition of the tournament in
2007 and I think it's time to stop. Our club is now low in numbers and we think it's time to think about other priorities. Also, the lack of discipline of players when games were announced convinced me it's time to stop."
Elbeuf has been a FISTF Major since 2002 and was probably one of the best events organized on a yearly basis in the history of FISTF.

3. Friendly game
Italy beat Malta in a friendly international last saturday in Elbeuf. The result will not be official in the FISTF archives as the game had not been announced one week in advance as stated int he FISTF handbook. Scores were as follows:
Francesco Mattiangeli (then Massimo Bolognino) - Mark Gauci 4-1 Enrico Guidi - Samuel Bartolo 5-1 Saverio Bari - Massimo Cremona 1-1 Efrem Intra - Hansel Mallia 2-0

4. Open of Rain
The GP for teams and IO for Individuals in Rain (Germany) will take place on August 4 & 5. The Competition Manager is Hans Ruf (mail:
Kari.Hakkarainen@tietoenator.com (mailto:Kari.Hakkarainen@tietoenator.com)) will be the competition manager. The address of the tournament venue is this: Helsingin Rudolf Steiner -koulu (Rudolf Steiner -school of Helsinki) Paraistentie 3 00280 Helsinki

6. Major of Mons
Alld etails about the tournament are available at http://www.ashennuyer.be/site/major/2007/index.html (http://www.ashennuyer.be/site/major/2007/index.html)

10. FISTF statistics
Wolfgang Haas just wanted to let you know that his university is going to make some changes to user accounts and as a result, the FISTF results & stats webpage can now be accessed under a new URL:
http://www.sfu.ca/~haasw/subbuteo/results.html (http://www.sfu.ca/~haasw/subbuteo/results.html)
http://www.sfu.ca/~haasw/subbuteo/stats.html (http://www.sfu.ca/~haasw/subbuteo/stats.html)
http://www.sfu.ca/~haasw/subbuteo/wcstats.html (http://www.sfu.ca/~haasw/subbuteo/wcstats.html)
The old address will simply forward you to the new one, but only until the end of April. He would therefore ask all of you to please update your bookmarks.

11. First South African Open and rankings (by Reza Bodiat) After qualifiers, the South African Open today saw  it's two first official number one ranked players in the adults and junior  sections. The open held at Parc De Graaf saw the top 4 adults  and top 4 children compete in their respective groups.
 In the juniors sections, brothers Taariq and Yasser  Bodiat came up against each other in the finals for the highest ranked South  African juniors. Older brother Taariq was victorious in a two nil win.His first goal was a penalty after some sloppy play by Yasser. The second in a tightly  fought midfield game came again after a mistake. Losing possession just out his  own area,Yasser left a hole in his defence as his older brother kept possession  well before unleasing an unstoppable shot which buried itself to the keepers right. Not much of a contest after that and Taariq held on to claim the crown,  deservedly so too.
 In the adults section, Clifford Graaf (Rangers) who  was previously unbeaten, met arch rival Shaun Morgan(Scottish Vets) in the  final. Graaf no doubt the favourite to get number one ranking started superbly  with his close control and posession play - accuracy was his advantage and  inside the first three minutes lay siege on Morgan's goals and only some heroic goalkeeping kept the score respectable.
Graaf did take the lead, deservedly  so too as a well worked goal supported by fantastic possession play going back  to his own penalty area saw a magical finish.
Graaf played patiently and took  9 perfect flicks to execute an unstoppable finish which he buried with some  accuracy beyond the outstretched arms of the opposition keeper.
The half  belonged to Graaf and he could and should have gone into the break with a much  bigger lead.
The second half saw Morgan come back strongly. Early signs  showed that he had the necessary skill to get back into the game and he did so  with some class.Picking up a ball in midfield, Morgan patiently played a number  of one two's before playing a sublime ball through the opposition defence to set  up a fantastic goal. With the goal in sight, he opted for a pass and when the  ball fell awkwardly, one thought he had missed his chance but a terrific spin  pass inside the shooting area saw a chance created perfectly as he stroked the  ball home leaving Graaf helpless.
 The rest of the game was fairly tight and one  sensed extra time golden goal was going to settle it.
 It took 3 and a half minutes for glory as fantastic  patient  play saw 3 players released into the shooting area, each with a  scoring shot on but further patience and precise flicking made for the perfect  goal. The ball again played invitingly and with some power, a dipping shot to  the right from Morgan gave Graaf no chance as the ball hit the back of the net  and bounced inside the gaol to give Shaun Morgan the coveted title and the honour of becoming South Africa's first official number one ranked  player.
 The open was superbly organised and the momentum is  now on to further grow the South African interest.
 League results, rankings and tables will be  communicated to FISTF.
Future opens will take place on a regional basis and  our hope is to stage the 2010 SUBBUTEO WORLD CUP in conjunction with the FIFA  WORLD CUP in South Africa.
 The game is alive...and flicking ....in the gateway  to Africa...
 Congratulations once again to our two winners,  Shaun Morgan and Taariq Bodiat

12. Results from Finland (by Miku Leppälä) Table Football action in Finland continued at the  second weekend of February in Helsinki when players all around Finland gathered  to play for Finnish ranking points. Eliot Kennedy from Australia joined the  Saturday competition with FISTF rules. Table Football as a competive game is truly raising in Finland  as a delegate from Finland is participating the GP-tournament in Odense,  Danmark at late February and Finnish attendees will probably also  participate the international tournament in London in March. Results:
Saturday 10th Feb - FISTF-rules (Top  8): 1. Jani Mustonen, Varkaus ; 2.
Petri Pekkala, Helsinki ; 3. Kai Grönfors, Helsinki ; 4. Vesa Mattila, Helsinki ; 5. Kari Hakkarainen,  Helsinki ; 6. Miku Leppälä, Laukaa ; 7.
Petri Kokkonen, Helsinki ; 8. Tuomas Kivelä, Järvenpää.

This was the first ranking tournament with Finnish  rules in this Millenium so the ranking list is identical with the tournament  results.

In this week's issue...

1. Athens to host the Europa Cup
FISTF and the an-Hellenic Association of Table Football are proud to announce that the forthcoming Europa Cup for clubs will be held in Athens, Greece. The exact date of the event should be announced soon. A website will also be launched shortly. Contact: Chris Aggelinas at olivier.pere@skynet.be (mailto:olivier.pere@skynet.be)

5. Brussels national Open (by Philippe Hipfinger) Valery Dejardin won against Bessim Golger, the final score was 1-1 after sudden death, and Valery won 3-2 in the shoots. Bessim played 100 metres away from his home and was eager to win, but, Valery proved again he is the best current belgian player! The semi-finalists were Justin Leroy and Vito Di Ruggiero.  62 players took part in this national event which was divided in 6 categories (A, B, C, D, veterans and U12) In the serie D, Brussels based Kyriacos Ktenas from Cyprus was able to collect his 2 first victories in a tournament and reached the semi-finals.
Well, at least the next 2 seasons Brussels will be back in the international calendar as on the 6 and 7 october 2007, we will organize a IO on the hall of honour of King Baudouin Stadium and the year after, we will probably do the same but then we will have a Grand Prix for individuals

6. Carlos is champion
Carlos Flores won the national title in Spain last week-end. The Bologna Tiger defeated teamate Raul benita in the final (2-1). Vicenç Prats and Angel Valverde reached the semis. Juan Carlos Granados defeated Arturo Martinez int he Veterans final while Juan Noguera is the new U19 champion.
Asociacion Murciana managed to take the teams title after they won their five games in a small league of 6 teams.

7. Video report os a subbuteo game in Singapore Watch "Lions Subbuteo Club Trial Video Service" on Google Video at http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid ... pr=goog-sl (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1244851897032475357&pr=goog-sl)
The level of play is quite interesting, even if Singapore is really far away from Europe and North America.
This video proves there is a clear potential for the game in South-East Asia and that the next step now is to organize a first FISTF tournament soon.

8. Milton Keynes Open (by Jeremy Bradley) The new website for the tournament is www.subbuteoplayersforum.co.uk/home.html (http://www.subbuteoplayersforum.co.uk/home.html)
The entries are being corrected tonight by Martin Evans and various parts of the site will be updated shortly, e.g. directions, info about the evening activities ETC.
Currently we have 54 entries in the Open including juniors and 9 in the veterans as well as 9 in the team event. Subject to agreement from the relevant national associations we will also have some international friendlies on Sunday morning. Entry is £10.00 for Open/Veteran entrants, £5.00 for under 19's and £12.00 for teams. Closing date is March 13th.

1. Europa Cup for clubs 2007
The Europa Cup will be played on October 27 and 28 in a sports hall in Athens. More information will be provided soon.

2. FISTF Major of Mons
Gil Delogne (D.E.V.I.L.S. Austria) managed to win the 3rd Major of his career after an impressive competition held in Mons, Belgium. Delogne had already won the tournament 4 times in the past, in particular in 2002 and
2003 when the event had already the Major status. The guy from Brussels beat Vasco Guimaraes 2-1 in the sudden death in the semi-final and Carlos Flores 2-1 in the final. Flores therefore lost his 5th final in a row in a FISTF Major and will still have to wait a bit more for a first victory.
Guimaraes has also impressive stats to show. Mons was the 30th Major in the history of FISTF and it was already the 15th times the Portuguese reached the semis.
In the veterans, Ron Corsten (SMV Delft) beat Phil Redman in the final. The 'young' Dutchman proves with this first title in a Major that the netherlands will have a very strong team at the next World Cup for veterans with Landzaat, Marks (who defeated Stefano De Francesco 3-0 in the barrage round), Stolwijk and Bom.
In the ladies section, Françoise Guyot gave no chance to Jessica Hardenne to take her revenge after the semi-final at the Major of Elbeuf. Guyot proves again that her number 1 spot in the world rankings isn't due to any kind of luck. Audrey Herbaut and Elodie Bertholet (who is 8 months
pregnant!) reached the semis.
In the other categories, Juan Manuel Noguera from Spain beat Daniel Wienbrandt from Germany in the U19 final. This category was very Open with all quater-finals being decided on sudden death or shots. Logan Carette and Ralf Grégoire lost in the semis.
In the U15 category, Simone Palmieri beat his fellow Napoli 2000 teamate Mattia Belottiin sudden death. José Maria Rodriguez and Andrea Manganello lost in the semis.
France also won the U12 tournament. Arnaud Le Teno proved he has much more experience than his opponents as he beat Jémérie Gosset, a newcomer who started playing in october, in the final. Terry San and Rimy Guyot managed to reach the semis of a tournament that attracter 20 young players!
Finally, the teams tournament was dominated by the Eagles Napoli. They beat Perugia in the final while the D.E.V.I.L.S. Austria and Charleroi lost in the semis. Bologna, Milan, AS Hennuyer and Mattersburg lost in the quarter-finals of the event, which was played by 39 teams.
Once again, Mons proved to be the best tournament of the season with a fantastic field of almost 200 players and a very fair spirit all over the week-end.

3. FISTF Awards 2006

4. FISTF international friendlies

Belgium vs Malta ended on 2-2 (with wins of Gil Delogne and Valéry Dejardin for belgium and Massimo Cremona and Marc Gauci for Malta) while Spain and Greece drew 1-1 (with wins of Lazaros Papakonstantinou and Carlos Flores).

5. Challenger and Future of Lisbon II (April) cancelled Luís Filipe Horta, the APS Board President, is sorry to inform that Challenger and Future of Lisbon II (April) were cancelled by the CM Paulo Sena and must be removed from the FISTF Calendar.

7. Northern Ireland: Davy CleggwinsMorton Open (by Eoin Adams) Northern Ireland champion, Davy Clegg, showed his class as he won the latest Open at Morton Community Centre. He beat Stephen Rodgers 3-0 in the final, after eliminating old rival, Kenny Beggs, on shots in the semi, following a 2-2 draw. Surprise package of the day was the other beaten semi-finalist, Peter Morrison, who got through a tough group unbeaten, behind Beggs and ahead of Barry Spence.
Beggs got some consolation by beating Clegg 3-0 in the Veteran Final, following a marathon 5-4 shoot-out against Alistair Morrison in the semi, which required 12 shots from each player before they could eventually be separated.
Andrew Morrison won the Under-19 trophy, which was played as a 3-player round robin. Peter Morrison was 2nd and John Hughes, playing in his first tournament, was 3rd. Barry Spence beat Alistair Morrison 2-1 with a golden goal in the Plate Final.

1. Communication from the Sports Director

a) Requests for international tournaments The sports department of FISTF only answers requests for international tournaments, if they are sent by the national association. Requests from tournament organizers won't be answered any more. As long as the national association doesn't send the requests for their international tournaments, the tournaments are not mentioned in the calender, which could be a problem because of the changes in the international calender for the next season.
The request has to be sent to the FISTF-Sports Director.
heinz.eder@fistf.com (mailto:heinz.eder@fistf.com)

d) Transfers
The transfer rules are clearly written down in the handbook, so the FISTF BoD only answers to requests for transfers which are possible. One more time a short summary of the transfer rules, there won't be any exception.

4. VERY IMPORTANT: ONLY 1 TRANSFER PER SEASON -> means, if the player makes a transfer (club -> club OR club -> unattached) on 1st of september, no second transfer in the same season is possible.
Transfers have to be sent to FISTF Sports Director. heinz.eder@fistf.com (mailto:heinz.eder@fistf.com)

f) Membership form of FISTF membership

Alberto Colli from Italy is very pleased to announce that the new website www.bertu.eu (http://www.bertu.eu) is now on-line in italian & english versions. Soon there will be the German translation.

It is a commercial site, probably the only one with so many hand made teams (about 200 teams).

Alberto wishes visitors to tell him what they think about the website. You can send me your comments at the new email address: http://www.miomovie.it/TableFootball/English/Index.htm (http://www.miomovie.it/TableFootball/English/Index.htm) is now showing some nice links of table football videos. Any contribution is welcome and people can contact the webmaster, Stefano, at ferdy22@gmail.com (mailto:ferdy22@gmail.com) More details coming soon.

11. USA: LMSC to shrink, but concept to grow Holland, MI - The Lake Michigan Subbuteo Circuit announced today it plans on shrinking its geographic footprint to the immediate shoreline of Lake Michigan. The new area will cover West Michigan, NW Indiana and Chicago.
Indianapolis will join Cincinnati and Dayton in a new Ohio Valley circuit which will alternate dates with LMSC. The rotation will be tested in the latter months of the 2006/07 season, and go into full effect in the 2007/08 season. The Ohio Valley circuit will be administered by the ASA's Development Officer Steve Laskey, who now lives in Cincinnati.

1. Grand Prix of the Netherlands
Massimiliano nastasi (Perugia) beat Eric Verhagen (Devils) in the final of last week-end's FISTF Grand prix in Nieuwveen (near Amsterdam). 120 players from 14 countries were taking part and there were taking part and many of the world's top players were present. Kasper Bennett and Wolfgang Leitner reached the semi-finals but Belgium's Bessim Golger took most of the attention when leaving his quarter-final against Bennett. Golger gave also a very bad image of our sport when leaving the final of the team event in the game between Charleroi and the Devils because he didn't accept some decisions of the referee. After 13 minutes, the 4 Charleroi players left the game. Therefore the Devils took the title without even playing the second half of the game...

Dominik Shultz from Germany won the U19 tournament while Ruben Português took the honors in U15 and Martijn Bom beat Erich Hinkelmann on shots int he veterans final. Magali Doumont won the ladies title.

2. Cheap accomodations for the world cup Laurent Garnier asks me to let players know that there will be very cheap accomodations at the "Camping la Bretèche". More datas are available at www.campinglabreteche.com (http://www.campinglabreteche.com) Players can contact the camping at Camping la Bretèche Base de loisirs 85590 LES EPESSES Tél : 02.51.57.33.34   Fax : 02.51.57.41.98 www.campinglabreteche.com (http://www.campinglabreteche.com)

There will be the possibility to stay in huts for 7-9 persons with an amazing low prize of 49 EUROS per hut.

3. World Cup 2007 looking for referees
The world Cup 2007 organisation crew is looking for volunteers to be referees. Interested players can contact Laurent Garnier at chragg@hol.gr (mailto:chragg@hol.gr)

5. A good turnout for Beausoleil
The Grand Prix of Beausoleil will have a very good turnout as mentionned on www.beausoleil-gp.blogspot.com (http://www.beausoleil-gp.blogspot.com)

6. Grand Prix of Vienna

11. Subbuteo in Chile

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0R2LldDN ... ed&search= (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0R2LldDNjpg&mode=related&search=)
Looks as if there is a new association/club/league in Chil:

12. African Table Football Association (by Clifford Graaff) The newly-found South African Table Football Association was formed on 31 March 2007. Vikash Ramnath was elected as Chairman and he duly accepted the post. The first table football club was also formed on the same day, namely the Johannesburg Table Football Club. (Johannesburg is the venue for the World Cup Final 2010). Two Future's have been planned along with the South African Open in November 2007 - the full programme will be conveyed at a later stage.
Suffice to say that all table footie fans in South Africa are thrilled with these latest developments and the sport is firmly entrusted to an extremely dedicated person in Vikash and we are sure that he will serve us with his unmistaken passion and dedication.
A word of thanks must also go to Reza Bodiat for his invaluable input in making the above possible.
Exciting times are on the way for table football in South Africa.

13. Looking for the old FISA results
Does anyone know the scores of the FISA European finals 1996 between Felipe Maia (POR) and Joseph Borg Bonaci (MLT) in Open and between Dionisis Koutis

10. Malta: category champions (by Timothy Spiteri) The Category champions were finalised after the final ranking tournament was held last sunday. The Maltese Champions for the categories and as a result the determining factors for this season's world cup selection are as
follows:
U19: 1. Mauro Camilleri- Siracusa ; 2. Nicholas Sciberras- Hamrun ; 3.
Timothy Spiteri - Hamrun ; 4. Dane Xuereb- Hamrun
U15: 1. Matthew Pace - Hamrun ; 2. Angelo Borg - Hamrun ; 3. Brandon
Farrugia- Hamrun ; 4. Dennis Dalli- Hamrun
U12: 1. Matthew Pace - Hamrun ; 2. Andrew Abela- Valletta ; 3.
TizianaSpiteri - Pembroke  ; 4. Thomas Camilleri- Pembroke
Veterans: 1. Patrick Pace - Hamrun ; 2. NatalinoTanti- Hamrun ; 3. Joseph
ZammitPavia- Valletta ; 4. Stephen Grima– Hamrun To be noted that the Individual Senior Championships are to take place on the 17th June .

11. Malta: U19 teams championship (by Timothy Spiteri) Hamrun TFC won the first official Maltese U19 Team Championships since the late 90s, today (June 13) at Zabbar. The team, which was captained by Timmy Spiteri and also comprised of Adam Gatt, Angelo Borg, Nicholas Sciberras and Dane Xuereb, took the title, winning all 3 of their matches. It was rather disappointing that Valletta SC and Pembroke SC were unable to field teams due to examinations taking place currently and due to the unfavourable day chosen for the championships to take place. To be noted that teams comprised of 5 players and not 4 as is the usual case.

12. Malta: teams championship (by Timothy Spiteri) Hamrun TFC won the National Team Championships for this season beating the other team present, Valletta SC in a two-leg competition. The first match ended in a draw while the second was won by Hamrun TFC. This mean Hamrun will be in Athens next year for the Europa Cup. This will be the first Maltese participation in an Europa Cup since Hamburg 1993 when Floriana TFSC finished in 3rd place. The team will be further reinforced for next season with the signings of Stefan Pace and Ilai Zammit Marmara' who will both return to their beloved Hamrun from Palermo. After beating Perugia, everything is possible now, with an even stronger squad!

1. Grand Prix and Open of Norway
For the 3rd year in a row, Norway held great tournaments in Skien last week-end. Eric Verhagen( world number 1) and Massimo Cremona (world number
2) were the top players taking part but there was a strong field of 15 foreign players, including some Italians as well as players from Germany, England, Finland, Belgium.
In the Grand Prix, Massimo Cremona managed to beat Eric Verhagen in a very close final (5-4) but on the next day, both players had to meet int he quarter-finals and the Dutchman took his revenge. Verhagen finally beat Phil Redman from England 3-1 in the final.

Redman took the veterans titles in the Grand Prix but lost the other veterans final on sunday on shots to Riccardo Schito from Italy. Björn Kegenbein managed to win the 2 titles in the U19 category.

2. FISTF Satellite of Yorkshire
With 3 players in the semi-finals, Scotland dominated last sunday's FISTF Satellite of Yorkshire. The tournament was played by 30 competitors from six countries and finally, Steve Bennett (Tayside) managed to beat Mike Burns (Hot Club) 1-0 in a re-match of the recent final of the UK & Ireland Internationals held in Belfast.

3. FISTF Future of Johannesburg : 24 June 2007 (by Clifford Graaff) On Sunday , 24 June 2007, the first ever FISTF approved tournament in Africa - namely the Future of Johannesburg - was organized by the Johannesburg Table Football Club and held at Mark's Park (one of the oldest Sport's Clubs in Johannesburg). A total of 12 competitors took part. After the group stages the top two players from each of the four groups advanced to the quarter finals.
The results of  the quarter finals were as follows :
- Clifford Graaff (Western Eagles) beat Harold Silber (Amakhosi United) 5 -
1
- Sean Morgan (Scottish Legends) beat Richard Graaff (Guerrero's) 2 - 0
- Shane Graaff (Millwall Midgets) beat Reza Bodiat (Robertsham Callies) 2 - 0
- Tariq Bodiat (Joburg All Stars) beat Robyn Morgan (Itallian Stallions) 4
- 0 (A special word of congratulations to Robyn who is the highest ranked Ladies player of the tournament).
In the semi-finals Sean Morgan defeated Shane Graaff ,in what was described as the 'Match of the Day', by one goal to nil - with the winner being scored in the last minute.
In the other semi-final the great run by junior Tariq Bodiat came to an end when he lost to Clifford Graaff by 2 goals to 5.
In the curtain raiser to the final Shane Graaff (Millwall Midgets) defeated junior Tariq Bodiat (Joburg All Stars) by 4 goals to nil to capture third place. A special mention must however go to Tariq Bodiat for his great performance in the tournament and his overall 4 position finish and his status as the top ranked junior of the competition.
In the final the top two seeded players namely Clifford Graaff (Western
Eagles) and Sean Morgan (Scottish Legends) played a tense game whereby Clifford Graaff made more use of his opportunities in the first half to lead by 1 goal to nil. The second half was more of the same ,however crucial errors by Sean Morgan led to Clifford Graaff scoring three more goals (the last goal being scored with 2 seconds left on the clock) to annex the first Future of Johannesburg by 4 goals to nil. The score line however was not a true reflection of the extremely tight contest that showcased the GRAND FINALE of the first of many Table Football tournaments (approved by FISTF) in South Africa.
By all accounts ,everybody enjoyed themselves at a venue that proved to be extremely popular and hopefully will be used as the Headquarters of the South African Table Football Association (SATFA) in the future.

4. Yorkshire Phoenix are english champions The Yorkshire Phoenix managed to win last week's national title for teams.
The Yaorkshire A team beat the Yorkshire B team int he final while Yorkshire C, Cheshire Corinthians, TSPA Whitestar and Breretown TFC were the other teams taking part. Yorkshire will be taking part to the forthcoming Europa Cup in Athens in october.

11. News from Malaysia (from Edwin wong) After several stalled attempts to secure a suitable venues to showcase our Table Soccer revival, we finally landed prime spot in the non-electronic games section at last weekend's Asia Game Zone 2007, the biggest electronic game convention in the country!

Our single demo table was full throughout the 3 days, as it provided a highly visual change from the popular FIFA computer/console game. We met many fans who used to play actively 20-30 years ago who were absolutely shocked to see the game again! Nostalgia ran high as many fans recognized the 20+ year old France & West Germany teams we used. It was also a thrill for them to see how the figures and pitch had evolved over time, as we also showcase the new flatter based teams and astro pitch.

However, newbies seeing this game for the first time, and oldies alike, waited anxiously for the highlight of the convention - a replay of last season's EPL (English premier League) match between Manchester United and West Ham United. In the end, it was 2-1 to West Ham, once again earning their right to remain in the EPL next season!

Following the keen interest, we are now preparing to kick-off of the inaugural league and cup, which will commence from 21 July 2007.
Registration for the 8 player league, which will run for 7 weeks (every
Saturday) opened on Monday this week, and we already have 6 registrations.
We expect to fill the last 2 slots by this weekend. The 16 player knock-out cup will run from 28 July 2007, and registration for the 8 "non-league"
places will open on 21 July 2007.

We hope that this will be the first step towards FISTF points tournaments.

12. Subbuteo in Toy Museum (by Filip Van Hulle) when visiting Belgium, during your holidays or when travelling to participate in a FISTF tournament, spend time to visit the Toy Museum in Mechelen, half way between Brussels and Antwerp.  Between Saturday 30th June and end January '08 the Mechelen Toy Museum together with the Subbuteo Club Flanders is organizing an exhibition around Subbuteo, called '60 jaar voetbalgekte' which one could translate into '60 years soccer madness'.

The exhibition shows the history of soccer and table top soccer games in two displays but has 10 displays on subbuteo.  The 10 displays shows the history and development of the game from flats over heavy and light weights to sports and related figures.  Next you will find items which relate to the founding and successes of the Belgian Federation and three displays which represent the following historical games: England - W-Germany in 1966, Belgium - USSR in 1986 and Racing Mechelen - KV Mechelen in the Belgian third division in 2005 .... yes indeed, this is the game which featured the most famous streaker, and guess what we have in the display!

But there is more, one large display with a full original subbuteo stadium, featuring Manchester Utd and Chelsea FC in the most recent cup final.  To make the game more visual to the visitors, there will be video's showing how to play and each month the Subbuteo Club Flanders will organize small tournaments in the museum to demonstrate the game, scheduled dates are saturday 30th June and saturday 4th August.

12. Milton Keynes FISTF IO (by Jeremy Bradley -
www.stantonbury.org (http://www.stantonbury.org)) on Saturday 29th March 2008
(Individual) and Sunday 30th March 2008 (Team), flick - off 09:30 sharp both days. The new venue is bigger and better than the 2007 event with the hall big enough for 7 badminton courts. There is catering on site including a licenced bar and a foyer for viewing the action from above! Steve Hawkins and myself will run the tournament using the same tried and teated format as this year with groups of at least 4 players in all categories and properly organised competitions for those players who don't qualify for the knock out stages of the Open/Vet tournaments. There will be a visible clock this year and the organisors will have full use of a microphone, thus ensuring improved communication. On the Sunday we will be employing stricter guidelines regarding preparation time between matches to ensure a smoother flowing event! Once again we are very lucky to be using Nicky Chappell's excellent San Siro pitches. The cost of the event will be £8.00 Open/Vets/Womens and £4.00 for Under 19/15/12's. £12.00 for team entries.
Closing date will be Tuesday 25th March 2008. For all enquries please contact either myself at stephen.hawkins@uk.gm.com (mailto:stephen.hawkins@uk.gm.com) For all coach enquries I recommend www.nationalexpress.com (http://www.nationalexpress.com) and for all rail enquries www.nationalrail.co.uk (http://www.nationalrail.co.uk) Milton Keynes is easily accessible by road and is at Junction 14 of the M1.

On Saturday July 28 in what was perceived to be the most competitive tournament in California this century Wayne Smith won his seventh ASA Open.  Players came from as far as Laguna Niguel, the San Fernando Valley, Simi Valley and Thousand Oaks to participate in the 'Welcome to LA Posh Spice Open'.  With 60 goals being scored in 20 games there was plenty of action for the spectators to enjoy.  Smith defeated Steve Tucker in the final, and John Carroll beat Kevin Nieman in the Third Place game.  Simon Hutchinson beat John Saucedo, who was making his debut in an Open, in the 'Mary Jane' final.

1. FISTF Handbook for the season 2007-2008 I'm very happy to announce that the new FISTF handbook for the season
2007-2008 is now available.
You can download it directly from www.fistf.eu (http://www.fistf.eu) All changes for this season are written in red. Associations officials and tournaments organizers should read the handbook carefully.

Here are some of the main changes.
- FISTF is trying to motivate "partner nations" to become "member nations".
Therefore member nations will have more rights than partner nations in the
future:
a) from this season member nations will have the right to host 3 Satellites, 3 Challengers and 3 Futures;
b) from the season 2008-2009 only member nations will have the right to host a Grand Prix;
- from the season 2008-2009 only the nations who organize a national championship will have the right to host a Grand Prix;
- from this season every 3rd week-end of the month (from september to june) will be only for national competitions (as well as Satellite, Challengers and Futures). The only exception is for the Open of Napoli in september as the organizers had booked the hall before the new rule was announced.
- there are more rules about how to run tournaments and in particular a new chapters with the "duties of the organizers" has been added.
- the are added rules about the status of the players from Monaco.

We at FISTF are open to receive your feedback.

4. FISTF Open of Richland, WA (USA)
Lenny Foster from Boise, Idaho won the 1st edition of the desert Cup held in Richland, WA. The tournament was a FISTF Open, the first FISTF tournament ever held in the State of Washington. 11 players were competing.
Eddy Mc Lane lost to Foster in the final while AJ de Leon and host player Todd Kleppin reached the semi-finals.

