No winner in the Smith vs Smith game

Some recent action from the first ever “friendly” game at the Western Australia S.C between Stuart Smith (Adelaide Derbyshire Rams) and host Robert Smith. The game finished 1-1 with Stuart equalizing in the last 90 seconds to dent Robert's pride. Much fun!

Australia at the World Cup

Steve Dettre was in Rotterdam as a visitor during the FISTF World Cup this week-end. the former organizer of australian table soccer and FISTF Director was impressed by the event and was very enthusiast about the possibility to have an australian team in 2012 if the world cup is held in London. Steve also mate Laurent Garnier (France) and Willy Hoffmann (Switzerland), two of the other co-founders of FISTF. A good time to remember a lot of souvenirs...
