Local Tournaments: www.ocfoosball.com/localtournaments.htm


Fooser Tip's:

Q: When your opponent is shooting the ball where should your men be? Up,
Down, what?
A: They should be down and angling around 45 deg. toward the goal you would
be shooting on. The reason for this is if your opponent misses the shot you
have a better chance of catching the ball in this position when it comes
flying out of the goal area.