5. FISTF Future of brussels (by Philippe Hipfinger) The first FISTF future of Brussels SC has been a big success! If finally no foreign player showed up, 22 players competed in 2 main categories, Open with 14 players and U15 with 8 players. Then in the afternoon, there was a second tournament for those who could play with 10 U19 players and 7 veterans !
I have to say that 3 italians players, ranked between the 300 and 400 spot in the rankings, were thinking about coming by plane but finally cancelled.  So it proves that this type of event might have a brillant future in the FISTF calender !
In the Open category, the 2 favourites of the day reached the final, and Olivier Delogne who has already signed for a few weeks to play for Brussels SC next season beat Damien Denooz from SC Stembert, 2-1 after the sudden death ! Old Gil brother will certainly help the current team from Brussels SC to reach higher goals next season !
In the veteran category, Pol Serwy from Jambes SC, a top 10 player in Belgium in the eighties, defeated in the final the local player Patrick Peltier who will represent Belgium at the World Cup in Les Herbiers. Pol Serwy had a great run with also a spot in the semi-finals in Open !
In the U19, Jérémie Gosset from ASH caused an upset by beating in the quarter finals the heavy favourite from Stembert Kevin Beckers, and went on by winning the trophy by beating his older teammate Kevin Moine later in the final ! Olivier Père who came just to drive the kids from his club can be very satisfied about this performance ! And to finish, another surprise was the result of the final in the U15 which saw the 13 old girl from Brussels SC Océan Van Melkebeke beating Jérémie Gosset in the final.
In this final Jérémie Gosset came back from 3-1 down to 3-3 in the last minutes of the match, but the young Océane showed she had nerves and finally won her first big victory !

1. Let's support Paul Eyes
The US Subbuteo family had some tough news this week when we heard that one of our favorite guys, Pay Eyes, has been diagnosed with cancer. We are not sure the details but we want to come together to offer our help and support. One thing I thought every Subbuteo player in the world could do is as follows: what Gregg Deinhart suggests is that everyone mail Paul 1 Subbuteo figure and base of your choice. It can be a figure of significance or just some extra guy. What I envision is that as they arrive, Paul can line them up on a pitch or table somewhere and he will know that we are standing shoulder to shoulder with him through this. This is something simple that everyone can do. It would be great if we could cover his pitch with "supporter figures" from around the world.

I'm sending off my figure (from my 1st National Championship) to Paul with a letter of support today. I'll put my name on the base so he knows it is from me and hopefully I'll be joined by hundreds more. If you support this, do it ASAP.  It will take 5 minutes.

His address is:
Paul Eyes
5471 Watercress Place
Columbia
Maryland 21045
USA

Also, make sure everyone signs his "care page" at this link:

2. World Cup
Registrations are normally over now but we decided to give an extra deadline till august 20th for the late registrations as we haven't heard from some countries.
Laurent Garnier (heinz@fistf.com (mailto:heinz@fistf.com)

3. Major of Mattersburg
Wolfgang Leitner won the FISTF Major of Mattersburg last week-end after he beat Eric verhagen 7-1 in the final. Simone Bertelli and Massimo Bolognino lost in the semi-finals. Leitner is the first Austrian to win a Major after
15 titles for Italians, 9 for Belgium and 7 for Portugal. Giacomo Monica managed to win his 2nd Major of the season in the Veterans while Ruben Portugês (U15), Thomas Karnthaler (U19) and Jelena Radic (Ladies) won the other individual titles. The Eagles Napoli won their 16th title in a Major, the 3rd this season. The Italians beat the host team of Matterburg in the final.

4. Satellite of Singapore
The first ever tournament in Asia was held last week-end in Sngapore. 9 players were competiting and Christopher Soh became the first asian tournament winner after beating Erfandy Kusnadi in the final (3-2).
The report of the Satellite is already on the Singapore website (www.freewebs.com/lionssc (http://www.freewebs.com/lionssc)). The pictures and videos will be put up very soon too!

5.Satellite of Vancouver
The organizer is building a new website for the Vancouver Satellite Tournament on 19 August, 2007. The website is http://vancouversatellite.googlepages.com/ (http://vancouversatellite.googlepages.com/)

6. Transfer news
- Ben Staples move from Yorkshire to Solway Seagulls

7. The Netherlands: promotion of the game (by Henk Landzaat) On saturday 10 August the USC Utrecht was present at the "Open Dag" of FC Utrecht in the Galgenwaard Stadion. There were 13.500 visitors and we have had a lot of attention from the crowd. Old-USC-member John van Loen, now assistant-coach of Willem van Hanegem, take his time to play against our clubmembers Marko Karhunen and Paolo Fungardi. For the USC Utrecht this was a great possibility to promote Subbuteo to people who are interested in football. Please see pictures on www.uscutrecht.nl (http://www.uscutrecht.nl)

8. USA: Maricopa Cup (by Simon Hutchinson) On Sunday August 12 Wayne Smith's run of 26 consecutive wins in this year's Maricopa Cup came to an end when he was held to a goalless draw by Simon Hutchinson.  This is the first time he has failed to beat Hutchinson in 50 games.  "Simon's defense was stifling," was Smith's comment after the game.  Despite this set back he still finished in first place with wins over Kevin Nieman and Brian Hook. Hutchinson finished in second place following a draw with Nieman, their 11th in 23 games, and victory over Hook. Nieman's win over Hook gave him third place.  This was Hook's first time competing in the Maricopa Cup.  And as the tournament progressed his opponents noted that his flicking and perception of the game improved. The results, photographs, and a more detail report for the Maricopa Cup seventh round can be seen here:

9. USA: another baby in the FISTF family Gregg Deinhart's second child Braden Daniel Deinhart was born August 12.
Mom, baby, and big brother Nicholas are doing great! Coongratulations to Gregg and his family.

10. USA: SCSC Buhe tournament (by Simon Hutchinson) There was plenty of action in the Southern California Subbuteo Club's Buhe tournament on Saturday 18th August. Wayne Smith proved, yet again, that he is the best player in California winning the tournament with four wins in as many games. The battle for second place saw some of the most intense games between Simon Hutchinson, Kevin Nieman and Steve Tucker.  Winning goals were scored in the closing minutes or seconds of games. It was also memorable for newcomer Brian Hook, who scored his first goal in a tournament.
A detailed report, scores, and photographs can be found at

11. Hansel Mallia
Looks like someone managed to use Hansel Mallia's mailbox and sent a message to all his contacts saying Hansel is now in Africa carrying on a study about racism (!!!). Hansel had therefore to make a new e-mail address, which is now danbaquer@hotmail.com (mailto:danbaquer@hotmail.com)

1. About the World Cup
The World Cup will take place this week-end in Les Herbiers. Due to a lot of drop-outs, in particular in the english, italian and greek teams, the programme of the week-end has slightly been changed. FISTF had suggested to have a veterans tournament with 40 players (8 groups of 5), which Laurent Garnier, host organizer, refused. Therefore the tournament will be played by 48 players, including some extra wild-cards as Nicky Chappell (ENG) and Franz Hipfinger (EBL).

* For the players coming by plane to the Nantes airport, there will be a free shuttle to Les Herbiers on friday at 7.30 PM. Interested players must confirm they want to use the shuttle by sending an e-mail at www.subbuteonews.com (http://www.subbuteonews.com) (by Christos Archimandritis) I have good news for good players. I have made an advanced searcing filter at SubbuteoNews e-magazine Calendar.

You can filter the FISTF "Tour" by playing level, the "Hosting" of tournament by region or country; and NOW! you can combine the "LOCAL"
competitions of an Association, like Belgium etc (but only for national opens -- individual or teams). The players who played in foreign club, can also combine the "FOREIGN" club's competitions of another Association, like Italy etc. Enjoy it!

3. Transfer news
Ruben Português from Portugal will play for TFC Mattersburg next season.

4. New club in Scotland

The FISTF World Cup took place last week-end in Les Herbiers with players coming from 14 countries. Daniele Bertelli of Italy confirmed he's a growing star in the FISTF family as he managed to win the open title after he beat the surprising finalist from England, Kasper Bennett. Last year's champion Efrem Intra and Christos Rikos of Greece reached the semis. In the other categories, Renzo Frignani of Italy won the veterans title after he beat Erich Hinkelmann in the final while Stefano Buono beat Arnaud Nullens in a remake of last year's U19 final.

Ruben Português of Portugal beat Bjorn Kegenbein in the U15 section while François Guyot beat Jessica Hardenne on shots in the ladies final.

Finally, Matthew Pace of Malta won the unofficial U12 title after he beat Mitchell Timmers (the Netherlands) in the final of a tournament played by
24 kids.

Here are the results of the teams final.
Open: Italy beat malta

1. New at http://www.fistf.eu/ (http://www.fistf.eu/) (by Christos Archimandritis) NOW! you can find at FISTF Sports Data Center (http://www.fistf.eu/ (http://www.fistf.eu/)) the FISTF's official News and Announcements...

You can also find there (also on www.subbuteonews.com (http://www.subbuteonews.com)) the final archives file of the season 2006-07 and the new archives file with the history of the world Cup.

2. FISTF Tour 2007-2008 - Canadian GP & Open The season started last week-end with the G rand prix and the Open of Canada in Windsor, Ontaio. Unfortunately only 8 players competed in each tournament but the competition was very interesting with many close games and different winners. Zach Walker (USA) took the Grand prix on saturday after he beat Jesper Staal Nielsen (Denmark) in the final (4-2) while Jesper took his revenge on sunday to win the Open against Zach (4-1). All players recommended the tournament for next year as there was a great atmosphere with great food and some players caught a Detroit Tigers game, which was great fun.

3. Grand Prix of Berlin
The tournament website is now at

5. America Cup
The announcement/logo/website of the America Cup can be found now at http://www.freewebs.com/ferdy22/index.htm (http://www.freewebs.com/ferdy22/index.htm)

6. News from Southern California (by Simon Hutchinson) Wayne Smith's dominance of the Maricopa Cup continued on Sunday September 9 as he won all of the games he played and conceded only three goals.  With eight rounds played, and only three rounds remaining, his 23 point lead looks unassailable.  In the Newcomers Cup Dominic Hutchinson's two wins puts him into a 10 point lead over the other players who started playing the game this year.
The SCSC regulars were joined by Edward Nathan, who had not played for several years.  He went onto to prove that you can still win games using the Subbuteo lightweight bases, as he won three and drew one of his six games.
Dominic Hutchinson pulled off one of the surprises of the day.  It was not that he beat Adam Carlson, the surprise was that he scored five goals, a new personal best for him.
All the results, tables and photographs can be found at

5. Cardiff Grand Prix
The tournament website address
http://www.subbuteoplayersforum.co.uk/home.html (http://www.subbuteoplayersforum.co.uk/home.html) for the Cardiff GP Jeremy Bradley has booked a table in the Hard Rock Cafe in Cardiff City Centre for the Saturday night. Anyone interested in going please contact Jeremy at thomalf.roucas@wanadoo.fr (mailto:thomalf.roucas@wanadoo.fr)

7. Re-birth for table football in Hong Kong The subbuteo community in Hong Kong is happy to get the support of a new player. Antonio Carabillo, an italian born, is ready to promote the game in Hong Kong and to develop the local scene on the asian map. Any person interestd to join Antonio can drop him a line at mark.meihuizen@subbuteo.ca (mailto:mark.meihuizen@subbuteo.ca)) has recently been appointed as the new CSTSA President. His first objectives are to work on establishing a Board of Directors, get the calendar of events for the 2007/2008 season sorted out, update our website and to get our various clubs communicating.
The CSTFA will be holding a Canadian National Championship in July of 2008, this is also a big step in getting things going in Canada.

Mark has written this official press release (attached) for distribution throughout the CSTSA, ASA and FISTF, just to make people aware of the recent changes:

A NEW LOOK FOR CSTSA
The Canadian Subbuteo Table Soccer Association (CSTSA) has recently experienced the resignation of Chris Buttigieg as head of the Association.
On behalf of all Canadian Table Soccer players, past, present and future, I would like to wish Chris all the best and say "Thank You" for his dedicated service over the years. I have stepped forward as President of the CSTSA in hopes of organizing, promoting and expanding Table Soccer in Canada.

A few initiatives I have started working on include, establishing a Board of Directors, introducing a Canadian Ranking system, holding a Canadian National Championship and distributing FISTF tournaments in hopes of filling the calendar of events for the 2007/2008 season.

I am virtually unknown on the Table Soccer circuit, however I was introduced to Subbuteo as a child while on a vacation in the UK. I only recently became involved in playing organized Table Soccer and I'm eager to better the game across this country. I made my debut at the Windsor Grand Prix and I/O this month (Sep'07), where I learned many new lessons on playing and realized I have a long way to go. My goal is not only to see Canadians compete at the International level in the World Cup, but to one day compete there myself.

Building the CSTSA into a competitive organization will be a long, slow process. However, rest assured the process has started. In time, the website will be up and running with all the current bylaws, rankings and events list. As well, the website forum will hopefully be a viable source of communication for everybody.

4. Grand Prix of Rochefort
The tournament website is updated with all details at www.jscrochefort.be (http://www.jscrochefort.be)

5. News from Malaysia (by Edwin Wong)
FISTF-Malaysia was featured in a 8-minute segment on ESPN's "Football Crazy" on their latest Saturday show from 10am-12noon. Apart from introducing the game, ESPN announced the forthcoming EPLFC (English Premier League Fan Club) Table Soccer League, where all official EPL fan clubs in Malaysia will be competing for the championship and cup titles. Each fan club will be fielding a team of 6 players and the final score will be the number of won matches. Matches will be played following the actual league fixtures, including both home and away venues.

6. The retirement of the TV Bahnwiese Mödling (by Thomas Bergholz) It is the 2nd of Sept.2007 and after 23 years it is really hard but one of the oldest clubs of Austria the TV Bahnwiese Mödling have to say "GOODBYE"
to the Subbuteoworld, perhaps this will only a break for few years perhaps forever.
In Summer 1984 we were a big group of friends, we founded the TV Bahnwiese Mödling with full energy and enthusiasm and a tremendous help of one of the best players of Austria "Horst Deimel".
We haven't won many tournaments, one of the greatest moments of club-history were the win of Austrian-championship for teams 1998. We were a club with many tradition, we have played I think 15 straight European Cups for teams, not many clubs have done this. The results were not so good but our philosophy called "we love subbuteo from our heart".
A lot of Mödling players have made so many great results on the ETF- and FISTF-Tour like David Busch, Christian Blümel, Manfred Pawlica, Erich Hinkelmann, Michael Strachovsky and me.
Now our club had only a handful players and the most of us are subbuteo-tired.
It is not the Subbuteo we know from the start and lot of changes were done, not only the rules, but one of reason for me to play subbuteo is the FUN and the last years I thought this not the most important thing for a lot of players of the tour. What is not good for subbuteo? I think to put money for tournaments it is OK, but to pay for players is the wrong way.
Helmut Pichler and I will play the next season for the rising club of Wr.
Neustadt and perhaps we will see us again.
I will say in the name of the TVBM "Thank you" to the whole Subbuteoworld for the outstanding tournaments and games and I hope some of your do not forget the little club of Mödling.
I wish you and your families all the best on your sports- and private ways.
Your Thomas Busch, President of the TVBM

1. Important communication from the FISTF sports department (by Heinz Eder)

World Cup:
The national association has to request the World Cup for their country.
After making a decision on where to hold the World Cup, FISTF BoD will confirm which country has been successful.
After the confirmation arrives with the successful national association, the association has to nominate a competition manager. The Sports Director of FISTF is the competition manager of the FISTF side at the World Cup. If he isn't able to attend, the FISTF-President has to choose another competition manager of the FISTF BoD.
The Head Referee has to be the Sports Director of FISTF, but if he isn't able to attend, the FISTF-President has to nominate another BoD member. In special cases the FISTF-President can also agree that the competition manager only can nominate a Head Referee, but only with the agreement of the FISTF President.
The FISTF-Sports Department decides about the number of starters in each category and about the system the tournament will be organized on. If the organizer wishes, the Sports Department can also support with schedules.
The organizer has to take responsibility about the location, the venue, the organization of tables, the draw and the prize giving ceremony. The draw and the prize-giving ceremonies can only be done with a FISTF-official, unless the FISTF-President gives his personal agreement to do these things without any FISTF-official.

Europa Cup for Clubs:
The national association has to request the Europa Cup for clubs for their country. After making a decision on where to hold the Europa Cup, FISTF BoD will confirm which country has been successful.

Major Tournament:
A Major tournament can be requested by anybody, who thinks they are able to organize a very good and big tournament.
FISTF BoD decides about the request – in the case of Major tournaments, there are some key things which will be considered by the FISTF BoD:

1. does the competition manager have experience in organizing big international tournaments 2. are Grand Prixs and International Opens organized in the country 3. does the competition manager follow FISTF regulations (in case of experience with organizing other FISTF-events) 4. is there enough material (tables and so on) available 5. there is prize money to pay at Major tournaments


2. FISTF Open of Brussels
Over 100 players and 20 teams competed in last week-end's FISTF Open of Brussels. The tournament was held at the King Baudouin Stadium and attracted entrants from ten countries and 23 different clubs. The team event was very attractive as groups of five were organized, which proved to be a very good idea as all teams played at least 4 games. In the final, San Siro Worthing took the title after a close win over AS Hennuyer (2-0).

In the individual tournament, many surprises occured int he previous round.
BessiM Golger beat Kasper Bennett in the group stages but both players met again in the final and the Englishman took a revenge to win his first international trophy of the season. Vito Di Ruggiero and Valéry Dejardin, who had met in group stage, reached the semi-finals.

There were very few surprises in the other categories and Jérôme Herbecq (U19), Mitchell Timmers (U15), Martijn Bom (Veterans), Laura Beckers
(Ladies) and Kenny De Schuyteneer (U12) took the trophies.

3. Satellite of Hungtingdon
Victor Jones (TSPA) managed to take the first FISTF title of his career after he beat Paul Lawrenson in a very close final in Hungtingdon last week-end. Jones had previously reached the semi-finals of FISTF Satellites in the past but he had never managed to qualify for a final. 14 players were competing. Rob O'Hare and Adrian Curtis reached the semi-finals.

4. More tournaments in the FISTF Tour
The following tournaments have just been added to the FISTF Tour 2007-2008.

6. Changes in Canada (by Mark Meihuizen) The CSTFA announces that the new name of the association is now "Canadian Sports Table Football Association". The change came about because the CSTFA Board felt it was important to distance themselves from the trademark Subbuteo.  Also, it is in line with FISTF and the International community.  Lastly, there is much confusion with the term Table Soccer in Canada as Foosball has already claimed that title.
To go with the new name, we've had a new logo (with thanks to Jeff Drake for pulling it all together).  And finally, a new website and desperately need discussion forum has been launched as well.
Also, the new CSTFA website is now at www.canadiansubbuteo.ca (http://www.canadiansubbuteo.ca) Finally, Mark Meihuizen should be contacted at http://socalsubbuteo.googlepages.com (http://socalsubbuteo.googlepages.com)

8. USA: CALIFORNIA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP (by Simon Hutchinson) Sunday October 14, is the deadline to register for the first ever California State Championship.

1. Europa Cup 2007: Pisa are the champions (By Heinz Eder) After last year's italian final in Lisbon between Napoli and Perugia, only one team from Italy managed to reach the final, but the winner is still from Italy, after BLACK & BLUE Pisa won a close match against TFC MATTERSBURG.
After the groups were finished without any big surprises (all the big clubs went through the groups to the round of the last 16), in the first knockout stage already the first surprises happened. Stella Artois Milano managed to beat last year's finalist Perugia and San Siro had a close match against austrian team from Royal 78 Kaisermühlen, which they won in the end on goal difference.
There were also some other close games in that round, like Hennuyer against Chaleroi or Stembert against Roligans, both decided in sudden death, first for Hennuyer, second for Roligans.
In the quarterfinal the next surprise happened, because the cupholder said good bye after a tie against San Siro Worthing Fivestar, but again after the round of last 16 the goal difference was better for San Siro. To show how close this tournament was in this quarter final 3 out of 4 matches were only decided on goal difference. Mattersburg won against Falcons from Greece, Stella Artois Milano beat Hennuyer on goal difference too.
In half final San Siro had to play against Pisa and Mattersburg had to beat Stella Artois Milano to reach the final. In the end Pisa could manage it to win clearly against San Siro and Mattersburg won again on goal difference.
The final was very close too, but in the end Pisa managed it to win this game and take to trophy to Italy again.
Generally it was a good Europa Cup, the organization was good and the weather in Athens also was very nice with about 20°.

2. Europa Cup 2007 (by Chris Aggelinas)
The second more important tournament of the season (the first one is always the WC) the Europa cup for clubs, was played the weekend 27-28 of October in Athens.
24 teams from 11 counties participated to the 15th edition of the EC and the big winner were the Italians of Black and Blue Pisa. The Bertellis and Pochesci brothers alongside Stefano Capossela lift the trophy to the Athenaeum sky. They had a tremendous weekend as they won all their 9 games to their way to heaven. In the final they beat the Austrians of Mattesburg in a game that a single goal could turned everything up side down.
San Siro and Stella Artois Milano reached the semifinals. The final standing is the following:
      1.    Black & Blue Granduc. Pisa    ITA

Many thanks to all these people that they helped in order to succeed this result.

3. Europa Cup 2008
Next year's Europa cup will be held in England and the tournament website is already available at http://www.fistf.eu/europacup2008/ (http://www.fistf.eu/europacup2008/)

4. A big agenda for this week-end
This week-end not less than five tournaments are going to take place. There will be a great turnout as always in Dumfries for the Open of Scotland but the other events will be played in some exotic countries.
The Open of Buenos Aires will be played for the first time by representatives from three local clubs. The guys from Buenos Aires, Mar del Plata and Rosario will struggle to beat top favorite Philippe Hipfinger from Belgium.
The Challenger in Johannesburg will be the second tournament ever organized in South Africa while the Future and Challenger in Frameries (Belgium) will be played by a big majority of young players. Good luck to all.

1. Open of Dumfries
33 players competed in last week's FISTF Open of Dumfries (Scotland). The San Siro guys dominated the competition as they won the team event on saturday after they beat EPL in the final (3-1) while Chris Thomas beat Eric Verhagen on sunday in the Open final. Phil Redman (veterans) and Susan Wright (ladies) took the honors in the other categories.

2. Open of Buenos Aires (by Philippe Hipfinger) "El segundo Abierto de Argentina" was played on Saturday 3 November in Buenos Aires. Philippe Hipfinger from Brussels SC travelled again to the most European city of South America to defend and keep his title. This time, he beat Fernando Soneira in the final, after having beaten him in the groups and in the semi-final last year. 10 players took part in the event as last year, but this time for 3 different clubs, as there are now growing activities in Mar del Plata and Rosario. It is nice to see some development here in Argentina and if some people did not have to work or had personal problems, we could have had between 16 to 20 players taking part in the event.

3. Future of Frameries
Only 19 players attended the first FISTF Future tournament of the season.
There was no surprise for the decision of the winner as Philippe Mairesse, a former number 1, took the open title after he beat Laurent Spiroux in the final. Jérémie Gosset (U19), Jérôme Vandevenne (U15), Patrick Peltier
(veterans) and Matthias Mastroianni (U12) took the other titles.

4. Challenger of Frameries
Another nice tournament and a first victory in the Open category for Kevin Dröhsler (Templeuve United). Kevin, who was still a U19 player last season, beat Michaël Dupret (Tournai) in the final (5-4) while Jérôme Heyvaert and Ludovic Migeot, both from Charleroi), lost in the semis. Jérémie Gosset (U19), Yvan Pichuèque (U15) and Laurent Spiroux (Veterans) won the other titles.

5. Challenger of Johannesburg (by Clifford Graaff) Once again a highly successful and enjoyable Table Football Tournament namely : Johannesburg Challenger was held last Sunday (4 November 2007) at Marks Park just outside the Johannesburg central business district.
The tournament showcased the skills and talents of the South African players and the final proved to be a perfect advert for the growing game of table football in this wonderful country which recently celebrated the crowning glory of the mighty Springboks in the Rugby World Cup Final.
Clifford Graaff made the most of his opportunities and edged out his arch rival, Sean Morgan, by a single goal in a seven goal thriller.
The game started off at a sedate pace whereby both players were careful not to make any mistakes. After the initial slow start the game exploded into action when Clifford capitalized on a mistake by Sean and after a series of neat passes the first goal  was scored which proved to be a catalyst for what has been described as one of the most competitive and exciting games of the season.
 Referee Reza Bodiat had to be up with play at all times as the tempo and intensity of the game was something new, unique and refreshing to the fledgling SATFA.
This early setback spurred Sean into action and he took the initiative and gained complete control of the first half and scored two goals without reply – the second coming from a defense splitting pass and perfectly chipping the goalkeeper from just inside the shooting area.
Clifford started the second half in a determined fashion and equalized with a classy shot from an acute angle. Sean counteracted immediately and took the lead once again with some immaculate ball control building up from the halfway line. Clifford responded well and in a tense final five minutes he equalized from a deflected free-kick just outside Sean's penalty area. With nothing separating the two players Clifford's nerve held and with some tight passing from midfield he managed to slot the winner with two minutes remaining.
Sean then through everything at his opponent, and in the final moments should've equalized on two occasions. However some great defending and a rather fortunate deflection from the resultant corner, saw a great shot from Sean bounce over the goals and into safety and thus ending a truly epic encounter and handing Clifford his second FISTF title of 2007.
Both players and officials conceded that the result could've gone either way as there was very little to separate the two finalists.
Both players are extremely keen to test their game against the FISTF heavyweights and hopefully this will present itself in the near future.

6. World Cup 2009
FISTF is very happy to confirm that the FISTF World Cup 2009 will be held in the Netherlands. Robbert Thoen and Marco de Bruin will be the main organizers for what is expected to be an excellent tournament. The date and the venue of the world cup will be announced as soon as possible.

7. Europa Cup 2008
The FISTF Europa Cup for clubs will be held in Oldham, England in the last week-end of october (october 25-26, 2008).
The contact person for the tournament is Alan Collins (http://www.manchestergp.tfhost.com (http://www.manchestergp.tfhost.com)

9. An english player in Singapore
Dave Butler from England has just updated his website. Following his tour of South America in 2005 he has just come back from Singapore, where he met up with Christopher Soh. As in South America, he and his lovely wife Anthea were incredibly hospitable and friendly with Dave. Their match was decided by the final flick of the game! There are reports on the club's and Christopher's club's websites:

12. Italy: Open of Bergamo (by Riccardo Schito) The last week (3 & 4 November), there was a national tournament in Bergamo.
It was the 10th edition of the tournament called "city of Bergamo." Nine teams on Saturday gave birth to an intense tournament and the final has been won by the Stella Artois against the Warriors Torino. Sunday 50 players took part and Stefano De Francesco (Perugia ACN) won the final against Efrem Intra (Stella Artois). Riccardo Schito (A. C. S. Bergamo) beat Massimo Conti (Reggiana) in the veterans final while Antonio De Francesco (ACS Perugia) took the U12 title and Valentina Bartolini (ACS
Perugia) won the ladies section.

13. USA: Maricopa Cup - Round 10 (by Kevin Nieman) On Sunday, November 4, 2007, Wayne Smith of Northridge, California scored four wins, one draw, and no losses in Round 10 of the "Maricopa Cup"
competition to solidify his dominance of the Southern California Subbuteo Club. Wearing his new, purple Osnabrück kit to match his newly-painted, purple-clad figures, Wayne was so dominant that he scored nearly double the goals that were scored by all other competitors combined. Simon Hutchinson of Simi Valley, California was the only SCSC player to face Wayne and come away with a draw. Also, Simon's son, Dominic, held the distinction of being the only player in Round 10 to actually score against Wayne. Finally, Round 10 served as a milestone for our own Kevin Nieman of Newbury Park, California as this day featured his 150th match with the SCSC. A full match report and photographs can be found on the SCSC's website at http://socalsubbuteo.googlepages.com (http://socalsubbuteo.googlepages.com)

14. Subbuteo clubs twin (by Simon Hutchinson) The Southern California Subbuteo club is proud to announce that they are "twinning" with three other table soccer clubs:
- North East Table Football Club (NETFA) of Middlesborough, England
- West Coast Table Soccer Club (WCTSC) of Surrey, British Coumbia, Canada
- Singapore Lions Subbuteo Club (SLSC) of Singapore "This is an exciting opportunity for us to form relationships with these three dynamic clubs," said Simon Hutchinson of the SCSC.  "I think we all realize that for this sport to become more popular we need to think beyond our local areas.  It also formalizes some of the unofficial relationships we have with the members of these clubs"
The full story can be found on the SCSC's website at http://socalsubbuteo.googlepages.com (http://socalsubbuteo.googlepages.com)

15. Belgium: happy birthday

1. Grand Prix of Berlin
Saverio Bari (Reggio Emilia) won his first tournament of the season after he beat Eric Verhagen (San Siro) on shots in the final of last week-end's Grand Prix of Germany in Berlin. Giacomo Monica and Massimiliano Nastasi reached the semi-finals. In the other categories, Giacomo Monica beat Paolo Finardi to win the veterans title while Björn Kegenbein won both U15 and
U19 sections. Victoria Busing won the ladies tournament. In the International open for teams, San Siro Worthing Five Star won their 5th tournament of the season as they beat SMV Delft in the final.

2. Satellite of Truro
8 players took part in the FISTF Satellite of Truro, Nova Scozia, Canada.
The holder of the title, Gary Caven, didn't manage to win the 2nd edition of the tournament as he lost the final to Mark Meihuizen, the new president of the canadian association (2-3). Paul Caven and Ryan MacDonald reached the semi-finals.

3. International friendlies
The following international friendlies will be played at the Grand Prix of Austria next week:
Open Category: Austria - England & Austria - Italy Veteran Category: Austria - Germany

4. FISTF archives
Updated files are:
- Statistics fo the Grand Prix winners (Excel)
- Season 2007-08 and 1994-95 (Word)
- History of Satellites (Word)

5. Finnish championship
The Finnish championship tournament with the FISTF-rules was organized on 25th of november. 17 players participated and the finalists were big surprises. Last year's finalists, Sihvola and Mustonen were eliminated before semi-finals and even the Utrecht "professional" Marko Karhunen could reach only the 3rd place. Perhaps that is a sign that the level is rising, little by little.

