How to Play Table Football

Here at Home Leisure Direct we have created a comprehensive set of video tutorials for Table Football. We can show you all the tips and tricks you'll need to get you playing at the top of your game in no time.

Ben Mason, Team GB Foosball player, has recorded a collection of videos with us to teach you everything you need to know about table football, or foosball.

We have a number of videos that will appeal to both beginners and experts alike, which cover all of the rules of the game. From the kickoff to a stationary ball or even one that leaves the table, Ben explains in detail what is and isn't allowed at every stage of the game. He also covers essentials such as table preparation, and what is required for a table to meet ITSF regulations.

As well as explaining the rules, Ben can teach you a number of different shots, including the push shot and pull kick, so that you'll have full control over the ball at all times.

When you're ready for some more advanced techniques, we have videos that can show you the nuances of passing and tic-tac play (passing back and forth between your players), and how to block opponents' shots and keep them from scoring.

If you're looking for something more strategic, Ben even explains the psychology of the game and how to use it to your advantage.

This comprehensive guide to Table Football will improve the match standard of any player. We also have a video interview with Ben explaining how he got into the game, short talks about competition play and coaching, and much more.