Semi-finals : Marko Tiikkaja - Kari Hakkarainen 2-0 ; Marko Karhunen - Wille Hölttä 0-0*
Final: Marko Tiikkaja - Wille Hölttä 3-2

The finnish association also organized a Finnish championship tournament with the finnish rules. 11 players participated and the final was Petri Pekkala - Jani Mustonen 1-0.

6. Open of Issy

8. More about the italian cup

A. Feo - G. Tagliaferri 5-0

In the Open category "B", the correct result of the final was Emanuele Licheri - Saverio Bari 2-1

9. New FISTF forum
Due to several problems with the current forum (FISTF doesn't have the codes of the forum so we can't nominate new moderators and we can't accept new users), a new forum is now under construction and will be launched next week.

10. England: Leicester Open (by Jeremy Bradley) The Leicester Open took place on November 18, 2007. Eric Verhagen cut a swathe of destruction in the first ESTFA Circuit event of the season, held in Whetstone, Leicester. A dissappointingly low turnout of 12 participated.
Eric notched up 50 goals in 6 games to win his first ESTFA Circuit event, in the final he defeated organisor Jeremy Bradley 7-0! Simon Bryan won the plate 2-0 against The Lion of Ludesch AKA Richard Pepper. A good day was had by all with everyone receiving at least 5 games.

11. Canada: "Burnaby Mountain Madness".
It has been announced that Terry Berting from the Colebrook Subbuteo League will be hosting the next CSTFA tournament in the Region of British Columbia.  The tournament will be held at 2:00pm on December 16th, 2007.
For more details and to register for this tournament contact Terry at http://www.canadiansubbuteo.ca/index.php?pr=Events (http://www.canadiansubbuteo.ca/index.php?pr=Events)

12. Canada: 2007 Trent River Royal CSTF Tournament Bruno Biasini won the first tournament of the season in Ontario as he managed to beat Steve Whitehead on shots after a 1-1 draw in the final.

13. Belgium: Olivier Delogne wins
Olivier Delogne (Brussels) won the national tournament held in Mechelen last saturday. Players of the "C-category" only were allowed to take part.
In the final, Delogne beat Peter Pollaert (SC Flanders) 1-0. Glenn Pollaert won the U15 section. 9 Open players and 13 U15 players were taking part.

14. USA: SCSC Goes 'Cold Turkey' (by Simon Hutchinson) In the first of what we hope will be an annual post-Thanksgiving tournament Wayne Smith won the 'Cold Turkey 07' tournament beating Simon Hutchinson in the final. Dominic Hutchinson won the 'Giblets' with a victory over Adam Carlson in the other final. A link to a full report, the results and photographs from both finals can be found on the Southern California Subbuteo Club's website at http://socalsubbuteo.googlepages.com (http://socalsubbuteo.googlepages.com)

1. Grand Prix of Austria in Vienna
81 players from 10 countries took part in last week-end's FISTF Grand Prix of Vienna. In the Open category, Simone Bertelli beat Eric Verhagen 2-1 to win the 3rd Grand Prix of his career (after Venice 96 and Trieste 96).
Kostas Triantafillou and Stefano De Francesco lost in the semis.
Alexander Haas beat Thomas Karnthaler to take the U19 title while Diego Tagliaferri from Italy beat Dominik Vanek from Czech Republic in the U15 final.
The veterans tournament was played by 20 played, which were dropped in four groups of 5 players. Erich Hinkelmann finally beat Michael Hasieber in the final (3-0). Valentina Bartolini from Italy won her first international title in the ladies section while the Italians of Black & Blue Pisa beat San Siro Worthing 5 Star in the final of the team event thanks to a goal of Danielle Bertelli in the sudden death.

2. Open of Ellicott City (by Paul Eyes)
Miguel Marques wins US International Open.
Miguel Marques of the Subbuteo Club of Connecticut (SCC) took the honors in the largest tournament ever staged in the USA. In the Open, 66 players made up the field, with representatives from 13 states and Canada. Marques battled through a tough half of the draw, securing a 2-1 victory over surprise finalist Alex Batacchi from Florida in the final. Patrick Sheridan of Maryland claimed the U19 title by defeating club mate Stuart Russell on shots. Jim Taylor and Gregg Deinhart reached the semis.
Matt Steinmuller beat Collin Dohner 2-0 for the U15 honors. Dave Baxter beat Gregg Deinhart of WTSL 2-1 in the veterans final.
The team event was won by Connecticut (SCC), who defeated Maryland (MSC) 2-0 in the final.
76 players in total competed, which is a new record for the game in North America.

3. Johannesburg Open/First SA Champion Crowned (by Clifford Graaff) The 2nd of December 2007 proved to be a historical day in table football in South Africa.
The first South African Table Football Championships were held at the Discovery Recreational Centre and a record field of 15 participants took part.
Each participant was sponsored with a beautiful Mille kit bag and Mille sports shirt worth in excess of R 100.00.
The 15 participants were drawn into five groups of three with the group winners and the three best runner-ups qualifying for the senior quarter finals.
Before the knock-out games commenced everybody was treated to a delicious free lunch courtesy of Colleen Graaff (Clifford's wife).
The remaining juniors and girls then qualified for their respective group semi finals and finals.
The girls final saw Gillian Graaff account for her very good friend Robyn Morgan in the final to claim her first title.
The boys final also saw two good friends compete for the title and Michael Fouche (who has only been playing for three weeks) defeated Richard Graaff
3-2 on shots after a goalless final.
The semi finals saw Reza Bodiat taking pre-tournament favourite Clifford Graaff to a tense game and only losing by the odd goal in three. Sean Morgan then accounted for junior Taariq Bodiat 3-1. Taariq Bodiat has managed to reach the senior semi finals in two of the three FISTF tournaments this year and this augurs well for Taariq in the future.
Reza Bodiat defeated his son Taariq by 7 goals to 4 in a highly entertaining curtain raiser to the final.
The first ever FISTF-approved SA Championships was decided once again between arch rivals Clifford Graaff and Sean Morgan. The final lived up to its status and top quality play was dished up to keep a boisterous crowd on the edge of their seats for an enthralling 30 minutes.
Sean got the final off to a cracking start and scored the first goal early in the game to place pressure on Clifford. The pressure paid off and a very tentative Clifford was soon on the back foot when Sean slotted his second goal after a sublime flowing movement from his own area. Clifford then managed to pull a goal back to close the gap. However Sean quickly seized the initiative again and scored his third goal after a foul by Clifford in the shooting area. Sean then had a great chance to score his fourth only to see his shot saved by Clifford. From the resultant clearance Clifford sneaked in his second goal on the stroke of halftime – this proved to be the turning point in the game.
Clifford then turned on the pressure in the second half and placed Sean under tremendous pressure. Clifford then equalized to set up a grand stand finish to a great game. Sean then committed an uncharacteristic foul in his own area and Clifford chipped the ball over the defensive wall and took the lead for the first time. Clifford then managed to score his fifth and deciding goal after a great build-up and secure his third FISTF title of the year and claim the South African title for 2007.
Each junior received a trophy irrespective of where they finished and the delight on their faces was priceless.
Lucky draw prizes, courtesy of our two smaller sponsors namely Absa and Wesbank, were also handed out to the winners.
The curtain has now been drawn on a highly successful first season and SATFA are extremely happy with the remarkable progress that has been made and even bigger and better plans are already underway for 2008.

4. Grand Prix of Denmark

1. Some wishes for 2008
Dear all, 2007 has been a very good year for FISTF. We had more tournaments and more players than ever in the past, we had our first events in Finland, South Africa and Singapore, the Europa Cup and the World Cup were great but also the level of play is higher than ever with the emergence of new top talents such as Daniele Bertelli, Wolfgang Leitner, Tiago Sousa, Kasper Bennett,...

For the FISTF Board, 2007 was also a very important year as FISTF is now a legal association with all our statutes and internal regulations approved by the french law. FISTF also became a registered trademark. We also had a very important help from our new webmaster, Mr Christos Archimandritis, who is running the new FISTF website in a very professional way. The disciplinary Board has officially started working thanks to their three
members: Vassilis Koutsombinas (Greece), Chris Wrigley (England) and Robert Lenz (Austria). The marketing department (Alan Collins) has made many new positive contacts with the medias and companies while Heinz Eder and Frédéric Perdaens have made an amazing work to run the sports department.
Finally, we managed to compile the archives of the FISTF tournaments from
1993 to 2007, which took a lot of time. Hundreds of pages have been written and the files will satisfy those who like to keep an eye on former tournaments and statistics.

Another good step forward is that the FISTF shop is now open from our partner's website at www.astrobase.it (http://www.astrobase.it)

Some changes have been made to improve the quality of the FISTF calendar.
The rule of the 3rd week-end of the month has been accepted by the big majority of nations so that more week-ends are free for national competitions. I think it's a major move for everyone.

Of course, there are many big challenges for 2008. We hope to convince more players to work for the good of the game. The game wouldn't exist without the people who work at local or national level to organize leagues, tournaments or to work on administrative tasks. This is the reason why it is important to respect these people and to become members of the national associations. Many players only think about playing and don't accept to pay a membership fee to support their association. This is the case in particular in England and I really hope to see a positive move to support the ESTFA in 2008.

More challenges are present for the next few months. FISTF is trying to find a solution to change the rules about the goalkeepers. We have several ideas but it will take time to achieve things. Anyway, a major move might happen in the next few months.

The FISTF Board will also decide which tournaments will be Majors next season. There will be some decisions to take in a few weeks time and it will be another difficult job for us.

Finally, we'll try to have more member nations and of course tournaments in some more countries. Our next big tournaments, the world cup in Austria and the european cup for clubs in England, will be huge tournaments and we hope that many players and teams will take part.

In the name of the FISTF Board, I wish you a very good year 2008 and a lot of fun playing table football.

1. Challenger of Brussels (by Philippe Hipfinger) The first FISTF event of the year was played in Watermael-Boitsfort, a nice area of Brussels, with 26 players registered. Players could play in 2 categories if they were allowed according to the World Ranking.  In Open, Steve Grégoire who had no points in this category on the Rankings, claimed the victory by defeating Frédéric Vanton of Brussels SC in the final.
Frédéric Vanton beat one of the favourite of the day, Olivier Delogne in the quarter finals.  In the Veterans, Pol Serwy from SC Jambes repeated his victory from the last future of Brussels by beating again the same opponent in the final, Patrick Peltier from Brussels SC.  In the U19, Jonathan Thulier from Templeuve United was too strong for the 13 years old Océane Van Melkebeke from Brussels SC. She also lost surprisingly the final in U15 against almost 9 years old Kenny De Schuyteneer from Brussels United.
In the team category, SC Jambes reached the final by beating Templeuve United in a very close semi-final and was a solid opponent for Brussels SC in the final which won 2-0 with the presence of Gil Delogne in the team who was not planned to play but wished to play a game as he seems very motivated to defend the colours of his home new team!

2. Grand Prix of England
Alan Collins is happy to announce that the event is going ahead at the same venue. The rumor announcing the event was cancelled were therefore just rumors...

newsletter)
On December 30th, the Stampede City TFC played their first tournament in Calgary, AB. Well done to all the players that competed in Alberta's first ever CSTFA Tournament and congratulations goes out to Brian Redmond for winning the event.  Brian beat James Redmond in a shoot-out to take the title.  Brian had this to say about the event:
"I would have to classify our 1st Tournament as a success, even though we were missing two members due to previous commitments (weak), 5 of 7 members is not that bad.
Stampede City TFC would like take this time to thank Dave Baxter (World Table Soccer) for selling us all of our wonderful table soccer equipment and for the incredible donation of 2 AstroPitches (Sellout.com Stadium and The Eagles Nest). We would also like to thank the REAL Canadian Superstore and Hot Carl's Mud Emporium for their continued support."

8. Subbuteo Connect (Written by Steve Whitehead) Ever wondered if you have subbuteo players living nearby?  Going on holiday, and maybe want to find a local club to visit while you are there?
How about sneaking off to a subbuteo match while on your honeymoon?  Well maybe not, but some might try. With Subbuteo Connect you can plot yourself, or your club on the map.  You can even list your upcoming tournament locations and add your table soccer photographs.  The map cycles through the members, panning to their geographic location in the world, or you can control the map using zoom in and out on particular regions.  The photo slide show runs as you operate the map.

This application currently has over 200 members, but I believe we have only scratched the surface.  Please take a moment to look at Subbuteo Connect and put yourself on the map.  I developed this map because it was obvious there are loads of subbuteo players out there just waiting to connect with each other.  Who knows, the guy nextdoor might play.

Please feel free to check out the site and register your information, the more people the better.

9. Scotland: re-launch in Glasgow (by Jim Law) On Thursday 24 Jan 2008 the Glasgow Table Soccer Association will reform playing fortnightly in a venue in Glasgow city centre. It is expected that there will be initially 7 - 10 players taking part. The club is being organised by Willie Fleming a ex Scottish international Table Soccer player and others in the Glasgow area who played Table Soccer (ETF rules) many years ago. The SSTFA and World Table Soccer will be assisting them by providing new pitches/boards , goals and figures for those who need them.
It is hoped the Glasgow players will take eventually take part in the remaining Scottish National Circuit events and the forthcomoing Glasgow GP.

10. Argentina: Copa Rosario 2008 (by Claudio Miscia) The first "Copa Rosario" was held last 12th of January in Rosario, Argentina, organized by the newly formed club ASR08. 17 players gave life to the most crowded tournament ever in South America. Nino Di Giannantonio played his "Inter" to the victory in the U12 cup against Marco Miscia ("Fiorentina"), winning thanks to a Golden Gol.

Tonino Silvestrini's "Lazio" won the final of the open Cup against Benedetto Colarossi's "Roma", under the cameras of local television Canal Cooperativo, which entirely filmed the match to broadcast it soon; Radio Corazón was also there. Claudio Miscia ("San Marino") and Marco Miscia took respectively the 3rd and 4th place.

ASR08, who is organizing the first Grand Prix in Argentina, to be held the 3rd-4th of May in Rosario, induces its players to use names of teams (real or invented) in order to make competitions more attractive to newbyes, media and spectators.

11. Finland new club
There is one new club in Finland, which is called Porvoon Subbuteo Klubi The contact person is Ilkka Tuominen (www.subbuteoworld.co.uk (http://www.subbuteoworld.co.uk) for more details.

13. USA: 2008 Maricopa Cup (by Simon Hutchinson) On Sunday January 13 the 2008 Maricopa Cup started with the first round played in Simi Valley.  Wayne Smith's dominance of the California Subbuteo scene continued as he finished top of the tournament group undefeated.
Simon Hutchinson's narrow victory over Kevin Nieman ensured that he finished in second place.  Nieman finished in third place due to his superior goal difference over Andrea Guarducci. Dominic Hutchinson finished in fifth place with one win. Adam Carlson finished in sixth with one draw.
Guarducci's catenacciodefense, excellent flicking, and use of the Maricopa Vase rules made it too hard for the top three players to beat him. Dominic was the only person to do so, and that game was played using regular rules.
A full report and all the scores can be found on the Southern California Subbuteo Club's website at http://socalsubbuteo.googlepages.com (http://socalsubbuteo.googlepages.com)

27 January with the International Open to be held at the Victor Tedesco Stadium, Hamrun.

9. FISTF diary of clubs & associations
Some of you probably know I have started to write a book caled the "International diary of clubs". The goal of the book is to write a small story for each national association, the list of active clubs (with the details of each club's contact person, the schedule of the club meetings,...), the contact person of the association and a small section called "A bit of geography" to tell more about where in the country the clubs are.

Here is a list of countries and the situation for each association. Any person wanting to give help to write articles or to collect datas is more than welcome. Thanks. A copy of the book can be sent mby e-mail.

9. Paul Eyes' Subbuteo Teacher Vlog
Paul has created a great new teaching tool using on-line video. Its a great thing especially to share with new players.
Here's what Paul had to say about it, on the ASA Forum: "Just started putting this together. I will expand as time allows! The video editing is basically non existent as I have no patience for things like that! I also have a very vbasic video camera so resolution is not great, but I think it works fine. Some familiar segments, but also some new stuff. Goal is to categorize and have a go to place for subbuteo related vids:"

1. Malta: MTFSA event 2 (by Hansel Mallia) During last weekend, the MTFSA organised the second local event held at the Victor Tedesco Stadium. Three events of this kind are scheduled so that divisions will be formed at the end of the season to establish the Maltese Champion. This competition was done on a tournament basis were 16 players took part. Four groups of three and one group of four meant that only the first two players from each group managed to qualify for the next stage.
Two matches of preliminary round took place soon after the groups in which Hansel Mallia and Kenneth Attard lost to Mark Gauci and Massimo Cremona 2-3 and 1-2 respectively.

At quarter final stage, Charles Aquilina and Derek Conti lost to Mark Gauci and Samuel Bartolo while Joe Mifsud won over Massimo Cremona with a 2-0 margin and Ilai Zammit bet Adrian Bonnici 2-1. In the semis, Gauci won his encounter 5-2 against Ilai Zammit while Bartolo lost to Mifsud 2-1 in the extra time. The final between Gauci and Mifsud encountered a very open match where Mifsud was twice ahead but did not retain the lead and lost 3-2 to Gauci.

1. The 4th Major will be held in London
London will host a FISTF Major in the season 2008-09. FISTF Decided to give a chance to the San Siro Worthing 5 Star club as Nicky chapell and Eric Verhagen sent a very convincing presentation file for their tournament.
Anyway, FISTF decided that the Major will only be warded for one year and that a decision to continue or not will happen after the first edition of the tournament. More details will follow.

2. 3 tournaments next week-end
The forthcoming week-end will have three interesting tournaments. The Grand Prix of Denmark will have a great field of players and seems to be very interesting.
South Africa will have their 4th FISTF tournament and for the first time Clifford Graaf, who is now in the world's top 300, will not be allowed to play, which means that the winner of the Future in Johannesburg will win his first FISTF title ever.
Finally, the Future of Mechelen, the first tournament ever organized in the FLanders (dutch-speaking side of Belgium) will have a good fiel with already 30 entries and 5 teams. And possibly more to come...

3. Grand Prix of Malta
The Grand Prix of Malta will finally take place on May 3 & 4.

4. Grand Prix of France in Beausoleil
The invitation file is now available from Alex Popoff at www.gp-beausoleil.blogspot.com (http://www.gp-beausoleil.blogspot.com)

5. Italy: Pisa on top
Black and Blue Pisa took the lead in the italian league after the first leg held in their hometown on February 16 & 17. Pisa won 6 games and drew 3 times, which was enough to keep a short advantage of 1 point over Perugia and 2 points over Reggio Emilia. To be noted that the Eagles napoli played most of their games with only 3 players (Bolognino, Guimaraes and Setale).
The table: 1. Pisa 21 ; 2. Perugia 20 ; 3. Reggio Emilia 19 ; 4. Bologna and Stella Artois Milano 13 ; 6. Napoli 12 ; 7. Black Rose Roma 10 ; 8.
Bari 6 ; 9. Falconara 5 ; 10. Palermo 4.
In the Serie B, in a very open league, the team of CCT Roma took a clear option to the promotion to Seria A. The team of Antonello Rodriquez managed to remain unbeaten and they are 7 points ahead of Sessana and Torino while Fiamme Azzurre is now the top candidate to be relegated to Serie C.
The table: 1. CCT Roma 25 ; 2. Sessana and Warriors Torino 18 ; 4. Cagliari
16 ; 5. Ascoli 13 ; 6. Leonessa Brescia 12 ; 7. Virtus 4Strade Rieti 10 ; 8. Biella 8 ; 9. Catania 7 ; 10. Fiamme Azzurre 3.

6. England: Chris Thomas and EPL are champions The "English Premier League" team won the national team title last week-end at the ESTFA cbhampionships after they beat San Siro Worthing 5 Star in the final. Congratulations to Dave Pawsey, Matt Lampitt, Justin Finch and Paul Sutton. Chris Thomas took the individual title after he beat Chris Short in the final. Matt Lampitt and Dave Pawsey lost in the semis. In the Veterans Category, Evertonian Phil Redman continued his domination of the event with a 4-0 final win over Leicester's Jeremy Bradley.

2. Grand Prix of Denmark
Despite the poor attendance of foreign players, last week's FISTF Grand Prix in Odense was another interesting tournament with 44 players taking part. There was no surprise in the Open category with Eric Verhagen beating
Massimo Cremona in the final (2-1) while Robbert Thoen      and Anders Buhl
Hansen reached the semis. The other categories were interesting also with a very close final between Dominik Schulz and Björn Kegenbein in the U19 category (4-4) and Shulz winning on shots. The U15 section was another german affair with Björn Kegenbein beating Marcel Kwiatkowski (2-0). In the veterans, there was a big surprise with Marcus Tilgner beating Henk Landzaat in the semi (3-1) and René Bolte in the final (2-0). René Frey, also from Germany, took the U12 title after beating Nico Wilse (3-0).
In the team event, Sparta Spreeathen 74/82 beat SSG Borussia Bergkamen
(2-1) in the final.

3. FISTF Future of Mechelen
The first FISTF tournament ever organized in the Flanders (dutch-speaking side of Belgium) was a successful day for the local table football community with the presence of 32 players and 4 teams. In the Open category, Didier Van Renterghem (Brussels SC, 208th in the world rankings) defeated local player Peter Pollaert while Bart Van de Vliet and Jerry De Paron reached the semis. The U15 tournament had 17 entries and young talent Glenn Pollaert defeated Andries De Stuyver in the final to win his first international title. In the veterans, Diederik Boyen won the final against Filip Van Hulle.
Finally, the team event was full of interesting games. Templeuve United (with 3 players) defeated SC Flanders in the semi-final but could beat the top favorite of Brussels SC in the final. Brussels SC, who won the first ever Challenger for team in January, is now in the FISTF history of the first ever winner of a Future for teams.

4. FISTF Future of Johannesburg
The 2nd edition of the FISTF Future of Johannesburg took place last sunday and 9 players took part. As the top 3 Sout African players in the world rankings are now in the top 300, there was a chance to finally stop Clifford Graaff's supremacy in local events. In a very open final, Harold Silber finally defeated Reza Bodiat 5-4 while Max Silber won the U15 tournament.

5. FISTF Future of Johannesburg - Clifford Graaf's report The 24 of February 2008 saw the second Future of Johannesburg  Table Football Tournament under the auspices of both FISTF and SATFA take place at Mark's Park in Johannesburg. The Johannesburg Table Football Club was the organizing club.
A total of nine participants took part which included three novices.
After the group stages the semi finals saw Jason Graaff (after a break of over 20 years) go down fighting by three goals to one to Harold Silber (Harold's third goal has been described as one of the best seen in local games as he converted from the tightest of angles in the top corner of the net).
In the other semi final Reza continued his much-improved form by accounting for junior Max Silber by four goals to nil.
The final paired Reza against Harold which resulted in an epic struggle producing nine scintillating goals. Harold got the final off to a blistering start when a lapse in Reza's defense saw Harold blast the ball in the top corner from just inside the shooting area. Reza's reply was almost immediate as his close control forged a gap in Harold's defense to equalize. This spurred both players on to produce top quality table football which would've graced any tournament final. Harold regained the momentum half way through the first half with a well taken goal only to see Reza rally immediately to once again equalize. Harold then produced a bit of magic as an attempt from his own goal area allowed the ball to be passed to a well positioned striker to net his third goal just before half time.
However Reza was not to be outdone and an intricate move from the half way line allowed him to canon his third goal in from an acute angle shortly after the start of a pulsating second half.
Harold, who was now playing with nerves of steel, once again seized the initiative by splitting Reza's defense with an immaculate through ball from his goal kick to set up a great lob over the keeper to grab a very important lead. Reza through everything in attack in searching for the equalizer. However this allowed gabs to be created in his defense which Harold exploited by once again piecing together a very good move to open up space and set up a great strike to double his lead. Reza's reply was almost instantaneously as Harold failed to clear his area resulting in a quick one-two and a thunderous goal from Reza to set up a grand stand finish.
Time was now running out for Reza who now through everything in attack only to see a very calm Harold defend with aplomb. The final whistle brought an end to a titanic struggle and also heralded in a deserving new Future of Johannesburg champion, namely Harold Silber. However Reza was instrumental in making this final one of the all time greats. A word of thanks must go to both players as the final was contested in a great spirit.
Max Silber capped a great day for the Silber clan by defeating Michael
Fouche in a      thriller which ended in a one-all draw. The resultant
shoot-out saw some great shooting and goalkeeping by Max to keep out a steadily improving Michael and underline his potential as a great young prospect for the future.
Congratulations go out to both the winners and a big round of thanks go to all the participants in making the day a truly enjoyable occasion.

1. Major of Mons
The 33rd Major in the history of FISTF took place ont he first week-end of March. It was a very big tournament with 44 teams on the saturday, 213 individuals, 12 countries and 46 different clubs among the entries. Running the tournament was also a real challenge for the organizers and dthey did it perfectly.

The team event was full of surprises. We must admit some of the top teams didn't show up with their best players as there were some late drop-outs like Bolognino, Guimaraes and Mettivieri (Napoli), Mattiangeli, De Francesco and Nastasi (Perugia), Lamberti (Reggio Emilia) or Matzinger (Mattersburg). In the barrage round, Mattersburg was defeated by the B-team of AS Hennuyer, which played with their "old legends" like Brau, Ruelle, mairesse, Dieu and Père while Stembert beat Perugia and Temploux defeated CCT Roma. The last 16 round was also full of surprises with Hansel Mallia's golden goal to help AS Hennuyer to beat Hamrun TFC while Roligans beat current european champions of Pisa and Temploux manage to beat Brussels SC thanks to an individual victory of Steve Grégoire over Gil Delogne.

After many close games in the qruarter-finals and the semis, Murcia and Reggio Emilia qualified for the big final. The spanish side dominated the first half but finally the Italians took over in the last 15 minutes to win their 3rd title in a Major thanks to individual victories of Bari and Sousa.

The Open tournament was also of a vey high level with 126 players taking part. Only 2 players from the host countries were still involved during the quarter-finals but finally Belgium managed to surprise many top players thanks to Sami Targui (25 years old, SC Charleroi, 67th in the world ranking). The young Belgian, who lives just a few kilometers away from the venue, managed to beat Stefano Buono, Carlos Flores, Saverio Bari, Robert Lenz and finally Wolfgang Leitner to win his first international tournament in the Open category.

Belgium took also two important titles int he individual categories as Justin Leroy managed to score a golden goal in the U19 final to beat Juan Noguera (Spain) while Elodie Bertholet beat Victoria Büsing (Germany) in the ladies final. Bertholet, 3rd int he world rankings, wins her first Major ever.

Int he veterans, the tournament was dominated by 2 nations as both the Netherlands and Italy had 4 players int he quarter-finals. Finally, it was a full italian story with Severino Gara beating Mauro Manganello to win his 3rd Major after Bologna 2005 & 2007.

In the U15 section, Andrea Manganello did better than his father as he beat Angelo Borg from Malta on shots in the final while Kai Hagenkötter won the
U12 final without playing. His opponent, Federico Solari from italy, had to catch his plane early and couldn't play the game.

As a conclusion, we can say it was a very good tournament and that once again Mons proved to be the place to be for all table football lovers.

6. www.flickabout.com (http://www.flickabout.com) supports Jamie Turner (by Fabrizio Ghilardi) What you are about to read is not a funny story. It is a bitter, dramatic, sad story. It should make us think. It is the story of any fan of any football team of any country. That he is called Jamie Turner and is a fan of Manchester United is really just a detail. Certainly, not for him and certainly not for his family. The date of 15th May 2005 will remain impressed in Jamie Turner's memory for the rest of his life. Luckily.
Because it means that he still has a life and a memory. And, from the very beginning, it was clear that the risk of losing both was very high. Like so many times as he had done before with his friends, on that damn day Jamie had gone to the away match to support Manchester United, his favourite team. The season's calendar had brought him to the south of the island, to Southampton. Suddenly, however, the day of fun was turned into a nightmare.
A long and painful nightmare. As soon as he arrived in the vicinity of the stadium, he was attacked from behind by a group of fans of the local team and in a moment he found himself on the ground, hit on the head and unconscious. His skull had caved in, was fractured from ear to ear and the whole business was complicated by a brain haemorrhage. Immediately assisted and taken to the neurosurgical department of Southampton hospital, he had a whole section of his skull removed to facilitate the operation required to stop the haemorrhage. His family was immediately informed of his critical condition which was such as be seriously lifethreatening. For three weeks Jamie Turner was in a coma suspended between life and death. When he did awake it was immediately obvious that his brain has been gravely damaged and that if he ever did recover it would have taken some time, seeing as how Jamie has awakened with the mind of a five year old child. His wife and children stayed by his bedside trying to stimulate the recovery of his mental faculties and trying to discover what information he still possessed, as practically nothing of his life was initially present in his memory files: Jamie was just about able to read, but not to write, he had aphasia, an alteration of the language faculty, his voice was monotonous and his capacity of expression very limited. And that was not all: Jamie was paralyzed on one side of his body and in spite of every effort, his left arm and hand were blocked and, by not  transmitting the correct signals to his brain, his left eye denied him full capacity of sight.
Terrible migraines and a constant sense of fatigue worsened his case history. After numerous operations and much rehabilitation, with tens of specialists from various sectors of medical science, in August 2006 Jamie Turner was finally operated on once more to fix his broken skull with the insertion of a plaque to replace the piece of skullcap that had been removed in May 2005. This was necessary to protect the part of his brain where the blows had damaged it most. A few moments was all it took to make him a vegetable and years were needed to help him to recover a semblance of normality that will never be total. And above all so much suffering and unbelievable expenses. Jamie is still not able to work; he suffers from problems of sight, depression and constant migraines. And he has a great need to sleep and rest. But Jamie Turner's story does not end here. Thanks to the help of his family, his friends, the fans of Manchester United and many nameless people, Jamie has  ecovered. Slowly, but he has recovered. On 11th January last, Manchester United Football Club invited him with his family to meet the players of his favourite team on the occasion of the work-out before the following day's match. And on 12th January, Jamie Turner returned to the Old Trafford. The United players had promised him an intense match, dedicated to him and his family. A victory, all for them.
And that was how it went: Manchester United won 6-0 against Newcastle.
Jamie, overcome with emotion, returned for a few moments to being a normal man, forgetting his great suffering. And so, for now, we come to the end of a tragic story of a football fan, cowardly attacked by someone who left him almost dead on the ground. Action Now – Play old style has decided to offer its own small contribution of economic assistance to the Turner family.
Over the next few days, in agreement with Jamie Turner and his family, some photographic works donated by the Swedish artist Charlotta Smeds – works that were shown in the Photographic Exhibition 'Flick about' and that portray Subbuteo players of Manchester United – will be auctioned. The proceeds of the auction will be given to the Fund that was created especially for Jamie. Because even a small offering can contribute to assisting a great man and a great fan.
Jamie Turner.

1. America Cup 2008 - A Success! (from our contact person in the US) Now that the first ever FISTF North American Continental Cup, aka America Cup 2008 has passed, it can definitely be viewed as a great success.  The level of play, organization and sportsmanship was at an all time high here in the US with some great results.  In this first edition, the Paul Eyes Table Soccer Academy, aka Maryland Subbuteo Club walked away as the big winners, getting their revenge over their Old Firm rival, Subbuteo Club of Connectict.

The team final was the highlight of the weekend with one of the most intense, well played team matches ever on American soil.  The youngsters from Maryland SC came up big getting some clutch wins in their matches (Cranston 3-0 over Conturso and Sheridan 2-0 over Taylor) which proved to be the difference in the match and hand the title and coveted America Cup to the club from Maryland.

In the Open, Zach Walker managed to top the extremely tough field with very close matches in the quarter finals and semi finals against Tillman and Conturso.  3 past ASA National Champions in Walker, Deinhart and Wilcox all were in attendance, showing how much depth there was in the playing field.  Also notable was the great play of U19 US Champion Patrick Sheridan who at the age of only 17, managed to make the final in the Open category over the tough field.

In the U-19 category, a massive 26 players came out to fight for the title as top youngster and as most commonly has happened, the Maryland SC youngsters rose to the top, but this time it was Daniel Cranston topping his good friend and clubmate Patrick Sheridan in a very close and tight final 2-1 in extra time.  The level of play in the youth category shows how the hard work of Paul Eyes and co. is paying off as more and more youth are playing the game every year and are becoming better and better, both challenging each other and also the players in the Open category.

And lastly in the Veterans category it came down to a re-match of the 2007 US National Veterans Final between Paul Eyes and Gregg Deinhart.  This time Eyes got his revenge by edging out Deinhart in yet another close game, winning on shots to claim top spot in this category at the America Cup.

All in all it was yet another great weekend of table soccer in the U.S., showing that the level of play, organization and interest for this great game is increasing with every day.  Plans are already being discussed for an America Cup 2009 so make sure to stay tuned for that as North Americans are hoping to make this an annual event, hopefully enticing players from all over the continent to attend.

Many thanks to the FISTF BoD and community for supporting their friends from the Western Hemisphere and providing them the opportunity to host their first ever Continental Cup!

3. Special website for FISTF Awards SUBBUTEOscar Here is the new website just only for the FISTF Awards matters.
http://freenet-homepage.de/gleitzeit/index.htm (http://freenet-homepage.de/gleitzeit/index.htm)
Congratulations to Thossa Büsing for his great work. Feedback can be sent to heinz.eder@fistf.com (mailto:heinz.eder@fistf.com)

4. About the FISTF forum
Some people noticed the less number of users on FISTF forum. How comes? In the older forum we had more people who discussed. What can we do to attrack people to this good communication tool. Maybe an announced fixed meeting-time at the forum with a slogan on www.fistf.com (http://www.fistf.com) or in the weekly newsletter can help. Monday evening 8 pm (MET) could be a good time (because about 24 hrs after a FISTF tournament weekend) or Thursday evening
8 pm (MET) short before the next FISTF tournament. It's just an idea so everyone is welcome to joint he forum at this time of the week to discuss the actuality of table football.
Thanks to Thossa Büsing for the great idea.

8. Argentina - Newcomers cup in Rosario (by Claudio Miscia) In view of the first Grand Prix of Argentina, to be held in Rosario on May 3rd-4th, the local Asociación Subbuteo Rosario 2008 launched a special cup to prepare newcomers to the hobby to play in the Gran Prix. All players who ever won any prize in table football are not admitted to the Copa Principiantes 2008: on the other hand they are welcome to help new players and less experienced players to have fun with the game, to learn the rules, to play their games. The local Radio Corazón, through the program "Il cittadino", organized the competition, which is free of charge and with no request of being members of ASR08.

4. Argentina: Dante Alighieri Involved in Subbuteo? Only in Rosario (by Claudio Miscia)
 The important school Dante Alighieri of Rosario, Argentina, hosted a demonstration of table football to the students. Initially programmed in two turns of 30 minutes each, the demonstration actually lasted more than 4 hours, due to the great enthusiasm showed by students and teachers. More than 100 people could see the game and more than 20 actually had their first ticks, following the instructions and explanations of the headquarters of the local Subbuteo Association, ASR08, Paolo, Roberto, Benedetto and Vanesa, who mounted two tables in the school. Many of these people were induced to announce their participation to the Newcomers Cup (April 26th) , which has been organized in order to duly launch the first Grand Prix of Argentina, to be held in Rosario on May 3rd-4th (see www.asr08.com.ar (http://www.asr08.com.ar) and click on Gran Prix Argentina 2008 to see the presentation page in four languages.

1. Major of London moves to Amsterdam
Because of several reasons, FISTF has decided to award the 4th Major for the season 2008-2009 to Amsterdam instead of London. FISTF didn't get the guarantee that the tournament could take place with the very high standards a major should always have. The organizers of the Amsterdam Grand Prix accepted the challenge and promised to host a big tournament on April 4 & 5, 2009. Players interested for details can contact Robbert Thoen at http://home.arcor.de/mtilgner/bfc08/bfc-08.htm (http://home.arcor.de/mtilgner/bfc08/bfc-08.htm)
Best regards, hope to see you next year in Austria

7. Grand Prix of Argentina Rosario (by Claudio Miscia) It was the biggest tournament ever organized in South America, a great success for the Argentinian League and the guys from Rosario: the 38 participants from Argentina, Italy and England, players from Rosario, Buenos Aires, Córdoba and Mar del Plata disputed the 5 trophies.
Efisio Fois was the big winner of the Grand Prix, beating Patricio Echevarrieta 1-0 in the final match of the open tournament and Benedetto Colarossi 5-1 in the final of the Veteran's Cup.
Claudia Cuello took the Ladies' Cup to Buenos Aires, winning all the games against the girls of Córdoba and Rosario, which made the second place thanks to Vanesa Heisterborg.
Rosario was superior in the young section: Fabrizio Castello won the Under
15 competition and Nino Di Giannantonio won the Under 12 one. In both competitions Marco Miscia reported the second place.
Final numbers: 120 matches played on 9 tables, 352 goals scored, 22 hours of competition, 5 cups and 15 medals. See all the data, the results and the pictures on www.asr08.com.ar (http://www.asr08.com.ar)

8. Grand Prix of Malta & Open of Hamrun
Massimo Cremona won both tournaments last week-end in hamrun. There were players from Malta and Italy taking part. Matthew Pace (Open) and Darren Bezzina (GP) were the U15 winners while the Veterans titles went to Emilio Richichi (Open) and Adrian Bonnici (GP). Here are the Open results:

Semi-finalists: Kenneth Attard & Derek Conti.

GRAND PRIX: against Charles Aquilina 1-0

9. Grand Prix of South Africa
The tournament, basically scheduled on May 11, is postponed to a new date, which will be May 18 or 25.

10. Grand Prix of Greece
FISTF has finally decided to let Greece organize their Grand Prix on June 7 & 8.
For details, contact Chris Aggelinas at s.cotronei@email.it (mailto:s.cotronei@email.it)

12. Canada: Tournament report - The 2008 Globemaster Cup This was a fantastic tournament, which saw 7 players get together including the top ranked Canadian player Bruno Biasini and the 2nd seed Mark Meihuizen.  There were some hard fought games in the group stage, which carried over right to the final match.  Bruno and Mark met in the finals, where Bruno had incredible and flawless blocks, stopping Mark on every rush.  Bruno captured his 6th consecutive CSTFA title in Ontario, beating Mark 1:0 in a great match.  Special thanks goes to Steve Whitehead for organizing the event and Scott Andrew for hosting it at his house.  The atomsphere was friendly and I can honestly say this was incredibly fun.
This tournament also saw the registration of a new player, Nick January.
Thanks to all at the EOMSL for a great day, here are the results:
Final: Bruno Biasini - Mark Meihuizen 1-0
3 rd place: Steve Whitehead - Derek Arsenault 3-0

7. About the italian championship for teams (from the FISTF forum) I am going to sketch a short outline of the Italian championship for teams, which closed on Sunday, April 27th, in Rome.

The championship is structured in four leagues or "series": serie A, B, C and D. The former three are organized on a national level and count 10 teams each, while serie D is organized on preliminary regional rounds, allowing the best 10 clubs to partecipate to a final round taking place with the upper leagues. In all leagues, all teams play against each other over two days. Serie A and B are played over two full, separate rounds (first round was played in Pisa this February), while serie C and D only have one round.

So in Rome we had forty teams competing for primacy, out of about fifty-five active in the country. The winner of serie A is the Italian champion; in all other cases the best club is promoted in the upper league and the worst demoted in the lower one. Teams ranked 2nd and 3rd will enter play-off and those ranked 8th and 9th enter play-out.

In serie A Black-and-Blue Pisa proved itself the wonderboy of 2007-2008 once again. After a number of modest results in previous years, when the team barely escaped demotion, this season Pisa has seen his best player (Daniele Bertelli) triumphing in the World Championship for individuals, and the club itself was able to carry the day both in the Italian Championship and the Champions League!

Unfortunately, the competition in serie A suffered some disruption due to the fact that Eagles Napoli – winner of the previous edition and widely held the best Italian team, relying on players such as Massimo Bolognino and Vasco Guimares – played the first day of the February round with three players only, since Antonio Mettivieri missed his plane and arrived from Belgium just in the evening.

Reggio Emilia conquered an excellent second place and Perugia – usually Napoli's main contestant to the title – got third. Bologna Tigers surmounted Stella Artois (Milan) by one point in the race for the fourth place and achieved partecipation to the next Champions League. Bari and Palermo were demoted in serie B.

In serie B CCT Roma effortlessy secured their return into the premier league, while the Warriors Torino – an old and renown club led by Paolo Finardi, world champion in the Italian Veteran team – were unexpectedly defeated by an upstart Ascoli in the play-off, and so missed their return in serie A for the second year in a row. In the nether regions of the competition Fiamme Azzurre (Blue Flames, Rome's third club) and Catania were demoted.

In serie C Florence – a strong and well-known team – was finally able to seize promotion together with Cosenza. Ferrara was beaten at play-off, while Bergamo, considered a likely winner, was unable to go beyond average results.

In serie D both Modena and Imperia were promoted, the latter after beating Lazio (the fourth Roman team) in the play-off. Real Maremma – a Tuscanian club with strong ties to Spain – proved the revelation team scoring just one point below.

On the whole it was a splendid weekend of fair competition and closely-fought agonism, pitting many of the world's best players against each other and offering an impressive display, which didn't go unnoticed in the Italian media. Let's hope this fact shall attract new people to the hobby and encourage the movement's further growth.

... after this, is anybody tempted to join an Italian team?

In winter 2009 there is going to be a big game-event in Finland where different tablegames arrange their championship-tournaments in the same time, in the same place. Tablefootball has been asked to be one of them.
The biggest game in the event is going to be table-icehockey, no doubt about that. Every male in Finland knows the game and almost every male in Finland has tried it in some point of his life. It is a game that is played in many clubs and workplaces. I'm sure that table-icehockey tournament will attract a lot of people who are interested in tablegames in general. If we decide to take part in this event, we could reach exactly the right people, who might would be interested in tablefootball too.
Here is one link so that you can see what is table icehockey:

Besides table icehochey (and probably table football) there is going to be present for instance table curling.

1. Bologna: the final results
208 players and 41 teams were present in Bologna. We already mentionned that Joseph Borg Bonaci (Malta) defeated Massimo Bolognino thanks to a goal in the sudden death (3-2) in the open final but here are some other results. Juan Noguera (Spain) won the U19 tournament while U12 player Diego Tagliaferri won the U15 section after a 5-2 victory over Andrea Manganello.
Paolo Finardi won the veterans and Valentina Bartolini won the ladies section. Emanuele Lo Cascio from Sicily won the U12 tournament. Finally, TSC Falcons Athens became the first greek team to win a Major for teams.

2. Grand Prix of Greece (report by Chris Aggelinas) Weekend 7-8 of June we had our annual grand prix. It was the first international event in Greece since the Europa cup (due to the well known punishment). It was the quietest tournament in Greecefor many years, played in a really nice and sportsmanship atmosphere. We used the very same place and tables as the Europa cup. Unfortunately we had just one foreign player Jaime Silva from Portugal, (the other one Foti Labi is considered half Greek), but we had very good numbers of players in all the categories.

In Under 15 (it could be easily an under 12 category) 17 players took part.
We choose the format of groups of 4 (as we did in all the categories, in order to give as many games as we could). Giannis Vlassopoulos (9 years
old) from Highlanders won the tournament beating in the final his club mate Dimitris Koulosousas.

In the veterans we also had 17 participations. The world champion Aggelos Tsakiris was once again the winner. The Athens Kickers player won in the final (3-1) Giorgos Zavos from Pireas Lions.

In the open 64 players competed for the trophy. The Greek star Nicos Beis
(Roligans) smashed everyone in his way to the final. Then he won the Falcon Dionisis Koutis with a score 1-0. These two players were in the same group in the beginning of the tournament (and the score was exactly the same 1-0) Dimos Tsombanidis (Roligans) and Jaime Silva (Athens Kickers) reached the semis.

In the teams 12 teams (included a "Profis" non competitive team) took part.
The two grat favourites Falcons and Roligans reached the final. Roligans (as last year) won again this time with a clear victory 3-1.

3. Open of Murcia
Carlos Flores (Bologna Tigers) won the Open of Murcia for the 4th time in his career after he defeated Emilio Richichi (Italy) 2-1 in the Open final.
The tournament was very interesting with a good turnout (24 players in Open
category) and the presence of six players from Gibraltar. The event was played in a shopping mall and it was therefore very interesting to see many spectators showing interest for the game. Other winners were Juan Noguera (U19), Juan Carlos Granados (Veterans), Carmen Valverde (Ladies) and the Real Murcia (teams).

4. Future of Reggio Calabria
For its first edition, the Future of Reggio Calabria (Italy) attracted 27 players from six clubs. Salvatore Randielle, 792th in the world rankings, defeated Alfredo Soria, 516th, in a close final (3-2). Ernesto Gentile won the U15 and U12 section while Bruno Bagnato managed to win the veterans category when scoring a golden goal in the final against Leonardo Colella.

5. Open of Vancouver
The 2nd Open of Vancouver in Canada had a poor turnout of 8 players but many interesting games took place. Mark Meihuizen finally won the Open final after defeating host player Warren Creighton on shots.

6. Welsh Championships
Results of the Welsh Championships held on 8th June 2008.
Open category (all 12 games) played: 1 PHIL DACEY 36 ; 2 COLIN LEWIS 20 ; 3 DAVID LAUDER 17 ; 4 MARTIN EVANS 15 ; 5 WILLIAM HOLLIDAY 12 ; 6 CARL THORNE
11 ; 7 MATHEW ROWLEY 8.

Veterans category (all 10 games) played: 1 TOM TAYLOR 23 ; 2 JOHN LAUDER 19 ; 3 GARETH THOMAS 17 ; 4 RICHARD KING 14 ; 5 DAVID SAMUEL 11 ; 6 SAM WHITING 0.

8. USA: Maricopa Cup round 4 (by Simon Hutchinson) Saturday June 7's Maricopa Cup fourth round was the best attended in this competition's three year history.  We had nine players present and four pitches giving us the opportunity to play 29 games in our allotted time.

Wayne Smith finished top of the table with six wins, Steve Tucker claimed the runners up spot with five wins and one draw, and Simon Hutchinson finished in third with five wins.

An honorable mention must go to Munir Merchant who only lost one game, losing to Dominic Hutchinson.  He drew with Wayne Smith, Kevin Nieman and Steve Tucker, who are all players ranked higher than him.

Edgar Flores, Ian Sayer and Jason Mitchell made their debuts in this competition.  Jason won his first game since he started playing Subbuteo again after a "20-odd year" hiatus.

1. FISTF World Cup in Vienna
The World Cup took place last week-end in Vienna, Austria. Competitors from
18 countries were present and players competed in six categories on both days. As every year, the level of the competition was very high in the open category even if some of the "big names" of the circuit (Bennett, Targui, Nastasi, Bonaci, Koutis, Beis, Guimaraes, Mifsud,...) were not present this time. The tournament itself was full of surprises and as always, details made de difference in many games. In the samei-finals, Eric Verhagen defeated Wolfgang Leitner 2-1 while Saverio Bari defeated Valéry Dejardin on shots. In the final, the "golden goal" was scored after a few minutes in the sudden death and Eric Verhagen won the world title for the very first time in his career.

In almost all categories, the number 1 players of the world rankings proved their skill. Not only Verhagen but also Juan Manuel Noguera (U19) and Bjorn Kegenbein (U15) dominated their categories. in the veterans, Martijn Bom managed to win his second title ever after beating Stefano De Francesco in the final. Finally, the biggest surprise of the week-end came from the ladies section when Michaela Scherbaum won the final on shots against current champion Françoise Guyot.

In a the promotional U12 world cup, Diego Tagliaferri proved he was the favorite as he won the tournament without any possible contestation. Diego and the Italian team also won the team tournament on sunday.

In the other team categories, Italy was supposed to be the top favorite after their poor number of titles on saturday. The "Squadra Azzurra" proved to be the best nation in the world of table football by winning the Open (against a performing team of Belgium), the Veterans (in a close final vs
Spain) and the U15 section (on goal-average vs the Netherlands). The spanish U19 side dominated their final vs Austria while France took the honors in the ladies section.

5. Eric verhagen's interview
Eric Verhagen has been interviewed by our colleagues from www.subbuteonews.com (http://www.subbuteonews.com) Don't miss it!

6. Demo in Washington, DC
D.C. United (www.dcunited.com (http://www.dcunited.com)) played the LA Galaxy (aka, WHOOPED the LA Galaxy and David Beckham) yesterday in front of a crowd of 35,000 here at RFK Stadium. Was a great game/day of soccer between that and the Euro Final. We also managed to get a little table soccer demonstration in and many thanks to the Cranston trio and Paul Eyes for not only coming to the game but also being able to help demo the game to hundreds of people passing by.

Perhaps Daniel and Paul can comment more on how it went but from what I heard there were tons of kids stopping by to watch them flick and even trying their hand at it. Lots of flyers handed out and even some people who used to play and didn't know that the game was still played. Hopefully we'll get some new players out of it.

The demo was set up right next to the D.C. United team store where SuperFooty sets are available for purchase and about 10 of them have been sold through the store since April which is great and hopefully more people will pick up the game either at the store of through TablesoccerUSA or WorldTableSoccer as advertised on the flyers.

Some pics of the demo can be seen here:

Lainaa7. Current list of suspended players (updated)
* From a decision of the FISTF Board of December 1, 2007, the following player is suspended for 1 year (till December 1, 2008) of all FISTF
competitions: Kostas Kechris (GRE).

Jostain syystä olin saanut postitse vuonna 1995 FISTF:n uutislehdykän, joka tuli nyt sitten mökillä viimein ekaa kertaa luettua. Lehdestä löytyi kohta "Pelikiellossa olevat pelaajat". Listalla oli vain yksi nimi: Kostas Kechris (GRE), 1 vuosi pelikieltoa epäurheilijamaisesta käytöksestä vastustajia ja tuomareita kohtaan.

Aika vakuuttava kaveri.  :?

4. England: Alan Cook takes the championship title at the Worcester River Plate Severn Club in the UK (by Tim Lovell) A twenty league fixtures season comes to a dramatic finale as club newcomer and England legend Alan Cook takes the championship trophy... but former holder Paul Shearman takes the honours in the Worcester club's cup competition, narrowly beating Alan in a nail biting final.
Club chairman Tim Lovell had this to say. "It's been an honour to have Alan join our club, his experience and skill has had a massive impact on us all... we have all played a better game and gained a real grasp of the FISTF rules under his stewardship this season. With players like Paul Shearman and Alan Cook in the club it is no surprise we are attracting other players from the Midlands for next season"
And two new players are now poised to join the club in September as Worcester River Plate Severn TFC continue to build their reputation as a dynamic and exciting force of table football in the UK.

1. Limassol Satellites
The first two FISTF tournaments in Cyprus took place on July 6 & 13. 8 players were taking part but many more showed interest for the game as many Cyrpriots are still playing with the old rules and didn't feel ready yet to compete with FISTF rules. Paul Andreas (Cardiff TFC) won both Satellites and become the first Cypriot to win FISTF tournaments. Thanks to these tournaments, local clubs are being developped in Famagusta and Nicosia and hopefully many more tournaments will be organized in the future. FISTF is very happy with the recent developments on the island and we hope that Cyprus will become a strong table football nations in the next few years.

4. USA: Maricoba Cup round 5 (by Simon Hutchinson) The fifth round of this year's Maricopa Cup was played in Simi Valley, California, on Saturday 12 July.
Despite saying that luck was not with him Wayne Smith finished top of the table with four wins and one draw.  Second place Steve Tucker was the player who had held Smith to a goalless tie.  Simon Hutchinson finished in third place with three wins, beating the players who finished below him, and two defeats, losing to Tucker and Smith.  Kevin Nieman's victory in the last game of the day ensure that he would finish in fourth place and Munir Merchant finish in sixth.  Under 15 player Dominic Hutchinson finished in fifth place.

1. FISTF letter to the associations
A few weeks ago FISTF sent a questionary to all associations to ask a few questions about the need to organize a big meeting between the officials of the different national associations and the points to improve int he organisation of FISTF. Thossa Büsing (vice-president of FISTF) was in charge of collecting the answers. He sent us a report, which is as follows.

a) REPORT

Five out of 17 member nations and two out of eleven partner nations answered to the questionary. All in all only seven out of 28 questionaries were answered by the responsables of the FISTF member and partner nations.
Just a quarter.

It looks like FRANCE denied to answer it. On 4th of July FFFT-President LAURENT GARNIER asked FISTF Vice-President BÜSING surprising: "Why the board refuse to discuss around table with the nations?" He added some comments not to explain in more details and remarks his interest of the institution "he have create", to work in a democratic way and proposed a "big program" for a seminary.

A couple of days later a letter from ITALY written by FISCT President ENRICO CORSO reached the FISTF President COPPENOLLE. It contains only the request for a weekend meeting like in the questionary under point 1) is asked for. FISTF President COPPENOLLE asked for a list of points to discuss. No reply on this. Unfortunely ITALY missed to send answers to the questionary, too.

Answers by AUSTRIA and MONACO were advised, but they didn´t reach FISTF-Vice-President BÜSING.

Only five out of 28 nations adress the meeting in Brussels. The rest missed the chance to confirm the need of such a meeting.

Seven out of 28 nations agrees with the work of the current BoD. The rest missed the chance to comment displeasure.

Every contacted nation, the responsible persons had the chance to send in the answers right in time. They got a reminder as well. Probably the missing answers are caused of a low interest on international level or due to internal problems inside of the associations or the desinterest of their responsables. Perhaps not every responable takes the questionary as serious as it has to be. It is quite possible this is resulting out of the continously missing work of all FISTF General Secretaries over more than six years.

b) Recommendation

An urgent need for a special meeting in Brussels, asked in question 1, is indistinguishable. Nevertheless, in general such a meeting makes sense, due to the ideas collected under point 2. The light version of a special meeting in Brussels can be a change of views on a Friday Night at a Major Tournament in Mons or Amsterdam. It is desirable to place such a small meeting in 2009, latest in 2010.

The need of cooperation with FISTF BoD must be better transported to all responsables in FISTF Member- and Partner Nations.

The collected opinions under the points 2, 4 and 5 can be really helpful for the further work of the current FISTF BoD until 2010. It´s up to everyone in the Board to use it: the Communication Department, the Financal Department, the Marketing Department and the Sports Department. In any case the FISTF BoD is able to prepare an agenda for a however named meeting.

Finally, everyone who voted for a special meeting in Brussels (without a tournament on that weekend), shall still be motivated to bring in their talents and ideas to support the FISTF BoD and at least the whole community of Subbuteo Table Football Players.

c) The representatives of the member & partner nations received the full length version of the report.

2. FISTF Handbook
The FISTF Board is working on the last details for the new handbook. The file should be available for August 20 at the latest.

3. Stembert Open
The tournament website is now open at http://opendestembert.wifeo.com (http://opendestembert.wifeo.com)

4. Belfast Barbarians Subbuteo Club (by Kenneth Beggs) A successful season was completed with 13 players taking part in the 10th Ladder. Alistair Morrison topped the Swiss Ladder on goal difference, thanks to a last second goal by Stephen Rodgers against Kenny Beggs. Report & photos on http://www.nitfa.org.uk (http://www.nitfa.org.uk).
The club was pleased to welcome father & son, Nick & Kealan Pearson, who travelled all the way from Donegal, making a total of 27 players, ranging from Junior to Veteran agegroups, who have participated in the club during the course of the season. A tribute to the continual hard work by the organisers to develop the sport in Northern Ireland.
Robbie McMinn was also in attendance, displaying his range of teams and equipment for sale. See advertisement, also on http://www.nitfa.org.uk (http://www.nitfa.org.uk)

1. Europa Cup 2009
As a reminder, august 31 is the deadline for sending candidature files for the Europa Cup for clubs 2009. Candidatures should be sent to Heinz Eder at www.fistf.com (http://www.fistf.com) soon. You can also ask me a copy (there is an english version and a french version) by e-mail.
The main changes are as follows:
1) page 14 - member nations and partner nations There is a better definition of which nations are member nations and what are the advantages of being a member nation.

2) page 20 & 21 - Licensing and Nationality of players
- the first thing is that every national association should read the chapter about "Licensing and Nationality of players" very carefully.
- the second point is very important as it means an important change for the team events. The additional point is:

m) For the purpose of club team competitions, a player will be considered a 'foreign player' if:
- He is licensed to play table football by another national association different than the one that licensed his club (in effect, if he does not have his domicile in the country where his club is headquartered); and
- He or she has a legal citizenship different from that of the country in which his club is headquartered and has been selected in the last five years to represent the national association of the state of which he or she has the legal citizenship in line with j).

3) page 23 - age categories

4. FISTF on Facebook
Facebook is a growing social network and many subbuteo fans are already registered. Several groups were already dedicated to the beautiful game but on September 2, 2008 FISTF also launched their own group. More than 100 people already joined this group and many of them are people who didn't know about FISTF before. It looks like it will be a great tool to promote our international circuit of tournaments. Link: www.facebook.com (http://www.facebook.com)

5. Congratulations
The FISTF Board would like to congratulate Didier Van Renterghem and Jennifer for their wedding. The ceremony took place in Brussels on August 23.

6. FISTF form 01
The FISTF Board has already received the form 01 from the following
nations: Austria, Belgium, Canada, Cyprus, Spain, France, germany, Gibraltar, Hong Kong, the Republic of Ireland, Monaco and Wales. The other national associations should send the form ASAP to Zach Walker at lennyfoster@gmail.com (mailto:lennyfoster@gmail.com)) is now the contact person of the American Subbuteo Association.

9. New from Finland (by Kari Hakkarainen) The finnish table football association will take part in a big tablegames event in Finland, which will take place on 17th and 18 of January 2009. The mainorganizer of the event is the finnish table icehockey federation. They have good sponsors, and so taking part in this event will not cost anything to us.

On 30th of August was decided the finnish championship with the finnish rules. The final was Mika Tuuri - Marko Tiikkaja *0-0. The winner, Tuuri lived several years in Italy, but is now back in Finland. On the third place was Janne Liesivaara, another player who made comeback after many years. He dominated the game in Finland in the 90's.

10. USA: Western States Open
The Southern California Subbuteo Club hosted the last American Subbuteo Association tournament of the season with the Western States Open.  The WSO is the Major competition for the western region of the USA.  Wayne Smith won the Open competition for the third time beating Steve Tucker in a thrilling match, scoring the winner with just seven second left in extra time.  Ian Sayer won his second Mary Jane tournament in a row defeating Dominic Hutchinson in the final.  Dominic had better luck in the Under 19 tournament beating Adam Carlson in the final.  A full report and the results can be found on the Southern California Subbuteo Club's website at http://socalsubbuteo.com (http://socalsubbuteo.com)

4. New book about subbuteo
Paul Willetts is happy to announce that his book "TEENAGE FLICKS: MEMORIES OF THE SUB-BEAUTIFUL GAME", will be due for publication in early November. It consists of a mixture of jokey Subbuteo photos that pastiche sports photography. These are interspersed by brief reminiscences of Subbuteo, provided by a varied selection of well-known people, including Graham Taylor, Stan Bowles, Alan Mullery, Des Lynam, Will Self, David Baddiel, Arthur Smith and Alastair Campbell. Each reminiscence is accompanied by a collage photo showing that person as a Subbuteo figure. The book will be available in England via most branches of Waterstone's and Borders, as well as amazon.co.uk.

Incidentally, the book's publisher, Dexter Haven, an imprint of a small company called Black Spring Press, will also be producing packs of Subbuteo Christmas cards that might amuse our members.

9. Due to fact that PATFAP is a legal association with an existing board FISTF will communicate with the relevant Board Member (here: President)

Conditions:
1. Send the statutes of PATFAP to FISTF (already done !) 2. Send a membership list to FISTF (Negotiator Janus Gersie) latest 15 october 2008.
3. Send membership matters (procedure of becoming a member, yearly fees,
etc.) latest 15 october 2008 to Janus Gersie.
4. Send a Statement in lieu of an oath that PATFAP BoD is as declared (on the fax FISTF received) and that every listed name has been elected (latest
15 october 2008 to Janus Gersie)

Explanatory statement:
After the succesful fusion of PATF and PATFAP to PATFAP there is a governing body for tablefootball in Greece. FISTF needs one clear communication channel and a strong association that is capable to bring forward our beloved sport. Negotiations has shown that there is a lack of reliable information and sentiments. The way FISTF has been treated was sometimes full of disrespect. Therefore FISTF only grants a provisional membership. Along the dicussions and negotiations of the last months FISTF hasn't been able to find out what's right and what's wrong in Greece. This is not a failure of FISTF but of the acting people from Greece. Summarized there are still strong doubts about the whole situation in Greece. On the other side there has to be a clear way how to calm down and smooth ruffled feathers in Greece.

4. FISTF decision about Kostas Kechris's ban (by Janus Gersie) 1. Kostas Kechris's ban will be finished per 30 september 2008.
2. As per 1 october 2008 Kostas Kechris is allowed to play international tournaments 3. A probation period of two months (until 30 november 2008) is imposed.
During this period a new failure would lead to a considerable higher ban.

Explanatory statement:
FISTF decided to give power to PATFAP as the one and only recognised association of Greece. As a sign of greatness FISTF decided now to finish the ban of Kostas Kechris. FISTF wants PATFAP and all Greek players being strongly involved in the international circuit again. FISTF hopes that this decision will lead to a development of our beloved sport in Greece and will bring forward reunification of all Greek players.

3. Satellite of Knighton (report by Algy Taylor) Cardiff Bluebirds' Colin Lewis won Wales' first FISTF Satellite - held at Knighton Town Football Club - last weekend in a penalty shootout victory against teammate David Lauder.

Lewis won his group by the narrowest of margins, scoring a rare goal against David Lauder to tie the match 1-1, before beating Algy Taylor 2-1 in a closely fought game. Meanwhile, home player Tom Taylor endured a torrid time with heavy defeats against England International Martin Hodds and Scotsman Bob Ramsay.

Hodds won his group to progress directly to the semi-final, where he faced David Lauder. Lauder had struggled to see off Cypriot Paul Andreas in the barrage, but started to find his form against Hodds, notching up a 1-0 victory. The second semi-final also ended 1-0 to the Welsh player, with Colin Lewis victorious over Bob Ramsay to set up a Cardiff derby in the final.

Lewis went 1-0 up before David Lauder equalised with a second half goal.
After the goal the game petered out, and after an extremely uneventful extra time period the game went to penalties. Both players failed to score with their first three shots, but Colin Lewis eventually managed to break the deadlock and take the historic title back to Cardiff.

4. Dutch GP

7. Germany: Dominik Schulz wins the german cup (by Thossa Büsing) The German Cup took place in berlin on September 20th & 21st. New names found place in the honour winner list. The host club from Berlin, Sparta Spreeathen 74/82, beated TSG Rain 1970 (3-1) in the final. Rain was the title holder. It´s the first time this traditional german Subbuteo club wins a german team-title.
Dominik Schulz is the German Cup Winner 2008. Dominik and his teammate Dieter Sauerwein (both now from TSL Dortmund) reached the final after beating Björn Kegenbein and Marcus Tilgner (both from Berlin) in the semi-finals. In an amazing match Schulz managed to beat Sauerwein 3-2 in the extra-time (he came from behind from 0-2 five minutes before the end of the game). It´s the first time Domink Schulz wins the cup and the first time a U19 player wins the title.

2. FISTF Future of Frameries
31 players from 6 belgian clubs competed in this saturday's FISTF Future tournament of Frameries (Belgium. 15 players were dropped in the Open section while the 16 others played in the U15 section. Many surprises occured in the early rounds, in particular when Patrick Peltier (AS
Hennuyer) beat club-mate Philippe Mairesse in the quarter-final. In the semis, Peltier took the best on Renald Deloose (Templeuve) while Olivier Saffer (Rochefort) trashed Geert Leys (SC Flanders). In the final, Saffer and Peltier met for the second time of the dray. After a 1-1 draw in the group stage, the Rochefort player managed to beat the oldest player of the tournament (2-1) to win his first international title. In the U15 section, Anthony Franck (SC Flanders) was the only dutch-speaking player but he managed to beat all french-speaking players to win the title after a short victory against Quentin Wattiez (AS Hennuyer) in the final (2-1 sudden death). In the afternoon, the other categories were played. Jos Ceulemans (SC Flanders) won the veterans final against club-mate  Dirk Franck (3-0) while Jérémie Gosset (AS Hennuyer) won the U19 final on shots against Korneel Marchand (SC Flanders). Kenny De Schuyteneer (Brussels United) was clearly the strongest player in the U12 section. He beat Stephen Despretz (AS Hennuyer) on a clear 4-0 in the final. In the third part of the day, 7 teams played the team event on a knock-out format. In the final, SC Flanders managed to beat Templeuve United on goal-difference after a 2-2 draw. The SC Flanders team was formed by Jos Ceulemans, Dirk Franck, Dimitri schuermans and Geert Leys.This tournament was definately a grat day of table football for all the competitors as most players managed to play a lot of games in a friendly but competitive spirit.

3. Future of Limassol
13 players competed in the FISTF Future tournament in Limassol. This was the 4th FISTF ever on the island and definately the greatest tournament since Cuprus joined FISTF. New players took part to their first tournament and for the first time the even was played in 4 groups. After the group stage and the quarter-finals, the favorites met in the semis. Giorgos Zangylos needed a goal in the sudden death to beat Stefanos Kouratzis, a Greek player based in Cyprus, while Dimitris Parperis and George Vassiliades met in a derby between the two members of Nicosia TFC.
Vassiliades, who spends a big part of the year in California for work, won the game 2-1. In the final, Zangylos and Vassiliades couldn't make the difference after the game and the sudden death and finally, George Vassiliades took the trophy after a short victory on shots.

4. Open of Pireus (by Chris Aggelinas)
The tournament was organized mainly by the club of Pireas Lions. Several other players helped the project. The tournament was played in a luxury hall in a central hotel in the city center. In the U15 (even if most of the players are U12) we had 4 groups of 4. For now one player is by far the best but we have 3 or 4 good enough for the future. In the veterans 12 players were divided in groups of 3. Then we had the teams. 9 teams from 7 clubs were there. The home team Lions played with 3 teams and the C team was with only under 15 players. hopefully in this season we will have and an unofficial u15 team competition.
In the open we decide to proceed with the draw Saturday early in the afternoon. At this point we had 68 players. Unfortunately till Sunday morning we had some excused cancellations. The draw was published and so Sunday morning we had the dilemma either made another draw with the correct number of players (and that mean delay and possibly rumors about unfair
treatment) or keep the draw as it is with some groups of three. We decide to keep the draw as it was. The main cancellation was Triantafillou (no 4 of the tournament) and Stamatopoulos (no 17 of the tournament). Both of them were present Saturday and we accepted the excuse that they used. At the same time 18 players who didn't qualify from the groups played a plate competition. In the same competition we had one pore player who was residence in the hotel. He saw the advertisement and come to us to watch and later on he asked to play. Sunday September 28 we had the open category. Finally 61 players played in the category.
The great favorite nicos Beis (Roligans) once again was the winner in a Greek tournament. In the final he beat Spyros Hantzaras  (Falcons0 2-1.
Both of them succeed the same score in the semis 2-1 in sudden death against Giorgos Tsombanididis ans Velisarrios Fragakis (both Roligans).
The Aggelinas brothers, Dimos Tsombanidis and Lazaros Papakonstantinou completed the last eight.
At the same time in the plate competition (for those who didn't qualify from the groups) Kordantonopoulos Giannis (aek0 beat Leonidas Koutroumanos (pireas lions) in the final.

The main results:
Open final: Nikos Beis - Spyros Hantzaras 2-1
U15 final: Giannis Vlassopoulos - Dimitris Dimopoulos 5-1 Veterans final: Marcos Kapsambelis - Aggelos Tsakiris 1-3 Teams final: TSC Falcons Athens - Roligans Ilioupolis TSC 1-0

Dionisis Koutis - Dimos Tsombanidis 2-0
Spyros Hantzaras - Velissarios Fragakis 2-2 Kostas Triantafillou - Nikos Beis 2-2 George Koutis - George Tsombanidis 1-1

7. USA: Maricopa Cup R7 (by Simon Hutchinson) Saturday's seventh round of the Maricopa Cup saw Wayne Smith finish top of the table, saying this was some of the best Subbuteo he has ever played.
David Jensen, competing in his third tournament, caused an upset beating Kevin Nieman by a single goal. With the special Maricopa point system (win = 3, draw = 2, loss = 1) Munir Merchant finished in second place with one win and three draws. Kevin claimed third with one win and two draws. Simon Hutchinson finished in fourth, with the same number of wins and draws as Kevin, but played less games than the other players. We did shoot video during this competition, which will be added to the site when it has been edited.

Munir's third game on Saturday was his 100th. He is the eighth player in the Southern California Subbuteo Club to reach this milestone. This is all the more remarkable as he has only been playing for eight months.

12. Italy: S.S. Lazio football vs S.S. Lazio Table Football (by Stefano
Tagliaferri)
On Wednesday October, 15th S.S. Lazio Football players with their captain Tommaso Rocchi will join the players from S.S. Lazio Table Football in a great celebration of Diego Tagliaferri and Micael Caviglia's respectively golden and bronze medals achieved at the last FISTF table football World Championship in Wien. A white and blue happening that will host all our young players (and those who are less young too...) in a truly unforgettable afternoon ... who knows what surprises the matches between Rocchi and Tagliarri, or Pandev and Caviglia as well as all the others will bring about? It for sure will be an afternoon of great "lazialityness", great fun, great football and table football!!!

1. Open of Stembert
The Austrians of Mattersburg gave no chance to anyone to beat them in this year's FISTF Open of Stembert. 17 teams were competing and many of them had a very strong squad but the final was just another game between Mattersburg
(Austria) and Perugia(Italy). In this game, only Fabio Belloni managed to draw with Eric Verhagen while the three other Mattersburg players won their games. Markus Matzinger defeated Stefano De Francesco (1-0) while Erich Hinkelmann beat Martijn Bom (3-1) and Wolfgang Leitner took the best on Arturo Martínez (3-2). Some of the other top teams had disappointing results. SC Charleroi didn't pass the first round. The 4th top seed had only 3 players in Stembert and Charleroiended 3rd in a group of 4 after 2 defeats against SC Verviers and TFC Mattersburg B. Despite the presence of teams from 5 countries, the host nation managed to put 2 teams in the semi-finals. SC Stembert lost 3-1 to Mattersburg while Rochefort lost on a single goal (8 to 9) to Perugiaafter a 1-1 draw.

Open category
Valéry Dejardin was on fire on sunday when winning the first edition of the Stembert Open. The young player from Rochefort was the only one to prevent the Mattersburg squad to make a perfect week-end as he beat Karl-Heinz Haider in quarter-final (3-1) before winning against Markus Matzinger in the semi (on shots after a 2-2 draw) and Wolfgang Leitner in the final (2-1). Dejardin wins his senond tournament in a row, one week after winning the open of Bergkamen (Germany) and one month after winning the national tournament of Verviers. The other highlights of the tournaments were as
follows:
- Eric Verhagen's large victory on David Leroy in the last 16 round (9-0).
A week before, Leroy had beaten Verhegn in the quarter-final of the Open of Bergkamen.
- Wolfgang Leitner's win on Eric Verhagen in the semi-final. This was a rematch of the last world cup's semi-final. But now both players are clubmates.
- Markus Matzinger's come-back. After a short break, MArkus provd to be a very strong player again.
- 51 players were taking part in the Open category. Philippe Hipfinger (7) and Axel Donval (8) were the only seeded players to be out in the first round.

The ladies
6 of the world's top 10 players attended the Open of Stembert on Sunday.
The tournament (with 12 players from 3 nations) was really interesting and the level of the competition was high. In the group stage, Françoise Guyot
(n°1) and Elodie Bertholet (n°2) managed to end first of their groups but the other two seeds had more difficult moments than expected. Magali Doumont (n°4) ended in second position in a though group with Arielle Guyot and Audrey Herbaut while Victoria Büsing (n°6) drew both games against Sylvie Guyot and Annick Fraikin-Poncelet. In the quarter-finals, Céline Grandmougin had a though group but finally beat Sylvie Guyot on a single goal (3-2) before meeting Françoise Guyot in the semi. The world number 1 won her semi on a close 2-1 while Elodie Bertholet, the only Belgian in the last 4, equalized in the last 30 seconds before scoring a golden goal to beat Arielle Guyot. In the final, François Guyot scored an early goal but couldn't make the difference before the 18th minute. When the score moves to 2-0, Bertholet put Guyot under pressure but the french girl scored three other goals on counter-attacks to win the final on a clear 5-1.

The youth
Two of the rising stars in the FISTF circuit won another tournament this week-end in Stembert. In the U19 section, Jerrel Van Keimpema from the Netherlands proved he's one of the most talented players in the category after winning the final against Michaël Denooz (Belgium) on a clear 5-2. In the U15 tournament, Antonio De Francesco from Italy won the tournament after beating his last 2 opponents on the same score. In th semi, Stefano's son beat Bryan Spiroux 2-1 before beating Jérémie Gosset (2-1) in the final. In the U12 section, only 3 players were taking part and Keny De Schuyteneer beat brother Bryan on an amazing score of 7-6.

The veterans
Stefano De Francesco won the re-match of the world cup final against Martijn Bom. Both players met a couple of times in the last few months but this time, the situationw as very different as both players now play for the same club of ACS Perugia. If Bom is the reigning world champion, De Francesco won the Stembert Open final on a clear 5-0. The level of the tournament was quite interesting with 24 different players from 6 countries. Some "younger" veterans like Jean-Pierre Genart and Richard Boulanger were playing their first competition in this category while Alphonse Paulis, a former belgian international (in the early 80's) was playing his first big tournament for years. The only surprise in the group stage was Charles Goset's victory on Thorsten Büsing to take the group's first stage but in the barrage round, Büsing managed to qualify for the quarter-finals. Finally, René Bolte and Erich Hinkelmann also managed to reach the semi-finals but Bom and De Francesco were really too strong this sunday.

7. Argentina: San Marino wins in Rosario (by Claudio Miscia) Rosario, October 2008- It's over! After a nine-months competition, the first edition of the "Serie A Rosario" is over. In the new place of the Asociación Subbuteo Rosario 2008 the last match was played between Boca Juniors and San Marino. On the first half San Marino scored one goal making the "goleada" on the second half: 5-0, until Boca Juniors could score its only goal, on a penalty kick.
9 months, 14 players, 26 rounds, 182 matches (in a home-and-away double match "everyone-against-everyone" tournament), 460 goals scored: we doubt whether something similar has ever been played evereywhere!
Excelent work of the Directory Committee of ASR08, which organized the prize-giving ceremony by inviting all 14 participants to the tournament, along with their families and journalists. San Marino (Claudio Miscia) took the golden medal, in addition to the official association shield, which he won the right to carry sewn on his shirt during next sporting season. Plate medal for Milan (Gustavo Di Giannantonio) and bronze to Roma (Benedetto Colarossi). In the categories; Claudio Miscia won the Veterans' medal, Marco Miscia (Fiorentina) the Under 12 one, Gustavo Di Giannantonio the residual "mixed group".
As for the ASR08 statutes, the final placing table also defines the official team of the Association for next season: Claudio Miscia (captain), Gustavo Di Giannantonio, Benedetto Colarossi, Marco Miscia and, as a reserve, Fabrizio Castello (Newell's Old Boys). All the 5 also automatically qualify to the next Serie A, together with the 6th, Cosimo Muci (Lecce). All other players will have to play qualifying games after the Rosario Cup (October 25th) to get the 4 free places in the Serie A.
Next year, in order to have all willing players on the field, a second division, Serie B, will be organized as well.
San Marino campeon rosarino 2008Among guests of the match, there also were
journalists: San Marino-Boca Juniors (Paolo Ferrara) has been observed by Radio Corazón and the best spots were put on the air on next Sunday; and -as San Marino is the name of a quarter in town Funes, where Claudio Miscia
plays- an article celebrating the victory came out on Funes newspaper "La Verdad Funense". San Marino dominated the Serie A 2008, winning 22 matches and drawing 4, with no lost matches; it scored 69 goals (best attack) and only took 10 (best defence). Nevertheless, the greatest "goleada" was the 7-0 scored by Newell's Old Boys against Ascoli (Roberto Rosati) at the 22nd round.
Results, pictures, statistics, prizes awarded on the first Serie A Rosario, as well as many videos of goals scored, are published on the Association's
site: www.asr08.com.ar (http://www.asr08.com.ar)

1. Europa Cup for clubs
Black and Blue Pisa make the double: 24 teams competed in this year's europa Cup in Oldham, England. If many surprises happened over the week-end, the issue of the week-end was not really surprising as the boys from Pisa (Italy) lifted the trophy for the second time in a row. The Italians beat the spanish team of Real Murcia on a clear 3-1 in the final.
Semi-finalists were rather unexpected teams. Bologna lost to Pisa while the Belgians of SC Stembert lost in the sudden death to Real Murcia. More details are available from the FISTF blog and the tournament website.

2. Maltese season kicks-off
The first tournament of the maltese season took place last week with 28 players taking part. 13 players were competing in the open category and int he semi-finals, Mark Gauci beat Massimo Cremona on a easy 3-0 while Hansel Mallia beat Charles Aquilina (2-0).

Garza defeated BUSL95 teammate Lenny Foster 4-3 on shots in the final after a 2-2 tie in regulation. Both Garza and Foster topped their groups going into the semifinals. BUSL95's Jonathan Smith and Eddy McLane bowed out in the semifinals, with Utah MF's Brian and Paul Barnes both failing to make it out of the group stage.

5. Japan first tournament soon?

7. Finland: Alcatraz-tournament in periphery (by Kari Hakkarainen) One of our Finnish Championship ranking -tournaments (with FISTF-rules) was held in an rather exotic place, about 300 km north from Helsinki in a small village called Naaraji. The venue was located in the middle of forest right next to a beautiful lake - and the local jailhouse. Only 8 players participated, but we had some exiciting games and good time anyhow. After the games we went to sauna, swam in the 5 celsius degree water, have some drinks and sang some karaoke. Finnish madness ? Probably. No criminals were involved and we didn't see any jailbreaks. Maybe next time The final was between Sisu TFC players: Teemu Sihvola - Juho Sihvola 5-1 Full results: http://www.subu.fi/smkisat/SM-ranking_FISTF_251008.htm (http://www.subu.fi/smkisat/SM-ranking_FISTF_251008.htm)
Our next tournament with FISTF-rules will be on 15th of November. Then we'll decide who will be the Finnish champion 2008

3. Italian, Belgian and Dutch share the trophies in Brussels (by Philippe
Hipfinger)
Valéry Dejardin strikes again at the GP of Brussels The GP of Brussels was played last weekend in the hall of honour of King Baudouin Stadium and the organizers knew that this prestigious venue could attract the medias.  A few invitations were sent to them and the least we can say, is that the result of these efforts paid off! The top news was the presence of Luc Matton, well known sport reporter of RTL Tvi on the Saturday! Their report with interview of Laurent Coucke and Valery Dejardin was broadcasted on the 19h00 news which is seen by hundreds of thousand of people!  On Sunday the local flemish TV Brussel was also present and RTBF Radio also covered the event by making interviews of Franz and Philippe Hipfinger as well as Laurent Coucke. In the newspaper "La Capitale" a few articles could be found as well!

Well, this was for the press coverage, but a GP was also played on both days, and on Saturday the team of Stella Artois Milano was the best among the 26 registered ones! The Italians beat in the final the number One ranked team in the World, the Austrians of TFC Mattersburg.  SC Charleroi and the Torino Warriors were the semi-finalists!   On Sunday, the individual competition was played and 153 players showed up!  In the Open Category, the first surprise was the elimination of Gil Delogne as early as in the last 32. Gil who expected to achieve a great result in his hometown club was very disappointed to lose against ex teammate Robbert Lenz.
Robbert Lenz lost finally in the quarters to Sami Targui and in the semi final 3 belgian players were present!  Christophe Dheur from SC Stembert played a huge match at this stage and knocked out World Champion Eric Verhagen!  Valery Dejardin beat the winner of the Major of Mons, Sami Targui in the other semi final and went on to beat "titeuf" in the final.
Valery Dejardin won already his third FISTF tournament of the new season!
At the Masters of Madrid in less than 2 weeks, he will certainly be one of the man to watch! In the Veteran Category, World Champion Martijn Bom kept his title and beat the Maltese Jo Mifsud in the final! For the Maltese player, it was his first ever participation in a Veteran Competition!
Frédéric Perdaens, the World Ranking Officer, made a come back after a break of 3 years and a half and accomplished a great result by reaching the quarter final in such a strong competition!  In the U19 competition, the 2 favourites reached the final and Jerrel Van Keimpema beat German Dominik Schulz 2-1.  The young Dutch from Mvv Rijnmond showed again that he is one of the player who improved the most in the recent year.  In the U15 Category, it was a all italian final between the 2 players from Lazio Roma, and Diego Tagliaferri defeated Micael Caviglia. And in the Ladies, it was a all belgian final, dominated by Elodie Bertholet from Templeuve against Magali Doumont from SC Temploux!
To be noted that even if Brussels seems to be a popular tournament, it won't be in the FISTF calender in 2009-2010.

4. A moment of full emotion during the GP of Brussels (by Philippe
Hipfinger)
To celebrate its 40 years of existence, the club of Brussels SC was looking to make something special. After mature consideration, the best thing the club could do, was to honour Franz Hipfinger. Franz discovered the subbuteo thanks to his best friend Jean-Pierre Dejoncker in 1960. From that moment on, he never stopped to play but mostly never stop to organize competitions, write reports and revues, look for new players,...Franz Hipfinger has been president of the belgian Federation during many years and was also partof the FISTF Board in its early days. It was time to pay tribute for all his hardwork during almost a half of century! Frédéric Perdaens, who was member of the Brussels SC a long time ago, was invited to give this hommage to Franz and gave him the cup of the fair-play and a travel voucher for his next holidays as a well deserved surprised present!

Sylvie Guyot beat Céline Grandmougin in the ladies section while Paul Naszalyi beat Lucie Le Téno (1-0) in the U12 tournament.

8. South Africa: Johannesburg Table Football Club merges with Panorama Sports Club (by Jason Kennedy) Due to the growth and rebirth of table football in South Africa, a decision was made by the Westrand arm of The Johannesburg table football club to merge with one of the largest amateur football clubs in South Africa, namely Panorama Sports Club. The club boasts great facilities and is very central for our current members and new 2009 members to join. Hall, bar, toilets, full kitchen, covered outside area and parking. Panorama's football section has 500 + players from Under 6 to veterans and many youngsters and senior players/ parents will be and have already shown an interest in joining our ever growing table football club.

9. USA: California State Championship (by Simon Hutchinson) Sunday was the second annual California State Championship, hosted by the Southern California Subbuteo Club.  Kevin Nieman reached his first major final beating second seed, Steve Tucker, in the semi final.  Wayne Smith beat Kevin in the final to retain the title he won last year. Edward Nathan won the Mission Trophy, with Dominic Hutchinson losing in the final for the second year in a row. The Under 19 Sierra Trophy final was a repeat of last year's final. This year Adam Carlson beat Dominic Hutchinson by a single goal, in the best game these two players have played against each other.

1. FISTF Masters in Madrid
The 6th FISTF World Masters tournament was held last week-end in Madrid (Spain). 12 of the world's top players were competing in a great spirit and with a lot of positive energy. Many games were close and in the group stage, nobody really managed to be on top. Both Massimiliano nastasi and Simone Berteli came on top of their groups with 9 points (2 wins and 2
draws) while Valéry Dejardin, 3rd of group, was out of the event without having lost any single game. In the semi-finals, Bertelli beat Carlos Flores on shots after a 0-0 draw while Massimiliano nastasi beat current world number 1 Eric Verhagen on a clear 7-3. In the final, Nastasi and Bertelli offered a great show to all spectators. Nastasi finali won his 2nd title in the Masters after beating Bertelli 3-2.

FISTF would like to thank organiser Piero Capponi for managing to stage a beautiful tournament and to attract a lot of medias. We hope that the Masters will help the spanish association to recruit many more players.

2. Total soccer launch and table football marathon The Masters in Madrid was not only a tournament for 12 players of the world's elite. Piero Capponi's company was also launching a new table football game called "Total soccer". Total soccer is sold under licence of Real Madrid and will therefore attract the attention of many football fans.
Hopefully there will be thousands of new players in Spain in the next few months. As a big surprise for the event, 2 of the Real Madrid players (one of them was Michel Salgado) were present for the ceremony, attracting the attention of the medias.

Before the Masters tournament, Total Soccer organized a very big table football marathon with 4 top spanish players playing a game for 48 hours non-stop. Juan Carlos Granados (150 goals), Miguel Angel Heredia (117), José Ros (129) and Miguel Angel Lopez (244) scored more than 600 goals in
48 hours. Once again, congratulations to all involved players and Piero Capponi for organising such a great event.

3. Challenger of Frameries
28 players competed in the Challenger of Frameries (Belgium). Johnny Beaufays (SC Flanders) took an easy win and became the first player to win
2 Challengers. He beat Richard Boulanger (SC Stembert) in the final. All categories were played as there were a lot of young players and winners were as follows: Sabria Bouzakhti (ladies), Patrick Peltier (veterans), David Vantassel (U19), Jérôme Vandevenne (U15), Kenny De Schuyteneer (U12) and AS Hennuyer B (teams).

4. Scotland: A future player is born
Thomas Anthony Robert Wright was born last week to proud parents Max and Susan Wright. Mother and Son are doing well. FISTF would like to send their best wishes to the happy family!

5. Greece: Greek league for clubs (by Chris Aggelinas) The first day of the greek league was played last week-end. We had 10 teams from 8 clubs. That means that we have 2 "B" teams. This is happening for the last time. For the season 2009-10, it is going to be something very familiar with the Belgian model. 10 teams meet each other twice in three different days. Day 1 each team played 6 times, refereed 3 times and rested
1 round. A small conclusion is that Atlas, Falcons and Roligans have the absolute record 6 games, 6 wins and leading the race with 18 points. The rest of the teams are AEK (9), Athens Kickers (9), Mirmidones (4) and with
2 teams Highlanders (4 points and 1 point) and Lions (6 points and 0).

6. France: Beauzelle GP
Jean-Marie Amberny (Issy) won the first "Grand Prix" of the french GP circuit. The event was held in Beauzelle, near Toulouse, and attracted around 30 players from all around France. Amberny beat teamate Emmanuel Gorgette in the final while Thomas Ponté (also from Issy) was third.

7. Italy: Christmas tournament in Milan
The Christmas cup will be held in Milan soon. It's one of the oldest tournaments ever. Who are going to be the successor of Stefano De Francesco
(2007 winner) and Pisa (2007 team winner)?

1. Grand Prix of Berlin
63 players rom 8 countries competed in the FISTF Grand Prix of germany in Berlin. Günther Bamberzky (from TSC Wiener Neustadt, Austria) was on fire as he managed to win three titles. Bamberzky won the Open final against Wolfgang Leitner but he also won the veterans final against Robbert Thoen.
Bamberzky and his teamates of TSC Wiener Neustadt also won the team event after a close final against TSC Stella Artois Milano. In the other categories, the winners were Björn Kegenbein (U19), Marcel Kwiatkowski (U15), Giuditta Lo Cascio (Ladies) and Giannis Vlassopoulos (U12).

2. Third International Open of Buenos Aires (by Philippe Hipfinger) Claudio Miscia, the man of the weekend !
The third International Open of the Argentinian Capital was played this weekend in an excellent spirit of friendship and
16 participants took part in the event. The good news is that the Buenos Aires Table Soccer Club managed to find a new place in a sport club of the Capital where different sports and activities are practiced.
During the tournament, many spectators came to discover the game and a pitch was at the disposal of the people who wanted to try the game !
Hopefully, some of them will join the BATS soon.  As for the competition, in the Open Category, Philippe Hipfinger from Brussels SC managed to win his third consecutive title in Buenos Aires by beating in the final the number One Argentinian player, Patricio Echevarietta from the local club of the BATS. It was a close a final with a final score of 2-0 for the Belgian player. Anyway, the big upset of the weekend was the defeat of Philippe in the group stage where he was beaten by the Italian player from AS Rosario, Claudio Miscia 1-0.  Claudio eventually reached the semi final in Open and also won on Sunday the Veteran Category played only by four players.
Another news is that Vincenzo Tirocchi, an Italian currently based in the city of Cordoba in Argentina will move to Montevideo at the end of the year. He will try with his familly to launch a first club in Uruguay and maybe organize a first FISTF event in this country next year.

3. First Gibraltar Open (report by Keith Sheriff) The first Gibraltar table soccer FITSF (Federation International Table Soccer Federation) approved Open tournament was held for the first time in Gibraltar on the 29th and 30th November at the Central Hall. A total of 24 players battled it out in four different events, the U12, Veterans, Teams played on the Saturday and the main event the Open which was held on Sunday.
Emilio Murciano (Real Murcia) was victorious beating his team mate Juan Carlos Granados (Real Murcia) in the final on a penalty shoot-out (3–2) after a tantalising but exciting (0–0) draw. 24 players of all ages competed in this tournament including four foreign players: 3 from Murcia (Real Murcia) while Steve Hawkins represented the English club English Premier League (EPL). The highlight of this competition no doubt centred on the match that drew the competitions oldest player, 49 year old Peter Sardeńa and the youngest 10 year old Kyle Tellez, a difference of almost 40 years! The other highlight was no doubt the match between local players Guy Palmer and John Field. John dominated the first half leading (3–1) but in the second Guy battled back pulling a goal back with a superb running ball only to see John respond with another traditional John Field special to lead (4–2). However with time running out Guy decided to launch himself in an all out attack and with two well atken goals managed to draw the match with less than two minutes to go (4–4). The ten minute extra time period was clearly dominated by Guy Palmer who finally managed to squeeze the ball past John Field's defence from a well taken corner. (5–4) the final score.
In the semis, Juan Carlos Granados beat Steve Hawkins (1-0) while Emilio Murciano beat local player Guy Palmer (4-2). In the final, Murciano won on penalty shots after a scoreless match. Granados also won the veterans tournament while Kyle Tellez won the U12 section. Finally, Real Murcia came on top of the team event after three wins in the group stage.
The event was inaugurated by a friendly international between Gibraltar and Spain held at St. Anne's Main Hall on the Friday evening. Gibraltar 'A'
drew 2-2 with Spain in the first round of matches in which four players from each side play against each other on different tables and their points and scores combine. Gibraltar 'B' lost 3-1 against Spain in the second round of matches.
Overall the event was characterised throughout by the sporting nature in which the games were held. The camaraderie between the players was superb with the four foreign players expressing their admiration for the hospitality and friendly nature of the tournament. The GTSA would like to thank Juan Carlos Granados from Real Murcia FC for his expertise and assistance throughout the tournament in technical points and rule changes.
Juan Carlos is a dear friend of this Association and it must be mentioned that he personally delivered and supported the GTSA's application for full membership to FITSF world governing body.
Our thanks must also go to our sponsors; Gibtelecom, D & H Ceramics, Valmar Pharmacy, Monteverde & Sons Ltd, Autosport, Redwood and the International Police Association (IPA) for their individual generous contributions. The GTSA would also like to express their sincere and deeply appreciated thanks to the Hon. Minister for Sport and Leisure Mr. Edwin Reyes for his superb support and assistance throughout particularly in his commitment for Government to offer to supply the materials to build the eight superb pitches and support boxes for the event free of charge. The GTSA would like to also thank and congratulate the staff and apprentices of the Gibraltar Training Centre for the superb workmanship in designing and assembling of the pitch frames and boxes. Without all of the above this tournament would not have been possible.
Finally I would like to thank my committee, Manolo Martinez, Alan Crisp, Peter Sardeńa, Guy Palmer, Lawrence Alvarez, Gerard Laguea and everyone else who contributed in any way in ensuring the Gibraltar's first international Open competition was a complete success.

4. South African Open Championships (report by Clifford Graaff) The second South African Open was held on Sunday 30th November 2008 at Panorama Sports Club in Roodepoort. A very good field of 18 entrants had a truly great day which has been described as the best ever tournament yet on the South African circuit.
Current South African champion and number 1 seed, Clifford Graaff,  was beaten by Jason Kennedy in the quarter final by two goals to one after extra time. The other quarter finals all went to form with Sean Morgan defeating Shane Graaff by two goals to one. Reza Bodiat accounted for junior Richard Graaff by the only goal. Harold Silber beat his nephew and junior, Max Silber by the odd goal in five.
The semi finals saw Jason Kennedy continue his great form by defeating Reza Bodiat in a very tight game by one goal to nil. Sean Morgan and Harold Silber dished up the most exciting game of the tournament which was only concluded on penalty flicks after both players shared a six-goal thriller in normal time. Extra time could also not break the deadlock. Sean proved to have nerves of steel by equalising in the last minute of normal time after being down by three goals to two. He also had to convert his las penalty flick to force a second round of penalty flicks. The final saw Jason Kennedy, who must be the most improved player this year in South Africa, against favourite Sean Morgan. The final proved to be a very tight affair with Sean mounting the early pressure which paid off when he scored the opening goal after great work down his left flank. Jason tried to respond but Sean's defence proved to be resilient and he caught Jason on a counter attack after Jason left a gaping hole in the middle of his defence and slotted his second goal. This prompted Jason onto the attack and a brilliant through ball from his own half and a  direct flick saw the ball canon into the top corner of the net. This goal has been described as the best goal ever seen in a local tournament and also rightly earned Jason a special prize for goal of the day at the prize giving. The second half started off at a cracking pace with both players trying to seize the iniative. Sean then capitalized on a error by Jason and slotted his third goal after an intricate and precise movement emanating from his own half.
Jaso countered almost immediately and lay siege to Sean's goal. The pressure paid off just before full time when a sublime through ball from just outside the shooting area and a neat one-two saw Jason score his second goal much to the delight of a big and boisterous crowd. Jason tried for the equaliser,however Sean absorbed the pressure and deservedly secured his first FISTF title. By winning the tournament Sean has also taken over the number one ranking in South Africa.
In the junior final Yasser Bodiat accounted for his older brother in a tense game with the winning goal being scored midway through the second half. This is also the first FISTF title that Yasser has captured and he completed a great day by accounting for both junior favourites in the semi and final - well done !!!!!

The South African Table Football Association is also proud to announce that we now have a new permanent home base for all future tournaments - namely Panorama Sports Club.  Panorama Sports Club was found in 1986 and boasts arguably the biggest soccer section for both junior and senior players with almost 600 registered soccer players in Johannesburg. The Johannesburg Table Football Club will now re-locate to Panorama Sports Club and affiliate to the main club as an independent sub-club. During the course of the tournament there were many interested spectators and the final was witnessed by the biggest ever crowd for a table football event in South Africa. Many people were re-acquainted with the game and membership at our forthcoming club evenings looks set to increase dramatically. Once again commemorative soccer trophies were awarded to all our juniors with the following two special awards also being made :
Goal of the Tournament : Jason Kennedy (in the final vs Sean Morgan) Chairman/Janus Gersie Award : Harold Silber (encompassing the spirit of table football).

5. FISTF.com calendar page

6. One more tournament in Cyprus
There will be a Challenger on the 21st of December. The contact person for the tournament is George Zangylos. His email is http://www.ctp-gallery.co.uk/FISTF2008/ (http://www.ctp-gallery.co.uk/FISTF2008/)

8. Scotland: the Clairbois Cup
Congratulations to Dave Baxter on his 2nd circuit event win of the season.
Dave won his four games to finish top of the swiss system ladder. 13 players were competing and Stephen Bennett is 2nd (9 points). Then come Gareth Christie, Jim Law and Richard Pepper with 7 points.

9. Northern Ireland: Dunmurry National Open (by Eoin Adams) It was a good day for Kenny Beggs, who won both the Open and Veteran Finals against Gary Moore and Stephen Rodgers respectively. Peter Morrison beat John Hughes in the Under-19 Final and was runner-up to Mark Farrell in the Plate.
The Open was a tough event and Beggs was made to work hard for the title.
The No.1 seed was fortunate to get through his group, following a 1-1 draw with Stephen Rodgers and a 0-0 draw with Mark Farrell. Rodgers and Farrell also drew 1-1 with each other, which left all three players on two points and zero goal-difference. Rodgers topped the group, having scored more goals but Beggs and Farrell were equal and so required a shoot-out to determine who qualified in 2nd spot. After five shots each, they were still level at 3-3 but Farrell missed his first sudden-death shot and Beggs scored his to advance to the quarter-final where he would meet John Moore.
The pressure was immediately on Beggs again, as Mooretook an early lead but Beggs equalised in the 2nd half and scored a golden-goal in extra time. A single goal was enough to beat Joe McRoberts in the semi-final, while the Final was a similar story, with a goal in the first minute clinching a 1-0 victory against Gary Moore.
The tournament produced some interesting matches. In Group B, No.2 seed, Barry Spence failed to qualify, following a 0-0 draw with Eoin Adams and a
2-3 defeat to Joe McRoberts. Adams qualified with another 0-0 draw against McRoberts but was involved in the best match of the day in his quarter-final against Gary Moore. He led 3-2 with less than a minute remaining but Moore equalised and went on to score the golden-goal to win
4-3 after extra-time.
Stephen Rodgers will also be pleased with his performance, reaching the Open semi-final and the Veteran Final.
The day was rounded off with an International Friendly between Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, which the Southern lads won 2-1, giving them their first victory over the North since the 2004 UK & Ireland Internationals in Preston.
Thanks to everyone for taking part, and also to Laura, for taking photos for the website, and helping me co-ordinate the fixtures, not an easy job considering the Dublin lads turned up 3 hours later than expected, due to traffic jams caused by Christmas shoppers.

10. ETF archives
Hello to all, as you probably know, I spent a lot of time in the last few months to collect the archives of the FISTF tournaments played since 1993.
After a few months of researches, I managed to find many interesting datas and I compiled quite a lot of files (you can see them from www.subbuteonews.com (http://www.subbuteonews.com)). Right now, my italian friend Gianbattista Fontanella has encouraged me to compile a file with the ETF archives. We think it's very important to compile some results so that they won't be lost in the future. After all, ETF was the basic of FISTF. Gianbattista sent me some stuff from the 60's and 70's and now we're going to try to find more. If you have any idea how to help, you can get a copy of the first ETF archives file, which is a first draft of our work. We'd be more than happy to hear from you. Sometimes, some small corrections can help (like missing first names or countries). Well, if you can help, we'd be very grateful.
Please note that once the ETF files are done, we'll start a new project with the FISA events.
The full results of theEuropean championships 1964, 1966, 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1971 and 1972 are already compiled. If you have more results, you cans end them by e-mail or by fax at ++32-56-488742.

Main approach will be to build up a tournament calendar for the remaining season and to prepare elections latest next summer. EVERY greek player is welcomed and kindly asked to register with the UNION.

1. The greek satellite for Stamatopoulos On sunday, December 21st the second Greek satellite of the season was played in Ilioupoli. A total number of 45 different players took part and they were divided as 12 under 15, 6 veterans and 27 open. The big surprise came in open. Dimitris Stamatopoulos (Atlas) was the winner as he beat in the final 2-1 the even biggest surprise of the day Periklis Dimopoulos (Pireas Lions). Both of them eliminate in the semis the two favorites of the day Lazaros Papakonstantinou and Nikos Naskos. The rest of the last 8 were Vasilis Koutsobinas, Christos Archimandritis, Giorgos Sklavounos and Nikos Pappas. In the under 15, 12 players took part. Dimitris Koulossousas was the winner, Petros Theologos (Roligans) reached the final and the Athenskickers team mates Manos Kapsabelis and Anastasios Maroulas stayed in the semifinals. In the veterans, just 6 players participated. Giorgos Aggelinas won the final 1-0 against his team mate Marcos Kapsabelis. Chris Aggelinas and Leonidas Koutroumanos reached the semis.

(Report by Chris Aggelinas)

2. Satellite in Frankford
Only 4 players were present for this tournament held in Canada. Steve Whitehead defeated Bruno Biasini in the final (2-0). As there were less than 6 players, the tournament will not count for the FISTF World rankings.

3. First title for Zangylos
George Zangylos won his first international title on sunday at the Limassol tournament. Kostas Kalopsidiotis was the losing finalist while Marcos Kalopsisiotis won the consolation match for the third place. 13 players from the two Cypriot clubs (Famagustaand Nicosia) were taking part.

4. Templeuve tournament
57 players attended the Templeuve national tournament held on December 20.
Christophe Dheur (Stembert) beat Justin Leroy (Rochefort) on sudden death (5-4). Leroy had beaten world champion Eric Verhagen in semi-final (2-1).

5. Major of Amsterdam
Robbert Thoen & Marco de Bruin are sending us this short message: "Hello Subbuteo Friends, We have the pleasure to invite you to participate at the Major of Amsterdam at 4/ 5 April 2009. The Major takes place now in Amsterdam South-East. Its easy to reach to the center of Amsterdam with the underground. We are playing at 40 brand new tables (world cup pitches) from Astroturf.

6. Argentina becomes FISTF full member
A good surprise came for Christmas time in the FISTF community. The argentinian association decided to join FISTF as a full member nation. The full membership status of the association will allow Argentina to run a Grand Prix in Rosario in May 2009 and plans are under way to organize a national championship, which would take place in Rosario in March.

7. FISA and ETF results
The two new books edited by the FISTF department of archives are under way.
We are collecting the results of the old FISA and ETF championships. For the ETF results, we are now looking for the full results of the European championships 1978 to 1989 as well as the european championships for nations 1967, 1968, 1969, 1983, 1987 and 1991.
For the FISA results, we look the details of the World Cup 1970, 1974 (group stage only) and the results of the European championships 1996 held in London. Thanks for your help. If you want a copy of the drafts, don't hesitate to ask.

First of all, FISTF would like to wish you the best wishes for the end of the year. We hope that the Christmas time will be a period of peace for you and your family.

1. 2008, a good year for FISTF
For several reasons, 2008 was a good year for FISTF. Our association managed to increase the number of active players on the international scene and tournaments were held for the first time in new countries. Gibraltar and Cyprus were the new hosts of FISTF tournaments in the last season, bringing the total of host nations to 28 (*). Japan will become the 29th country to host a tournament in January and therefore the future of FISTF looks promising. We now hope to attract more nations and hopefully our contacts in Uruguay, Malaysia, Hong Kong, South Korea, Israël and Switzerland will be positive. We also hope to see the come-back of tournaments in Ireland and Australia in the near future.

As for the quality of tournaments, we also have reasons to be happy. The standards of organisation are increasing and superb events were held in several places. Tournaments in the USA, Argentina, Italy and Spain had improved standards and events in Finland, Norway and Belgium (the Brussels
GP) had also very high standards. The World Cup in Austria attracted a lot of players from 18 different countries and first North American continental cup was held in Washington, DC. Also, the FISTF Masters in Madrid was successful with a brilliant organisation by Piero Capponi who managed to involve some of the Real Madrid players for the tournament.

2009 will also be full of surprises as the South African association has plans to host the first African Nations Cup in Johannesburg and the World Cup in the Netherlands is also expected to beat all records of participation.

The quality of material has also been improved over the last few months.
Zeugo, Soccer 3D, Stefan Corda, Flickmaster, Total Soccer, Extreme Works,... are bringing a lot of great products to improve the quality of the game. The arrival of new manufacturers is a very good thing for the game. Now we hope that suppliers will be able to extend the availability of material in the future so that products will not only be available via internet.

Finally, the job of the FISTF Board has not been easy in 2008. We wasted a lot of time an energy to try to solve the problems of the Greek association and we also lost or webmaster a few weeks ago. Plans are under way to re-launch a new FISTF website in the next few days. For 2009, we also hope to work on the simplification of some playing rules, to help the job of the referees and to find a solution for the problems of goalkeepers.

FISTF is also looking for the help of some people interested to contribute to the development of our association, not only to work for the marketing department and the communication department but also to promote table football at local level and to organize tournaments. If you are interested, don't hesitate to drop me a line.

Until then, I wish you a successful year 2009 full of satisfaction and a lot of great moments in table football.

Vincent Coppenolle
FISTF president

(*): the 28 nations to host tournaments were Argentina , Australia , Autria, Belgium, Canada , Cyprus, Colombia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, England, Spain, Finland, France, Germany, Gibraltar, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Malta, the Netherlands, Northern Ireland, Norway, Portugal, South Africa, Scotland, Singapore, the USA, Wales.

2. Changes in the FISTF calendar
There are some changes in the FISTF calendar. Some belgian events have now been moved.
- the Templeuve Satellites will be held on July 11 & 12 (instead of 18 & 19);
- there will be a Future in Meslin-l'Evêque on July 19;
- there will be a Challenger in Brussels on August 2.

3. Italy: Lazio on TV
There is an interview of some LAZIO ROMA players on Youtube. Check the link at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVWpXpg0kQg (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVWpXpg0kQg)

4. Table Football WebTV
Stefano Montecchiesi has finally started his project of a WebTV about Table Football/Subbuteo. The website will start on the first of January. Stefano collected several interviews to important Italian persons of the Table Football world such as Marco DeAngelis, Renzo Frignani, Stefano Buzzi, Gianluca Galeazzi, etc. He will publish on my website report on the tournaments, tips and techniques, rules, etc.
The url is www.miomovie.it (http://www.miomovie.it) and it will be online on the 1st of January.

Mr Stefano Tagliaferri (from Italy) is in charge of the new website but it will take some time before everything is online. As for the forum, FISTF is now looking for the help of contributors. We are looking for an "admin" and for a few moderators. Anyone wanting to help is more than welcome. Drop me a line if you are interested.

1. New FISTF website
Hello, a quick word to say the new FISTF website has been relaunched at www.fistf.info (http://www.fistf.info) Special thanks to Stefano Tagliaferri from Italy for his hard work. Your feedback would be more than appreciated as we try to improve the website as much as we can but everything has been rebuilt from scratch in a few days.
Follow also the latest FISTF news at http://fistfnews.blogspot.com/ (http://fistfnews.blogspot.com/) You can also discuss about table football on our forum at http://www.phpbber.com/phpbb/index.php?mforum=fistf (http://www.phpbber.com/phpbb/index.php?mforum=fistf)

2. Grand Prix of Scotland
14 teams and 65 players took part in the Scottish Grand Prix held in Edimburgh last week-end. Eric Verhagen (TFC Mattersburg) won the Open final on a clear 5-2 against his austrian teamate Karl-Heinz Haider. Robert Lenz and Christian Blümel reached the semi-finals. In the other categories, Alexander Haas (U19) and Erich Hinkelmann were the winners. The team event was probably the most exciting category of the week-end. In the semi-final between Stella Artois Milano (Italy) and Cardiff San Siro (Wales), the Cardiff boys managed to win in the last second. Jim Law reported: "One of the highlights as already said was Cardiff against Milan, although Phil scored in the last seconds, Chris Short was 3-0 down at half-time and came back to draw 3-3. As for Hot Club ours was almost turning over Milan before they got to that stage, drawing 2-2 with a minute to go before eventually losing 2-1, my fault I'm afraid drawing 5-5. "
There is a good video fo the tournament at http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/7848477.stm (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/7848477.stm)

3. FISTF forum
FISTF is happy to announce that Mr Emmanuel Gorgette has accepted the position of forum admin. We wish him good luck.

4. Italy: Asti is the italian "Calais"
A few years ago, the small football club of Calais (France) was the amazing semi-finalist of the french Cup. The amateurs managed to beat some pro teams of the french league. History offered an exciting repeat last week when the small club of Asti (Italian Serie D) reached the semi-final of the National tournament in Vignale. At this stage of the tournament, only the european champions of Pisa managed to beat the boys of Asti (3-1). Andrea Fassio, the captain of the Asti side, reported "It doesn't matter for us if it was a very big tournament or not. This time, it was a good National Open with Pisa (not witht heir best team) and Stella Artois, two European Wup winners (even if the Torino Warriors finally won the final against Pisa, 3-0). Thanks to the luck, we played against rather good teams... but not the strongest teams. But it doesn't matter, we reached the semi-final! We are almost like the Calais! Fantastic!"

5. Italy: Super 9 tournament in Ascoli
ACS Perugia won the Super 9 tournament in Ascoli last week-end. Nastasi, Buono, Manganello and De Francesco beat ASD Bari in the final (3-1).
Bologna Tigers and Black Rose Roma were the semi-finalists.

6. Spain: new club
The spanish association is glad to welcome a new club. The new club is called "Tiburones FM" and is based in Málaga. This is another good news for the spanish association who managed to increase their number of players from 30 to 60 in a few years with 7 different clubs registered. Well done.

7. Portugal: national tournament
The national tournament of the "Uniao Recreativa Brandoense" was held last week-end. 15 players competed in the openc ategory and Ruben Portugues won the final against Nuno Noronha (2-1 sudden death). Besides the main category, there was another tournament for players who are not registered to the portuguese association. Edson Pires won the final (2-0) against Filipe Martins.

8. USA: National Open in California (by Simon Hutchinson) On Sunday 25 January we played the first American Subbuteo Association Open in the Golden state (California) in 2009. It was a very competitive affair with perhaps more closely fought games than I can remember in any previous ASA Open. Congratulations to all the competitors:
Open Winner : Wayne Smith
Runner up : David Jensen
Third : Steve Tucker
Fourth : John Carroll

Mary Jane Winner : Simon Hutchinson
Runner up : Kevin Nieman
Third : Dominic Hutchinson
Notable performances were by:
- David Jensen in reaching his first final having returned to playing Subbuteo just five months ago.
- John Carroll for beating the second seed in the group stage. Thereby, making it possible for David to reach the final.
- Dominic Hutchinson despite losing all of his games he played probably the best any of us have seen in more than one game from him.  Now only if he would practice...

1. A sad loss for table football
We are saddened to inform you of the sudden passing of Iain Bell on Sunday 1st February 2009. Iain aged 54 years died quickly, without suffering, during a mountain bike ride on Sunday morning. His funeral service will be held on Monday 9th February at 2 pm. It will be at Roucan Loch Crematorium,
DumfriesDG1 4JF.
Iain was of the greatest guys in scottish table football. He was not only a player but also the organizer of the Dumfries club. He had organized several international tournaments. He will be missed by many of us.
There will be a minute of silence respected in his memory at the dutch Grand Prix in Utrecht this week-end.

2. Massimo Cremona wins the Grand Prix of Malta 30 players attended the Grand Prix of Malta last week-end in hamrun.
Massimo Cremona (Reggio Emilia) managed to win the title after a short victory in the final against teamate Mark Gauci. Derek Conti and Charles Quilina were the semi-finalists. Angelo Borg (U19), Emanuele Lo Cascio
(U15) and Joseph Mifsud (Veterans) were the other individual winners while Hamrun TFC beat the Italians of ASD Palermo in the team final. Full results on the FISTF website.

3. First tournament in Japan
8 players competed in the first FISTF tournament ever held in Japan. The Satellite of Yokohama attracted 8 players from japan. Yasuhiro Suzuki beat organizer Kenzou Koui (2-1) in the final to claim the title.

4. French Open in Issy
Eric Verhagen won another international title this week-end in Issy (France). The Dutchman had no mercy to beat teamate Wolfgang Leitner (2-1) in the final. Robert Lenz and Valéry Dejardin were the 2 semi-finalists.
Benjamin Garnier won the U19 trophy while Diego Tagliaferri from italy was the easy winner in the U15 tournament. Florian Giaux from Belgium won the
U12 section and claims his 2nd title in a row 3 weeks after his victory in the Open of Temploux. Kostas Kechris won the veterans section after an all-greek final against Dimitris Mavromitros (3-1). Finally, world number 1 Françoise Guyot easily won the Ladies section. In the team event, many close games were decided on goal-average. This was the case also in the final as Mattersburg (Austria) beat AS Hennuyer (Belgium) with more goals scored after a 2-2 draw.

5. World rankings of January 2009
The new rankings are updated at http://www.fistf.info/?q=node/55 (http://www.fistf.info/?q=node/55)

6. International Open of Traiskirchen
Here is the invitation we received from Christian Blümel for the
tournament: "Dear friends, the TFC Wr. Neustadt is proud of organizing the 30th anniversary of the Baumfalkencup. It's the first International Open in Austria this year and it will take place on the weekend 2nd- 3rd of May in Traiskirchen (20km near Vienna). We are very happy that our German friends from Spreeathen, TSG Rain and Borussia Bergkamen and Rainer Vogt have already signed for the tournament. I am sure that Marco Pinausi and TLF Gorizia will also sign for the tournament like our Czech friends Uherske Hradiste.
Its good the reach by car (motorhighway A1 or A2) and also by plane. Vienna International Airport (Alitalia, AirBerlin, Flyniki,) and Airport Bratislava (Skyeurope, Ryanair).
On Saturday evening there's a BBQ like last year. Also good wines from "Thermenregion" are waiting for participants.
THANKS @ Marcus Tilgner for the homepage:

7. Major of Amsterdam
The tournament website is up and running at www.amsterdam-tournament.nl (http://www.amsterdam-tournament.nl)

8. USA: Patapsco Cup (by Zach Walker)
Last week-end the annual Patapsco Cup was played for the 19th time. This is an annual tournament held between students at Patapsco Middle School in Ellicott City, Maryland, USA. All of these students play weekly in Paul Eyes' after school club. This tournament is a U15 event. 24 players participated in this year's event and the results were:
Patapsco Cup Semi Finals (U15):
David Marino 2 David Cranston 1
Brendan Dames 4 Adolfo Colindres 0

Final:
David Marino 2 Brendan Dames 0

David Marino gets his name on the famed Patapsco Cup for the first time after what was a great event. Also held today was the first ever Hebron Cup which will be an annual tournament played between many former Patapsco players who are now older and attend Hebron High School in Maryland. 9 players took part. This will be a U19 event for many players who move on from Patapsco, thus allowing us to try and keep them involved and playing regularly as they get older. The results were:
Hebron Semi Finals (U19):
Michael Tillman 5 Benny Nuger 1
Stuart Russell 1 Byung Kim 1 - Stuart advanced on penalties

Final:
Stuart 0 Michael 0 - Stuart won on penalties (3-0)

3. A new hope for table football in Brazil FISTF is very happy to wish a warm welcome to the newly-born LBS (Liga Brasileira de Subbuteo). The new association has plans to develop the game in Brazil and in the State of Rio in particular. The Sports Director of the association, Mr Marcelo Coutinho e Santos, reports that plans are under way to introduce the game with the help Vasco da Gama and Bangu, two of the most important football clubs of the country: "Our main objective is to bring the FISTF World Championship to Rio de Janeiro in 2014, in parallel with the FIFA World Cup."
The game will be introduced with the help of the players of another table football game called "button game", which is very popular in Brazil. 16 athletes from 3 different clubs have already started working on the development of the game but no date has been decided yet for the first tournament.
The association has also launched a website at www.subbuteobrasil.blogger.com.br (http://www.subbuteobrasil.blogger.com.br), which will be updated shortly.

4. A great video from Singapore
Just a quick note to say our friend Erfandy from Singapore posted a great video at http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=53461027529 (http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=53461027529)
The video shows the FISTF Satellite tournament held in Singapore on February 22, which was the biggest tournament ever in Asia as 15 players competed in the tournament in Singapore. 2 foreign players travelled to
Singapore: Antonio Carabillo, an Italian based in Hong Kong, and Michael Dent, a British player who lives in Kuala Lumpur.

5. Another baby in the FISTF family
FISTF would like to congratulate Darren Clark and his wife Stacey on the birth of their second daughter Phoebe. Both mother and baby are doing well.

6. FISA archives
I'm still loking for the full results of the world cup 1970 held in London.
I also search the group results of the 1974 world cup. If anyone can help, I would really appreciate. Thanks.

1. Already 250 issues
It's really a pleasure to see that the FISTF newsletter is still alive. In almost 5 years, the newsletter has been sent to hundreds of players from more than 40 countries and has helped to have better communication between FISTF and players from around the world. The newsletter has been a brilliant help to get people together, to promote tournaments, to give support to local associations,... The recent developments in Argentina, Japan, Singapore, Cyprus, South Africa, Finland,... are a great satisfaction for FISTF but we also have some new contacts in Malaysia, New Zealand, the United Arab Emirates, Brazil,... and we really hope the world of table football will grow in the future with more table football fans and more tournaments.

Please let me remind everyone that all contributions are welcome for the newsletter and that we are open to speak about all parts of the game, not only playing but also painting figures, the rules,... If you're interested or if youw ant more details, drop me a line.

2. Angel Valverde wins the Milton Keynes GP (by Jeremy Bradley) The Milton Keynes Grand Prix was won by Angel Valverde for a 2nd time, he defeated Massimo Cremona on sudden death shots. Two of his team mates also reached finals, Juan Carlos Granados (Veterans) lost to a Golden Goal by Fabio Belloni and Jose Ros (U19) lost 4-3 also to a Golden Goal by Bjorn Kegenbein. In the Under 15 Angelo Borg from Malta defeated Marcel Kwiatkowski from Berlin. An all Belgian final saw AS Hennyeur defeat Stembert comfortably 2-0. It was good to see the 5 category winners come from different countries. It was fantastic to receive great support from around Europe with Greece, Spain and Belgium in particular providing a lot of players. The tournament was played in good spirit with very few incidents, everyone seemed happy with the organisation, venue and pitches.
A change of venue is likely next year, in order to eliminate time restrictions and to allow catering within the playing hall. A big thank you to all those who supported the tournament, looking forward to next years tournament already!
An Excel version of the full results are available by E-Mailing www.FISTF.com (http://www.fistf.com)

3. Third title in a row for Zangylos (Report by Paul Andreas)
14 Players took part in sunday's Tournament in Limassol, where the atmosphere was very friendly and relaxed. 12 of the players were below 19 years of age and all belonged to Famagusta TFC. However it was "The Old Master" Giorgos Zangylos whom again played the final with his best student Marcos Kalopsidiotis, Giorgos winning by a close 3-2 score line. This is George's 3rd Title in a row on home soil and all my congratulations go to him and to Marcos for reaching his second final in a row. Nicosia's only representitve was Dimitris Parperis, whom again is showing signs of improvement, just losing out on the semi final to Marcos in extra time. The other losing semi-finalist was Neophytos Ioannides, a very young player in the game in Cyprus but seems to also be improving. The Word version of the results is available from www.FISTF.com (http://www.fistf.com)

1. Hat trick for Carlos Flores
After years of patience, this season might be the season of glory for Carlos Flores. The spanish player of ASD Reggio Emilia his having his best time perod since the beginning of his international career. After wins in the Majors of Mattersburg in August an Mons in March, Flores managed to win his third individual title in a Major in a row. This time Carlos didn't do very well during the whole week-end. Of course he help his teamates of Reggio Emilia to win the team title on saturday (they beat the Bolgna Tigers in the final) but Flores lost some games against Valéry Dejardin and Wolfgang Leitner. Anyway, the world's number 2 proved to be even better int he individual tournament as he won all his games in a very impressive way:
4-1 vs Alain Hanotiaux in the last 16 round, 3-2 vs Alberto Apollo in the last 8, 7-3 vs teamate Mark Gauci in the semi and 2-1 vs world number 1 Eric Verhagen in the final. To be noticed that the other semi-finalist of the open tournament was Antonio Mettivieri. The Italian who lives in Belgium hasn't played much over the last few years and is now 722nd in the world ranking. Top players never die...

In the other categories, many surprises helped to make the show. Rising star Giuditta Lo Cascio won the ladies tournament whil Giacomo Monica won his 3rd title in in a Major int he veterans category. Jerrel van Keimpema proved to be the right top seed of the tournament as he had no mercy for the other competitors in the U19 section. Mitchell Timmers defeated Emanuele Lo Cascio (2-1) to win the U15 section while the young Belgians dominated the U12 tournament. Kenny De Schuyteneer beat Florian Giaux (2-0) in the final.

In general, this first Major in the Netherlands was a great tournament. The venue, the catering and the trophies were fantastic. Some smaller points have to be improved in the future but these are only details. FISTF woudl therefore congratulate Robbert Thoen, Marco De Bruin and all those who helped them for making such a nice tournament. 164 players from 12 different nations were taking part.

Full results are available from www.fistf.com (http://www.fistf.com) Details and pictures at http://www.amsterdam-tournament.nl/ (http://www.amsterdam-tournament.nl/)

7. USA: National Open in California (by Simon Hutchinson) On Saturday 4 April the Southern California Subbuteo Club hosted their second American Subbuteo Association Open of the year.  All the players agreed that this was the most competitive Open tournament they could remember playing in.  There were many "upsets", and the top seeds had a tougher time than everyone expected.  Congratulations to all the winners:
- Open winner : Wayne Smith
- Runner up : Simon Hutchinson
- Third place : John Carroll
- Mary Jane winner : Munir Merchant
- Runner up : Steve Tucker
- Third : Kevin Nieman
Highlights were:
- Sixth seed, Munir Merchant, beating the number one and two seeds.
- Kevin Nieman in the Mary Jane semi final fighting back from 0-3 down at half time to tie the game.  Alas, he lost the shoot out.
- Simon Hutchinson fought back from 0-2 down at half time in the final, only to lose to a goal in the 12th minute.

1. Grand Prix of France in Beausoleil
47 players competed in the Grand Prix of France last week-end in Beausoleil. The level was quite high with several former world champions like Bertelli, Giulianini, Intra and former U19 champion Wlodarczyk. On saturday, the team event was full of surprises. In the semis, Pisa had to wait the last minute to beat the belgian team of Stembert while the Torino Warriors beat Milano. In the final, the game between Torino and Pisa was a replay after a first game int he group stage (Pisa won it 3-0). This time, the game ended in a perfect draw and the Torino Warriors finally took the title thanks to a goal in the sudden death by Vicenç Prats against Daniele Bertelli. Int he individual tournament, Saverio Baru proved to be very strong nowadays as he beat Christophe Dheur in the semi and Daniele Bertelli in the final (2-1). Luca Zambello won the U15 and U12 sections while Laura Panza won the ladies tournament. In the veterans, France's Eric Naszalyi won the final against Lionel Abecassis (1-0).

From what we heard, the tournament was first class with quality pitches, a great venue, games announced on big screens and great prizes for the winners (trophies, champagne and prize-money). Well done to the organizers.

1. Challenger of Amadora
Jorge Silva (Lazio) won the FIST Challenger of Amadora (Portugal) last sunday. Silva beat Bruno Abreu (3-2) in the final. Miguel Castro and Edy Jorge reached the semis. Gonçalo Santos won the U15 tournament while Jorge Silva also took the veterans trophy. Silva is therefore winning his second FISTF title in a month after his success in the Future of Amadora. 20 players were competing, which is a very good number for a Challenger in this small association.

2. 6 FISTF events in 10 days
The FISTF Tour 2008-2009 is coming to a very important period with 6 events being less int he first 10 day of May.
On Friday 1st, there will be a Satellite in Cagliari (Italy). May 1 is usually a day off in many european countries and the Italians are preparing a super week-end with a Satellite on friday and 2 national events on saturday & sunday.
There will be 3 events for the FISTF circuit on May 2nd & 3rd. The Grand Prix of Argentina will be held in Rosario. Rosario has become the most important table football center in South America and the tournaments will definately be very exciting with all the top local players.
Scotland will have their very first Open in the city of Arbroath. Basically this was supposed to be a tournament for individuals and teams but it has been chanegd to a double tournament for individuals.
Finally, there will also be an Open in Traiskirchen, Austria. It is usually a very well organized tournament with players from several neighboring countries taking part.
On May 9th, the city of Belfast will host the only international tournament of the season in Northern Ireland. Don't miss the chance to attend it if you're in the area.
Last but not least, Helsinki will be host the Grand Prix of Finland on May 9th & 10th. This has become one of the best tournaments in the North of Europe and as the game is growing in Finland, it's worth a trip over there.
For more details about these events, check the calendar section of the newsletter or the FISTF website at www.fistf.com (http://www.fistf.com) (or drop me a line).
Please note there will be many more tournaments later in May. It's worth a visit if you're in Foz do Douro (Portugal), Brussels (Belgium), Gibraltar, Athens (Greece), Limassol (Cyprus), Amadora (Portugal) or Bologna (Italy).

3. Arbroath IO
Please note the Arbroath IO (Scotland) was supposed to be for individuals and teams but due to the poor number of entries in the team event, it has been changed to a double tournament for individuals.

4. Grand Prix of Portugal
The tournament website is now up and running at http://apsubbuteo.home.sapo.pt/ofd/gpportugal/ (http://apsubbuteo.home.sapo.pt/ofd/gpportugal/)

5. 'The Hobby' can be seen by all
It's now possible to see Clifford Borg-Marks movie "the Hobby" live from
http://www.babelgum.com/html/clip.php?clipId=113338 (http://www.babelgum.com/html/clip.php?clipId=113338) "The Hobby is definately the best documentary ever about the history of table football.
Enjoy!

6. Dutch league for clubs

8. African Continental Cup
Clifford Graaff is bringing some good news about what's going on in South
Africa: "Sorry for the lack of communication from South Africa, however we have also not escaped the global financial crisis resulting in our local companies implementing various scenarios to insure economic viability.
Better news is that the table football scene is still very much alive and kicking. The Johannesburg TFC has now relocated and joined Panorama Sports Club where we have had numerous Friday Night Table Football games where the response has been overwhelming. We now average over 25 people every evening and the number is growing every time we play. Our next big FISTF tournament is the African Continental Cup (Afcon Cup 2009) on 14 June 2009 (in conjunction with the Confederations Cup). We are expecting our biggest field ever in South Africa with various players from fellow African countries entering. SATFA will definitely arrange table football games with the above people and really show them true South African hospitality."

1. World Rankings of april 2009

Congratulations to both players. The full rankings can be downloaded from www.fistf.com (http://www.fistf.com)

4. Diego Venegas dies in a car crash
On April 21st, Diego Venegas Marcos (41) died in a tragical car crash.
Diego was one of the biggest players in the history of the game in Spain as he won the largest number of national titles (1988, 1989,1990, 1992, 1993,
1994 & 1998) and he was also the first spanish player to win tournaments abroad, just like the famous "Guerin Sportivo" in Italy back in 1991. He was a player with a strong mood, very competitive and one of the most important players in the different clubs he played for (Sarriá CD, Putxet Panzers, Catalunya FT, ACS Perugia). It's definately a great loss for the game in Spain.

5. The Belgian Cup for Sami Targui
SC Charleroi player Sami Targui won the belgian national cup last saturday in Grimbergen. Targui beat Philippe Roufosse (SC Verviers) on shots after a
1-1 draw in the final. Brothers Geoffrey and Christophe Dheur lost in the semis. In the other categories, there was no surprise with the victories of favorites Steve Grégoire (veterans), Jérôme Herbecq (U19), Jérémie Gosset (U15), Robin Somers (U12) and Magali Doumont (Ladies).

6. Another win for Jean-Marie Amberny
Jean-Marie Amberny (FTC Issy) wo the 3rd and last "national Grand Prix"
held this week-end in the region of Vendée, home of the club of "Les Herbiers". Amberny won all 3 GPs and therefore wins the national circuit.
This time, he beat clubmate Emmanuel Gorgette in the final while Françoise Guyot and Nicolas Lefebvre reached the semis. Amberny also won the "seniors" tournament. He beat Axel Donval in the final. Henri Cornu beat Serge Leroy in the veterans final.

7. Brazil at the world cup
The Subbuteo Brazilian league (LBS) has officially confirmed the participation of one player in the open category at the World Cup 2009 in Rotterdam. His name is Marcelo Lages Ramalhete from CR Vasco da Gama team. This is the first time Brazil - And South America in general - is coming to a major FISTF event in Europe.

8. Brazil: new club in Bangu
The table football club of Bangu AC has started a subbuteo section last week-end. The game of table football in brazil is very different as the one we have in FISTF but there are some players interested to play subbuteo or "sports table football" right now. The tournament for beginners was very interesting with a lot of enthusiasm from the different players taking part and and there are big hopes that further developments will come to something big in the club and in the whole Subbuteo Brazilian league.

6. Afcon Cup report (by Clifford Graaff) AFCON 2009 – a remarkable table football success story.
On the 14th of June 2009, the South African Table Football Association
(SATFA) hosted their first African Continental Cup – AFCON CUP 2009 – at the Panorama Sports Club in Roodepoort, Johannesburg. AFCON 2009 was held to culminate with the opening of the first ever Confederations Cup to be held on African soil. AFCON 2009 and was held under the auspices of the Federation International Sports Table Football (FISTF).
A record field of 32 participants entered with 8 tables hosting top quality table football for the entire day.
This record manifests the dedicated work and time that SATFA has invested in building table football at grass roots level. SATFA also proudly unveiled their official logo and mascot.
Referees were appointed for each game and all games on the 8 tables began and ended at the same time.
The following categories were offered : Under 9, Under 12, Ladies, First Time Flickers and Seniors.
After the initial round the finals were contested in the above categories.
In the Ladies section Gillian Graaff claimed the title by defeating newcomer Angie du Toit by 1 goal to nil in a very entertaining final.
In a very competitive Under 9 category, the ever improving Slade Livesey claimed a deserved title by beating close friend Anthony Davies on penalties by three goals to one.
In the Under 12 category, Max Silber claimed yet another FISTF title by accounting for Kevin Graaff by one goal to nil.
The First Time Flickers category proved to be an extremely tight and competitive category. Tony Funani accounted for Roger Livesey on penalties in the first semi-final and Shaun Majennote defeated Wessel van der Merwe by the odd goal in two keenly contested games. The final also proved to be a very tight game with both defences reigning supreme on the day and forcing the game into a shootout. Shaun's goalkeeping was in top form and he kept a clean sheet and scored a solitary goal to claim the silverware.
In the senior category Clifford Graaff faced his younger brother, Shane in the first semi-final which resulted in comfortable win for the older sibling. The second semi-final saw Sean Morgan taking on the ever improving Jason Kennedy. This was a repeat of last year's SA Open Final. Sean's superb close control resulted in a resounding four goal success.
The first ever African Continental Cup Final saw the top two seeded players in South Africa battling it out for the coveted trophy. The Afcon Cup final saw these two players appearing against each other for the fourth time in a FISTF final.
The final proved to be a very tactful game with neither playing wanting to make any mistakes to give the advantage to the opposing player. Sean eventually broke the deadlock with a precise one-two after a great build up to score the opening goal of the final. Sean almost doubled his lead halfway through the second half only to be caught off-sides. With only a few minutes left on the clock Clifford equalized after a flowing move from a goal kick. He managed to squeeze the ball past Sean on the near post.
Both players then settled for a draw and prepared for the dreaded penalty shoot-out.
Sean started the shoot-out in awesome fashion by scoring from his first flick. Clifford matched Sean until the third kick which Sean cannoned off the cross-bar much to the relief of Clifford. Clifford then slotted his third to take a slight advantage. Both players then traded goals on their fourth flick. Sean's fifth flick was then well saved by Clifford to secure Clifford his first AFCON title and fourth FISTF title.
Two special awards were also handed out at the prizegiving, along with all the category winners :
- Goal of the Day : Wessel van der Merwe
- Chairman/Janus Gersie Fairplay Award : Roger Livesey
- Afcon Ladies Champion : Gillian Graaff
- Afcon Under 9 Champion : Slade Livesey
- Afcon Under 12 Champion : Max Silber

1. Another success for Leitner
Once again, the Austrians dominated the Open of Rain (Germany) last week-end. The team of Mattersburg dominated the team event on saturday (3-0 in final against Milano) while Wolfgang Leitner beat teamate Thorsten Korzil (3-1) in the Open final. Efrem Intra and Gianluca Galeazzi were the semi-finalists. Erich Hinkelmann won the veterans while Dominik Schulz was the best U19 player. 40 players from 4 nations were present.

2. First title for Marain
Geoffrey Marain (Templeuve) won his first international title this sunday at the FISTF Future tournament in Meslin, Belgium. The Templeuve player won by a single goal to Ralf Gregoire (1-0 in sudden death). Elodie Bertholet and Pol Serwy reached the semis. Pol Serwy also took the veterans title while Kenny De Schuyteneer won the U15 section.

3. Open of Napoli
The right date for the Open of Napoli is now October 3 & 4.

4. Open of Limassol
After some confusion, the results of the Limassol Open finally arrived to FISTF. 16 players were taking part and Giorgos Zangylos won another trophy.
Marcos Kalopsidiotis was the losing finalist (3-2). To be noticed that George Vassiliades, who usually lives in California (USA), was there on holiday and managed to take part. George reached the semi-final but lost to Zangylos (3-1).

5. Problems with @fistf.com addresses

7. Swedish TV films english subbuteo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=deZD7fvNKjg&feature=related is a documentary about subbuteo players in England. It was made for a swedish TV. It's the first time we get so much attention from this country.

8. England: a new Board
The ESTFA held the AGM last week-end in Tingwell. The new Board was elected as follows: Chairman - Mike Parnaby, michael.parnaby@ntlworld.com ; England Captain and vice-chairman - David Pawsey, david.pawsey@blueyonder.co.uk ; Fixtures Secretary - Jeremy Bradley, Jeremybradley49@yahoo.co.uk ; Treasurer - Paul Lloyd. Gary Pearson has kindly agreed to continue his great work on the website. Martin Hodds has agreed to assist Jeremy with various aspects of the new English Circuit. The ESTFA newsletter is no more, and will be replaced by a new newsletter called Subbuteo England ( http://www.subbuteoengland.co.uk).

Jeremy will be working to get the English Circuit events confirmed before the end of August. The Circuit will consist of 6 events and will include FISTF events as well as Opens. Memberships will remain at £7 and I urge all English players to join the ESTFA come September. The meeting was very positive and the Board has a clear vision of where we want to go. What we need is for the players to support our decisions and help us move the ESTFA forward.

1. Perugia and Leitner are the kings of Mattersburg The last FISTF Major of the season took place this week-end in Mattersburg (Austria). The tournament was first class with many of the world's top players. On saturday, the team event was played by 22 teams. In the semis, both games ended on goal-average. Perugia beat the home team of Mattersburg while Pisa beat Milano. In the final, Perugia gave no chance to Pisa. De Francesco's team won by a clear 2-0.

On sunday, the open tournament was also full of surprises. Francesco Mattiangeli managed to win his group (Eric Verhagen's group). The Italian was in a hot day. He beat Lucio Canicchio in quarter-final but lost int he semi to Efrem Intra. The other semi-final was a Mattersburg affair with Wolfgang Leitner's victory on Eric Verhagen. in the final, Wolfgang Leitner beat Efrem Intra in the sudden death (3-2).

Int he other categories, the winners were Alexander Haas (U19), Valentina Bartolini (ladies) and the surprising Jiri Cevela from Czech Republic in the U15 section. Cevela beat Andrea Manganello in the final (1-0).

In the veterans, the first surprise of the day was Erich Hinkelmann's losses in the group stage. The world number 1 couldn't qualify in a group with Gianluca Galeazzi and Massimo Conti. Gianluca Galeazzi later reached the final but at this stage of the tournament, he lost to a very strong Günther Bamberzky (2-3). Bamberzky had previously beaten Stefano De Francesco in the semi-final.

2. Italy: 3° Trofeo Comune Di Scansano
Gianfranco Calonico (Master Sanremo) won the tournament or Scansano last sunday. He beat Mauro Petrini (Real Maremma) in quarter-final, Diego Tagliaferri (SS Lazio) in semi and Simone Lazzarini (B&B Pisa) in final (3-1).

7. USA: Swiss players in California (by Simon Hutchinson) The Southern California Subbuteo Club welcomed their first international visitors on Sunday August 9.  Trishaand Thomas Baumelerare members of the Subbuteo Players Aargau Süd, Switzerland.  They had taken time away from their vacation to the south western USAto take on the best in California.
It was an opportunity for the SCSC members to play FISTF ranked players and see how good, or bad, they are.

Thomas drew with Wayne Smith, the best player in California, and beat the rest of the Californians. Twelve year old Trisha proved a tough adversary with her accurate flicking, which impressed her opponents.  She opened the day with a single goal victory over Dominic Hutchinson.  The next two games proved tougher as she lost to both Smith and Steve Tucker.  One goal was enough to beat Kevin Nieman.  Trisha conceded an early goal to Simon Hutchinson, and equalized early in the second half.  She snatched victory with a goal with only 50 seconds left for her third win of the day.

Both of the visitors were impressed by the hospitality of their hosts.
"Players were unbelievably nice and very hospitable. We very much enjoyed playing Subbuteo in this this beautiful environment. Cordial thanks to the Southern California Subbuteo Club." was Thomas comments on the Subbuteo Players Aargau Süd's web site.

1. Open of Mar del Plata (report by Claudio Miscia) Claudio Miscia won the first International Open of Mar del Plata (Argentina). The final was played against the Argentine Champion, Fabrizio Bertolini, who also won the first Provincial Argentine tournament (Santa Fe, 1-8-2009). The regular 30 minutes ended 1-1 and Miscia's Golden Gol was scored after 3 and a half minutes of the extended time. Plate medal to the local best player, Sergio Pelle, and 4th place to Gustavo Di Giannantonio, from Asociación Subbuteo Rosario 2008, as well as Miscia, Bertolini and 5 players more, who travelled more than 700 km to play the competition.
The 15 players (2 of whom didn't show up) played 21 games and scored 66 goals. Many thanks to the Casa de Italia (Home of Italy), who hosted the competition, to the Italian Consul to Mar del Plata, who offered breakfast, lunch and spumante to all participants and to the public, and also to Ana Paula Ras Vitiello, Miss Italy in Argentina, who presented the Golden Medal to the winner.
Claudio Miscia, who obtained his first success in a FISTF open competition, will represent Argentina in the Veterans category at next World Championship to be held in Holland on next september.

2. England: Liverpool Open (by Algy Taylor) On Saturday 19th September we'll be hosting a tournament in the birthplace of the game we know as Subbuteo/Sports Table Football (way back in 1927) - Liverpool!
The exact format of the competition is still to be arranged, although every player entering will be guaranteed 3 games, if all goes to plan then everyone should get far more than that. Although ultimately the competition will involve someone winning it, it'll be primarily aimed at everyone involved having a whole heap of fun! We also hope to incorporate a good, old-fashioned sit down meal for everyone in the middle of the day - the venue has it's own bar and restaurant - which will hopefully bring out the whole social aspect of the game a little bit more. That is, after all, why most people play!
Anyway, on to the nitty gritty details - the venue is Greenbank Sports Academy, located around 2 miles east of the city centre. It's a short drive from the M62 for those coming by car. There's plenty of free car parking space at and around the venue. If you prefer public transport, Mossley Hill railway station is a pleasant 1 mile walk or you can catch a bus from the city centre - it's a five minutely service!
In case you need accommodation, there's some available on site from £20 a night including breakfast. Liverpool's got a cracking nightlife and there's plenty to see & do on Sunday if you fancy a bit of sightseeing!
Particularly true if you're a Beatles fan - Penny Lane & Sgt Peppers'
Bistro are spitting distance from the venue.
Email back at algytaylor@gmail.com if you need any more details. Entry fee's £10, half price for under 16s and the unemployed.

7. USA: california State Championship
The third annual California State Championship was played on Saturday August 15 in Simi Valley.
This year's winners were:
- State Champion - Wayne Smith
- Missions trophy - Jason Mitchell
- Sierras trophy - Dominic Hutchinson
Smith crushed all before him and won the State Championship for the third straight year.
Mitchell pipped Kevin Nieman and Simon Hutchinson in the last round of games to take second place and the Missions trophy.
Dominic Hutchinson was awarded the Sierras trophy as the only under 19 player present at the tournament.  He also deserves an honorable mention for his performance as he lost all of his games by only one goal.

9. Malta: Muscat meets Subbuteo national team Labour leader Joseph Muscat met the Subbuteo national team at the Labour Headquarters in Hamrun on Monday.The national Subbuteo team will be participating in the upcoming Footbal Team World Championship in Rotterdam, Holland in September. Dr Muscat said politicians should not just support mainstream sports, but also disciplines such as subbuteo. "Unfortunately, non-mainstream sports end up making great sacrifices, including financial ones."
Tony Sapiano, president of the Malta Table Football Sport Association, said that subbuteo players make great sacrifices to reach high standards in the sport. In the last edition of the football table world championship, Malta reached the final. "There is great expectations among the players," Sapiano added.
At the end of the meeting, Dr Muscat was presented with a subbuteo team.

1. Raymond Kroonberg dies at the age of 80 Wednesday was a very sad day for FISTF. Raymond Kroonberg, FISTF president from 1995 to 1998, died at the age of 80. Mr Kroonberg had been the main organizer of Belgian Subbuteo for many years and a pioneer of the international Subbuteo scene. He was indeed one of the founders of the ETF back in the early 60's. There will be a minute of silence in his memory during the FISTF world cup in Rotterdam.

2. World cup live results
During the tournaments the results of the world cup should be available live at http://www.worldcup2009.eu/liveNL.html

3. Bennett is ready for the world cup
England's Kasper Bennett won the Leicester Open this week-end. The Sessana player beat Justin Finch on a golde goal (3-2). Adrian Ritoridis and Dave Lauder were the semi-finalists. Kevin Dyson won the veterans and Brandon lavender was the best U15 player.

4. Chris Thomas is english master
Chris Thomas (Cardiff SanS iro) won the English masters this week-end in Leiceester. He beat Kasper Bennett 2-1 in a very close final. Martin Hodds and Matt Lampitt were the semi-finalists.

5. New FISTF forum
The FiSTF forum has a new administrator. José Carlos Guerrero has accepted to replace Luis Horta. You can follow the FISTF forum at http://www.phpbber.com/phpbb/fistf.html

6. India joins FISTF
Some amazing developments happened int he last few days at FISTF. The "inactive" association of Pakistan announced their revival and plans to organize a first tournament in Karachi. In the same time, the All India Table Football Association (AITFA) became FISTF member. The young association has plans to deveop the game in Delhi and in more cities in the future. For more details, you can contact Ram Avtar at ramshokeen@yahoo.com or tablefootballindia@in.com For Pakistan, the contact person is Noushad Ahmed Khan at nouskhan@hotmail.com

7. Subbuteo in Canada
Hello, as you probably know Mark Meihuizen decided to resign as organizer of Canadian table football. Before a solution is found, FISTF decided to set up a free blog at http://subbuteo-canada.blogspot.com/
The blog will be a place to meet and post ideas. I have sent you an invitation by email to post news about your club, league games, tournaments,... Also, people interested to become contributors to the blog can drop me a line.

8. International Open in Bergkamen
The tournament will take place on 10 & 11 October 2009. For further information, here is the link:

9. International forum in Finland
The finnish subbuteo community is now open to the world with a section of their internet forum in english. International fans can now join at http://www.subu.fi/forum/smf/index.php

10. Transfer news
Jaime Silva (Portugal) is leaving the club of Athens Kickers. He will be playing for the spanish club of Association Turia next season. After 8 seasons as a Mattersburg player, top veteran player Erich Hinkelmann is moving to the club of TFC Wiener Neustadt. Thomas Busch is leaving Wiener Neustadt to join brother David in the italian squad of Sessana.

11. USA: So Cal & Aargu Süd become twins On September 1 the Southern California Subbuteo Club (SCSC), USA, and the Subbuteo Players Aargau Süd (SPAS), Switzerland, have become twins.
"Twinning is a way to share the camaraderie of Subbuteo playing with players from other clubs in other countries," Simon Hutchinson of the SCSC explained.  "Thomas and Trisha Baumeler visited us earlier this month and we so enjoyed their company that we started talking about formalizing a relationship with our clubs as twins."
"For us it is a great honour to become twins with the SCSC," Maxwell Gautschi, the founder of the SPAS explained.
"SPAS are the largest and most active Subbuteo club in Switzerland," he continued.  "Until this year we were active only in Europe, playing in many major tournaments in other European countries.  Trisha and Thomas Baumeler became the first Swiss to play in the USA."
"The members of the SCSC were marvellous hosts, and very fair sportsmen,"
Thomas Baumeler stated.  "The day we played will always be a good memory for us.  We may be 12,000 kilometres apart from each other, but we feel so close."
The SPAS becomes the SCSC's fourth twin.

1. Open world cup
Italy dominated the FISTF world cup this week-end in Rotterdam. The tournament was played in the beautiful SPORTCENTRUM WEST, near the football stadium of Sparta Rotterdam. The organisation was of a very good level and the sportsmanship between players was great. Daniele Bertelli became the Open champion for the second time ater his victory in 2007. This time, Bertelli was the only Italian left in the quarter-finals but he managed to beat Hansel Mallia (2-0) and Mark Gauci (2-1) to reach the final. At this stage, he beat Belgium's Valéry dejardin. The tallest guy of the tournament be the smallest one (4-2) :-)Bertelli and Italy also won the team title.
The Squadra Azzura had a though game in the quarter-finals against Italy bt they later beat Belgium and Austria.

2. U19: Kegenbein did it!
In the U19 section, the surprise came from Germany. While many observes expected Juan Noguera and José Ros to dominate the event, the final was a german affair with Dominik Schulz and Bjorn Kegenbein dominating the event.
In the final, Kegenbein final took the honors, winning his second title in a row, one year after becoming the king of the U15 category. In the team event, there was some revenge in the air and in a very expected final between Spain and Germany, Noguera and his mates won their third title in a row.

3. The Queen is still there
Belgium took the honors in the ladies category. On saturday, Delphine Dieudonné proved to everyone she's still the best player int he world as she beat Françoise Guyot on a clear 7-2 in the final. Dieudonné was also the leader of the belgian national team on sunday. Along with Bertholet, Doumont, Hardenne and Beckers, the "Girls in black" beat Italy on a short
2-1 in the final.

4. U15 & U12: Italy gave no chance
The U12 and U15 sections were an italian affair as the Squadra Azzurra won the 4 possible tournaments. In the individual event, Diego Tagliaferri and Emmanuele Lo Cascio won the U12 and U15 events. On the next day, Italy also won the team finals on a clear 4-0 aganst France in the U15 section and on a easy 3-0 against Belgium in the U12 tournament.

5. Number 3 for Martijn Bom
Despite some disappointing results in the FISTF Tour, Martijn Bom proved to be on top at the right moment of the year as the Dutchman managed to win his third individual event. This time, he beat Erich Hinkelmann in the final. Once again, Italy managed to do better on saunday. The Italians dominated the team events and took the tile after a close final against Italy.

8. FISTF meeting: what happened?
FISTF held a very constructive meeting before the world cup like friday in Rotterdam. Anyone wanting a copy of the meeting minutes can drop me a line.
Here are the main decisions taken during (and after) the meeting.
a) Silvio Catanio (Malta) becomes the new FISTF General Secretary ad interim. E-mail: maltatablefootball@gmail.com
b) Piero Capponi becomes the new FISTF vice-president in charge of marketing & communication. E-mail: pcapponi@ftchamps.com
c) The U12 category becomes official from now on.
d) The new commission about material will study to possibility to change the rules of the goalkeeper. The commission will have to send a proposal to the FISTF Board for approval.
e) An international meeting should be held over 2 days to discuss the future of the sport in a location to be decided soon.
f) The rules about sportswear during tournament will be enforced.
g) In FISTF tournaments U12 players can never be referees.
h) Consolation tournaments should always be held in FISTF events (excepted Majors).

9. FISTF World Cup 2010 in Denmark
There was a lot of discussion about the FISTF World Cup 2010 during the FISTF eeting held last friday. But finally the organizers send us a lot of positive informations about their plans to host the event. The tournament will be held on September 4 & 5 in Odense, Denmark. The venue will be Hunderup-hallen (Hunderup Hall), which is a sports centre situated in a park area in the middle of Odense. A very nice place.

Organizers will most likely use the pitches from Rotterdam 2009, although there is a chance that the town of Odense will sponsor all new tables for the tournament (and for future use in schools and clubs and such). They will know that by the end of this year.

Organizers will probably not make any special arrangements with hotels, so they suggest that visitors who are eager to book their holiday now check in at www.hotels.com and find what suits them. As mentioned above, the venue will be in the center of Odense. Most importantly, Organizers will be able to offer very cheap (probably 15 Euro per night) accomodation in a nearby school, so everyone who can live without the luxury of a hotel is welcome to make this choice.

In general, Organizers can say that in the organisation schedule January 1st 2010 is the date where all important things concerning the tournamant is to be properly anounced on an Official World Cup 2010 website.
Organizers are taken a bit by surprise that participants are already at this moment in need of a detailed description of the event. We ask for a bit of patience - bear in mind that the event is in a year, not a week, from now - but of course anyone should feel free to send their questions and they will answer them the best they can.

For details, feel free to contact Jonas Bentzen at benz@galnet.dk

2. Beggs again!
Kenny Beggs retained the All-Ireland Open title, beating John Moore on shots after a close final which ended 1-1. John dominated the first half but Kenny gradually came into the game and took the lead midway through the 2nd half. This prompted John to attack again and he was rewarded with an equaliser to take the game into extra-time. Kenny had possession for the whole of the extra period but he couldn't break down John's solid defence, so a shoot-out was required. John missed all five shots, while Kenny scored only one to win the Championship by the narrowest of margins. Kenny made it a double by defeating David Clegg 2-0 in the Veteran Final.
There is a new name on the Under-19 Trophy, as Mark McKane knocked out reigning Champion, Peter Morrison, on shots in the semi-final before beating Adam Scullion 2-0 in the Final.
Nicky Moore beat Alistair Morison 1-0 in the Plate Final.

13. USA: Carl Nielsen Memorial Challenge (by Simon Hutchinson) On Saturday 3 October, 2009, the Southern California Subbuteo Club played host to players from two other Subbuteo clubs for the Carl Nielsen Memorial Challenge. Anders Bruhl Hansen,Jesper Staal Nielsen, andKristian Staal Nielsen represented the Lega Liga Subbuteo Club of Odense, Denmark, and ex-SCSCregular Ric Rivas and his wife Seow Yin made the journey from Tucson, Arizona to take part.  The Rivases were previously members of the Lions Subbuteo Club, Singapore.
The event was deemed a "challenge" rather then a tournament so that everyone could play the members of the other clubs, rather than the people in their own club.
The Danes were so much better than everyone else winning seven of their eight games, including four "mercy rule" victories.  The eighth game was a tie between Hansen and the SCSC's Wayne Smith.  The "mercy rule" stops the game when one of the players reaches a four goal lead over their opponent.
Ric found it hard to keep up with his former club mates after a long lay off from playing.  He lost by three goals to Dominic Hutchinson, and by a single goal to Simon Hutchinson.  Seow Yin only played one game, in which she was "mercy ruled" by the older Hutchinson.
And why did we name this event after Carl Nielsen?  Nielsen was born in a small village to the south of Odense, and died on 3 October 1931 making the day of the Challenge the 78th anniversary of his demise.
All the results and a full report can be found on the Carl Nielsen Memorial Challenge page on the SCSC's website.

7. Sad news in Spain
FISTF would like to present the condolences to the family of Juan Carlos Granados Cuellar. Juan Carlos lost his father who died at the age of 82.

8. Table football in Malawi
Thanks to the belgian club of SC Flanders, there is some subbuteo activity in the african state of Malawi. A group of Belgians is helping three schools on the island of Likoma to get material for education and sports activities and in a recent conversation with some players of the SC Flanders club, an agreement was found to introduce subbuteo table football over there. Two sets and some spare material have been sent this year and the members of the association (see http://www.projectmalawi.be/ervaringen/200805_Reisverslag_Guido_en_Nicole.htm
for details) paid a visit to the kids. All of them are crazy about football so the table football material was more than appreciated. Kids don't have full tables yet but full pitches are going to be built soon.
There is a good chance that the associaion "Malawi Belgium" will pay another visit in Africa in 2011 so we'll know more about the possible development of tale football among the local youth. Any person wanting to offer more material should contact Filip Van Hulle at filip@subbuteovlaanderen.be

9. New cub in Portugal

1. Resignations
The FISTF is sorry to announce that Piero Capponi, José Carlos Guerrero and Stefano Tagliaferri have resigned of their jobs in the FISTF. We thank them for their efforts over the last 2 months.

2. The Eagles Napoli are the champions
A superb goal by Massimo Bolognino in the last 20 seconds of the final offered the continental title to the Eagles Napoli. The Italians were surprising winners as they were not part of the 26 teams who registered in due time. They were invited to fill the field of 32 teams and had a strong role of outsider in the tournament. The second place of Mattersburg and the semi-finals of Reggio Emilia and Pisa will also be remembered! The tournament held in Tournai (Belgium) will also be remembered as the first European Cup with 32 teams.

3. Grand Prix of Vienna
The invitation for the Grand Prix of Vienna is available and by dropping a line to eder@fistf.info Everybody who is interested can request the file.

4. News from Argentina
The players of ASR08 reached the official 1000th match of their history.
Yesterday, Claudio Miscia beat Gustavo Di Giannantonio 3-2 in a friendly match, with other players to say good-bye to Claudio Miscia: he's leaving Argentina after IO Buenos Aires this week-end.

1. Is FISTF growing?
Many people are wondering if the number of FISTF players is growing or not.
Some also say there is a big lack of ambition from FISTF because the numbers could be much higher. The "official" number of FISTF players is 1877. Why 1877? Simply because there are 1877 different players ranked in the different world rankings. OK, I know some people are currently saying we should have much more ambition and try to reach at least the number of 10.000 players but this can be done only step by step and only with the help of the national associations.
One of the keys to develop the number of players is to make sure they enjoy playing in tournaments. Many players have not attended tournaments in the last 24 months because they don't like to compete in tournaments where the level is too high. A solution for this is that national associations should have a wider range of tournaments from the "Grand Prix" to the "Futures".
Of course this is very difficult to do so when the players base in one country is very small.
The other idea is to make sure that more and more countries organize tournaments. The more tournaments there are, the more there are chances players whill show up to compete. Also, the more tournaments there are, the more players will accept to pay a membership fee to their national association.
There is no perfect system to have world rankings but at least there can be some pride for association to organize a few tournaments per season so that the top players can reach the top of the rankings. It's also very nice to read in newspapers that the world rankings are used. It gives more credit to a player to be mentionned with his ranking in the newspapers.
Well, these are a few ideas but it's sure we should definately put more energy to try to organize more and more tournaments and to try to get as many new players as possible. Reaching the number of 3000 players in 2014 shoudl be the goal to reach and we should work all together to achieve this.
For your statistics file, here is the number of ranked players per country (as per October 2009): Italy 500 ; Belgium 242 ; Greece 170 ; Unites States of America 122 ; England 76 ; France 75 ; Spain 68 ; Germany 63 ; Austria
58 ; Argentina 55 ; Portugal 55 ; the Netherlands 49 ; South Africa 45 ; Malta 40 ; Denmark 39 ; Singapore 30 ; Scotland 27 ; Gibraltar 24 ; Cyprus
21 ; Finland 21 ; Canada 14 ; Czech Republic 14 ; Norway 14 ; Wales 14 ; Northern Ireland 13 ; Japan 8 ; Monaco 5 ; Ireland 4 ; Switzerland 4 ; Albania 2 ; Australia 1 ; Brazil 1 ; Hong Kong 1 ; Jamaïca 1 ; Malaysia 1.
Total = 1877.

2. Satellite of Pireus
The winners of the FISTF Satellite in Pireus are as follows:
- Marcos Kapsambelis (Pireas ions) beat Christos Archimandritis (Cosenza) in the Open final (1-0). There were 52 players in Open category;
- Chris Aggelinas (AS Hennuyer) beat Marcos Kapsambelis in the final of the veterans;
- the young Bairas wins the U15 category;
- Nikos Karatarakis wins the U12 section;
- the teams of Pireas Lions beats ITEC Olympia in the team event (3-1).
79 players were competing, which is an excellent number for a Satellite.

3. Open of Buenos Aires
Claudio Miscia repeated the result of IO Mar del Plata: he won the gold medal in the IO Buenos Aires 2009. In the final, he won the shoot-out after a very strong match against Sergio Pelle (Mar del Plata). Fabrizio Bertolini and Patricio Echevarrieta the others semifinalist.
All the results in http://asr08.com.ar/competicion_ioba2009.htm

4. France: Amberny again!
The french association had a national tournament in Montivilliers on sunday. Jean-Marie Amberny (JSC Rochefort) beat Axel Donval (Rochefort TS) in the final. Sébastien Dubuc and Stéphane Pommier reached the semis.
Baptiste Leroux beat Raphaël Pommier in the final of the U15 tournament. In the quarter-finals, the players were Olivier Bastin, Mongi Rouis, Emmanuel Gorgette and Thomas Ponté.

5. Germany: Ruf wins the german cup
Ruf and Rain are the winners of the German Cup 2009 Last weekend the German Cup 2010 took place in Rain. In the final of the individuel competition Alexander Ruf from the host club TSG Rain beated team-mate Arnold Mair 1-0 in the extra-time. The 3rd place reach Frank Hagenkötter (TSL Dortmund). In the team competition the club of Rain played the final against TSL Dortmund 2-2, but won by goals. At that weekend the german association DSTFB elected Janus Gersie as chairman. Gersie already lead DSTFB successfully between
1999 and 2006.

1. Already 100 Satellites
After a difficult time to convince the national associations they could be a good idea, Satellites were introduced by FISTF in 2003. Finally, after six years, it's very positive to see that 100 Satellites have been played.
As a reminder, Satellites are tournaments open for the players who are not in the Top 100 of the Open category. For the other categories, only the top 20 players (or teams) in the world rankings are not allowed to play.
So the 100th Satellite took place this week-end in Singapore and Yusni Den Mulia (240th in the Open ranking) is now in the history of FISTF as the winner of this special event. Den Mulia is one of the 3 players who won more than 2 Satellites. Giorgos Tsombanidis (Greece) won 4 titles while Antoine Dikaios (Belgium) and Yusni Den Mulia (Singapore) won 3 times.
Satellites have been organised in 17 countries and Belgium organized the largest number of Satellites (14) while Greece hosted 12, Portugal 11, Italy & England 10,... Players from 20 countries won Satellites. Belgium & Greece won 12, Portugal & Italy 10, Malta & England 7,... We can really consider Satellites as important events in the FISTF circuit and hopefully the "smaller" tournaments like Challengers and Futures will also become more important in the future.

2. Den Mulia and Rob Smith win in Singapore The Singapore association hosted two tournaments this week-end. Besides the great field of local players, representatives from Hong Kong, Malaysia and Australia were taking part. In the Satellite, Den Mulia confirmed he's still the best local player as he beat Rob Smith (Australia) in the final.
Smith was in a great shape though as he won the other tournament of the week-end, beating Den Mulia in the semi-final and Tan Kok Wee in the final.
This is the first international victory for Australia! Well done to both winners.

3. Grand Prix of Germany
The tournament is taking place this week-end in Berlin. Don't wiss the latest updates at http://home.arcor.de/mtilgner/international/gp09-inv.htm

4. Scottish circuit - 3rd leg
14 players attended the third leg of the scottish circuit in Arbroath.

The tournament was played in a competitive and sporting manner and was rounded off in festive spirit with everyone receiving seasonal chocolate prizes. Special thanks to the three Southern lads for travelling and to fixture guru, Eoin Adams. Comical moment of the day belonged to Eoin when he got slagged for wearing a Boca Juniors shirt by the Argentinian cleaner, who was a River Plate fan!

The shows is the most popular football show on french-speaking national TV and it will be broadcast from 8.05 pm till 10.00 pm. This is a realyl exceptional chance to promote table football on TV. Well done!

8. SA championships (by Clifford Graaff) The South African Championships were held on 28/29 November 2009. They were the third annual SA Table Football Championships held at Panorama Sports Club. A record field of 35 players flicked off and competed in the following categories: Under 11, Under 13 and Seniors. The Under 11's flicked off on Saturday and 20 youngsters competed in five groups of four players. This competition was held on brand new smaller designed 'FLICK-OFF' pitches (six-a-side). The smaller fields have proved to be a tremendous success with the juniors with a lot more flicking and interaction between the players taking place. Each player received a commemorative soccer ball.
The Janus Gersie-Fair play award was handed to Daygin Prescott for exceptional sportsmanship towards his fellow players and match officials.
The final was contested between good friends, Slade Livesey and Anthony Davis. This is the third consecutive Junior Final between the two friends.
In an extremely tight game Slade lived up to his status as the number one Under 11 player in South Africa and defeated Anthony by one goal to nil.
Both Slade and Anthony are only 8 years old and the potential showed by these players are really great. The senior players will concentrate on all the juniors next season with special emphasis on the latter as SATFA believe these two juniors are future world champions.
On Sunday the Under 13's and Senior Championships were contested with 15 players taking part. Richard Graaff had a clean sweep of victories in this category and was duly crowned Under 13 SA Champion. The Senior category had two groups of 5 players (including juniors Richard Graaff and Brandon Pienaar). In the semi-finals, Harold Silber's hot winning streak of four victories in a row came to an end against the fast improving Fernando Rodrigues who won in a penalty shoot-out after the game ended goalless. The second semi-final also proved to be a very tight game with Clifford Graaff edging out Jason Kennedy by the odd goal. The final pitted African Open Champion, Clifford Graaff against the most improved player of 2009, Fernando Rodrigues. In an action-packed final Clifford Graaff won his second SA title by defeating Fernando by two goals to nil.
In summary SATFA is extremely pleased with the progress made in 2009. Our registered players, who have taken part in any SATFA organized tournament/league is now in excess of 50. Bigger and exciting plans are envisaged for 2010, which will prove to be a watershed year for our local soccer and our ever increasing table football community.

9. Season 8 ends at the South California SC The Southern California Subbuteo Club's Season 8 drew to a close on Friday November 20, 2009. By the last night of play the League Champion, runner up, and Wooden spoon winner was already known.  The only undecided issue was who would finish in third place.  Kevin Nieman had played all of his games and had a two point lead over fourth place Jason Mitchell.  Mitchell had one game left that he had to win to claim third place, he had to play Simon Hutchinson "away".  Simon scored a goal in either half and Jason finished in fourth place. The last game of the season was the League Cup final.  Mitchell faced league champion. Wayne Smith, who was trying to win his second consecutive League Cup.  Smith scored an early goal, and continued to press Mitchell's defense for the rest of the game.  Jason made a number a spectacular saves to deny Wayne a goal.  With just 15 seconds left Smith did finally get his second goal.  For the second season Wayne had done the "double". While Mitchell's was frustrated on the pitch, he was rewarded with "Player of Season 8" accolade. Congratulations to all the
winners:
League Champion :  Wayne Smith
Wooden spoon winner :  Dominic Hutchinson League Cup winner :  Wayne Smith Player of the season :  Jason Mitchell

10. New shop in Australia
Brett Davis, a player from Australia, has started a table football shop where subbuteo fans can buy handpainted teams. The money collected will be used to buy pitches and goals to set up boards and hopefully get the game going again in Australia. The business is "Flick N Good Figures" the website is www.flickngoodfigures.com Bred hand paints all items on the figure and specializes in Bundesliga, Premier League, A league, International and pretty much anything people want painted.

1. Eric Verhagen of course!
Eric Verhagen won the individual Grand Prix of Austria this saturday in Vienna. The Dutchman beat Lucio Canicchio from Italy in the final. Thorsten Korzil and Manfred Pawlica reached the semis. Erich Hinkelmann beat Horst Deimel in the final of the veterans while Alexander Haas beat Czech Republic's Jiri Cevela in U19 final. Top favorite Diego Tagliaferri won the
U15 tournament.
On sunday, the club of Mattersburg managed to put their two teams in the final. Mattersburg A beat Mattersburg B in the final. TSC Royal 78 and TFC Wiener Neustadt lost in the semis. 42 players (including 4 from Hungary) were competing.

2. A nice project for the youth
If italy is the leading nation for the work with the youth, some good things are happening nowadays in Spain. In Malaga, Antonio Miguel Montaño is working with 70 kids (boys and girls) in a school. "With the help of our sponsor Search Web SL, we got enough money to buy 12 tables. Right now, childrens are playing when they have free time between the lessons or after the school time but we hope to find other premises to play outside the school in the future", explains Antonio Miguel Montaño. "With the help of Gibraltar's Alan Crisp and Murcia's Juan Carlos Granados, we have organized training sessions and clinics and we really hope to have some of our kids in the spanish U12 & U15 national teams in the future. Right now we are happy about the results we have collected in tournaments in Madrid, Estepa and Gibraltar. Our goal is to keep our players far away from video games and, more importantly, from the street."
Next sunday the young players from Malaga will take part in the provincial championship in Sevilla where 30 players will compete. This is of course a new record for the tournament!

1. Some news from the Greek Open
The Greek Open was played this week-end in Athens. On saturday, the team tournament was played by 13 teams and Falcons Athens beat Pireas Lions in the final. Among the 18 veterans, Lazaros Papakonstantinou was the winner after he beat Chris Aggelinas in the final.
On sunday, there ware 69 players in the Open category. Spyros Hantzaras won his 2nd Open (the first win was in December 2008, almost one year day by
day) as he beat Velissarios Fragakis int he final. Kostas Triantafillou and Kostas Sesses were the semi-finalists. Dimitris Koulosousas (U15) and Giannis Vlassopoulos (U12) dominated their respective categories. Finally, the great news from the week-end was that the organizers made possible to host the first ladies tournament ever in Greece. 9 girls competed in the event and Dionysia Koulosousa (Pireas Lions) won the final against Eirini Patrikiou (Roligans). Well done to the greek association for such a nice achievement.

2. Daniele Bertelli wins the Christmas tournament As always, a lot of players attended the Christmas tournament organized by the club of Stella Artois Milano (Italy). Daniel Bertelli (Pisa) won the final against Francesco Torano (Bologna) while Bruno Mazzeo and Roberto Rocchi were the semi-finalists. Patrizio Boscolo won the consolation tournament. The club of Master Sanremo won the team event after beating Pisa in the semi-final and Milano in the final. Carlo Alessi won the veterans, Luca Zambello was the best U15 and Paolo Zambello won the U12 section. Doriana Illiano won the ladies final.

3. News from Quebec (Canada)
Pierre Chastenais tries to organise a table football tournament in Montreal on saturday january 30th 2010, and if potential participants are able to make the trip and play in one of the rare canadian events (Canada is, a very big country, and it isn't everyone who can travel) there will be one!
Pierre will handle the organisation, but will need a referee-in-chief who knows the rules of FISTF inside out. The event would be open to players living on the east coast of the USA. If you are interested and can attend, contact Pierre: quebecsubbuteo@yahoo.ca

4. Swiss league
The swiss association has played the first half of the Swiss Championship 2009. Thomas Baumeler is the leader with 28 points, followed by Peter Erb with 18 points,... Six players are competing in the national league.

1. Open of Athens correction
There was a mistake in the previous issue of the FISTF newsletter. The winner of the U15 section at the Open of Athens was Vaggelis Bairas.

2. Sergio Ramos wins in Madrid
The first Satellite of Madrid was played this saturday with a big field of players. Sergio Ramos (Portugal) beat Giuliano Gazzoldi from Italy 4-1 in the final. José Ros and Nicky Napolitano were the semi-finalists. The team event (8 teams) was nice as well with a final victory for the team of Real Murcia B. They beat the Italians of Sanremo in the final. Brescia and Fiamme Azzurre lost in the semis.

3. A very open tournament in Madrid
Giuseppe Guzzetta (Catania, Italy) won the 2nd Satellite of Madrid held this sunday in a shopping center int he center of the city. Guzzetta beat Paolo Finardi (Warriors Torino). Semi-finalists were Claudio Dogali and Emilio Richichi. The Madrid Satellites were very successful with 47 players on each day!

4. Marcos Kapsambelis wins the Satellite of Athens The second greek Satellite of the season was organized this week-end by the club of Roligans. 54 players competed, which is a good number for a Satellite. In the team event, 5 teams were competing and the team of Pireas Lions won the tournament. They had the same number of points as the B-team of Roligans but they had a better number of individual wins. Christos Kourouklis (Roligans) beat his club mate Marios Bourtzonis in the final of the U12 event. In the ladies we had also 6 players and Eleftheria Papanikolaou (Roligans) beat Xiki violetta in the final with a score 1-0.
13 veterans participated in the category. Dimitris Kourambas (Olympia) lifted his first ever trophy beating in the final Chris Aggelinas (AS Hennuyer). In the main event on sunday, there were 34 Open players. The favorites went all the way and Marcos Kapsambelis (seed 2) doubled his victories for the season beating Giorgos Papadopoulos (seed 1) in the final. Giorgos Tsombanidis and Eugene Plytas reached the semis. The tournament was played with the presence of the TV Channel "TRT Turk" and some kids played their first tournament ever thanks to the efforts of the Roligans club, which introduces the game to a lot of young players.
Congratulations to Giorgos Dimakeas and his clubmates for their efforts.

5. The dutch cup for Robbert Thoen
On December 19, 2009 the National Dutch Cup was won by Robbert Thoen. In the final he beat friend and teammate Marco Leeman with 1-0. The 3rd place was going to Nico Marks. He won with 3-1 from Paul Brinker.

6. Pierre De Leeuw is the king in Templeuve
56 players attended the Templeuve national tournament this saturday. The host club was celebrating their 20th birthday and unfortunately many last minute drop-outs were registered because of the snow. Even the trains coming to the Tournai station were late so the start of the tournament was postponed by 30 minutes. In the main category, because of the drop-ous, there were only 6 players taking part. After a groupe stage, Pierre De Leeuw (Charleroi) and Rémi Soret (France) came on top and played the final.
Pierre De Leeuw won the game 4-3 to win the tournament for the second time.
Justin Leroy was 3rd. In the B-category, Rémy Huynh (Rochefort TS) defeated home player Geoffrey Marain in the final (1-0). In the C-category, Eric Threis (Stembert) won the final against Benoît Léonard (Rochefort TS).
Threis was playing his first tournament in 20 years! Jos Ceulemans (SC
Flanders) beat Bruno Goset (Stembert) in the final of the veterans. In the
U15 category, Jérémie Gosset (AS Hennuyer) had no pain to beat David Vantassel in the final. The consolation tournaments were won by Julien Dardenne (B-category), Jean-Luc Platiaux (C-category) and Matthias Mastroianni (U15).

1. Highlights of 2009
Here is a brief review of the sports year 2009. Hope you enjoy it.
* Daniele Bertelli: 2 months after winning the Grand Prix of Italy, the Italian is world champion again. At the end of a perfect day, he beat Valéry Dejardin to win the title in Rotterdam. The other world champions are Delphine Dieudonné (ladies), Martijn Bom (veterans), Bjorn Kegenbein (U19), Emanuele Lo Cascio (U15) and Diego Tagliaferri (U12). Italy picks up
4 team titles while Belgium wins the ladies section and Spain wins the U19 tournament.
* The European Cup for clubs in held in Tournai (Belgium) and 32 teams are competing, which is a world premiere. The italian team of Eagles Napoli wins the final against TFC Mattersburg.
* Eric Verhagen: the Dutchman is one of the hotest men in the circuit. He wins in Temploux, Edimburgh and Issy. These three tournament were among the best events in the beginning of 2009. At the end of the year, Verhagen is world number 1 again after his victory at the Grand Prix of Austria.
* Carlos Flores remains the world number 1 for many months. 2009 was another great year for the spanish player who won in Cormons, the Majors of Mons & Amsterdam, Corbera de Llobregat and Mislata.
* Worlfgang Leitner wins 4 important individual tournaments: the Major of Mattersburg, the Grand Prix of Germany and the Opens of Traiskirchen and Rain.
* Zach Walker wins the 2nd edition of the "America Cup" and confirms he's stil the top american player for the moment.
* Clifford Graaff wins the very first edition of the Afcon Cup, the largest tournament ever held in Africa.
* Asia is developping as the very first tournament in Japan is held in January in Yokohama and Singapore has a growing number of players. Yusni Den Mulia wins 3 FISTF Satellites while the Singapore Challenger in november has an australian winner: Robert Smith! Also, India becomes full FISTF member!
* South America knows some positive developments: bigger tournaments in Argentina, a new association in Brazil and even a small group of players in Peru.
* The Open of Napoli (Italy) attracts 165 players in october and world champion Daniele Bertelli wins the open title.
* Legends never die: after a long break, Giancarlo Giulianini wins the Satellite of Casale Monferrato ins eptember!
* Greece has growing numbers of players and tournaments. Marcos Kapsambelis wins 2 Satellites where the level is very high.
* Madrid (Spain) is holding 2 Satellites in December. The level is very high and the winners are Sergio Ramos from Portugal and Giuseppe Guzzetta from Italy.
* "Young" countries in Europe are improving their activity: Cyprus had many tournaments last season, Finland has growing numbers, Gibraltar is back on the FISTF map, Switzerland has launched a national league and Malta has a new Board that manages to attract many old players back to the game. Well done to these countries.

2. Which future for the FISTF Board?
On January 23 & 24, the future of FISTF will be discussed at the Extraordinary Congress of Frankfurt, in Germany. Seven nations (Italy, Malta, Greece, Spain, France, Wales & Scotland) have asked this meeting as according to the statutes of FISTF to discuss the vision of the countries for the next four year. Elections might even take place even if nothing is decided yet. This meeting will be a very important one and the current Board members will have to decide wheter or not they wish to continue to work for FISTF. It will then be up to the nations to decide who should be in the next FISTF Board...

3. Your opinion counts
In the next issue of FISTF, I will publish the answers to the next short survey. Could you please tell me:
- the most important facts you remember of the sports season?
- the most important facts you remember off the pitch?
- who is according to you the player of the year?
- what is according to you the team of the year?
- what was the best tournament of the year?
Thanks for your contribution.

4. USA: Farewell to the "Noughties"
The Southern California Subbuteo Club played their last tournament of the decade on Sunday December 27. The "noughties" have been an exciting decade for the SCSC as their membership has steadily increased to form a group of "regulars" and larger group of "tournament only" players.
It was a treat for the "regulars" to welcome John Carroll and Sean Daly to the Subbuteo table again.  Sean and Wayne Smith were the only two players taking part in the competition who were members of the club at the start of the decade.

1. A last newsletter?
There is a lot of sadness today as at the time of writing, I know it's likely this will be the last FISTF newsletter. As you probably know, there will be an Extraordinary meeting in Frankfurt (Germany) this week-end. A lot of people also know that the goal of the meeting is not only to discuss about the future of table football but also a few people have concentratred their energy to "take over" FISTF. Therefore, as there is a big chance that the current active Board members will not be involved in the FISTF Board in the near future, I would like to thank all the readers of the newsletter for their support over the years.

I also want to thank Heinz Eder, Thossa Büsing and Fred Vulpes for their great help over the last few years as they are not only great people and great table football fans but also hard workers and, more importantly, great friends.

For sure there is another person who deserves a special mention int he newsletter. Frédéric Perdaens, the world rankings officer, has proved to be the right man for the job for many years and I'm more than happy to have had the possibility to work with him.

Good luck to the new team. I'm not sure they are aware how much work being a Board member involves but I know they will do their best to keep things going.

2. World Cup 2010
On behalf of the Board of Directors I inform you that the coming WorldCup will take place in GERMANY. The venue will be RAIN. The second candidate
(Fiumicino/Italy) will get the preference for the World Cup 2011.
The world cup website will be up and running soon. The address will be www.worldcuprain2010.de

3. Matzinger wins the national cup in Austria This weekend the Austrian Cup for Individuals and Teams was played in Traiskirchen. 27 players took part in the individual competition. In a close final Markus Matzinger (TFC Mattersburg) won the title against Guenther Bamberzly (TFC Wr. Neustadt) win a score of 2-1. Robert Lenz and Thorsten Korzil (both TFC Mattersburg) reached the semis.
In the team competition the 2 top seeded teams (TFC Mattersburg and TFC Wr.
Neustadt) reached the final. The first halft ended 1-1 (goal difference 1-1). In the middle of the second half Mattersburg scored 3 goals on 3 different tables (in 2 minutes) and the final score was 3 vs 0. Details:
Lenz vs Pawlica 1-0, Matzinger vs Blümel 2-0, Leitner vs Bamberzky 1-0, Korzil vs Hinkelmann 1-1. TFC Mattersburg B and TFC Wr. Neustadt B reached the semi-finals.

4. The Greek cup for Nikos Beis
The 26th Greek national cup was held this week-end. Almost 100 players were taking part. Int he teams section, Falcons won the trophy. Olympia was the finalist while Atlas and Pireas Lions were the semi-finalists.

In the Open category, Nikos Beis was the winner as he beat Giorgos Koutis in the final. Hantzaras and Stamokostas lost in the semis.

Finally, the U15 tournament came to a logical end as Giannis Vlassopoulos beat Koulosousas int he final. Dimopoulos and Bourtsonis lost in the semis.

5. New website in Gibraltar
The Gibraltar Table Soccer Club hasstarted a website at the following
address: www.gibraltartablesoccerclub.com Some pages are still under construction but it's a great move to see the Gibraltar association promoting their activity!

6. News from South Africa
The local association is hosting its annual New Years Tournament this Friday (22 January @ Panorama Sports Club). They are also planning on having an AGM early in February for elections for SATFA posts and to finalize the season 2010. There will be various tournaments in the Johannesburg area.

7. World Cup 2010 in South Africa (by Clifford Graaff) All table football players/enthusiasts/followers planning on visiting South Africa during the World Cup must please contact Clifford Graaff (Chairman of the South African Table Football Association – SATFA) with relevant details of there visit. Information required would be: duration of visit, location of visit and contact information.
SATFA will be recording the above information in order to meet our counterparts from the rest of the world and extend our legendary hospitality to all our new friends.
We would also like to arrange friendly table football games, and where possible, tournaments (at various centers in our country) to coincide with this historic football landmark.
The emphasis of the above (apart from the strong friendships which will be
forged) is to learn more about this great game to improve our local game in the administration, organizing and playing departments.
Janus Gersie visited our country two years ago and played in our first ever GP of Johannesburg(which he convincingly won) and other games against all our local players. He also assisted SATFA immensely in the development of the game in South Africa. Janus is regarded as a GOOD friend of SATFA and more importantly a close family friend of mine as he spent quality time with my me and my family.
We (SATFA), would like to meet the rest of our international  table football family and create more friendships like our Janus Gersie-friendship.
