Wikipedia defines a sport as "an organized, competitive, entertaining, and skillful activity requiring commitment, strategy, and fair play, in which a winner can be defined by objective means." Foosball ticks all of the boxes, and so therefore counts as a sport. Why get all sweaty going for a run, when you can do just as much sport in the corner of your local pub?

International rules are stupid, too many restrictions and strange rules, I prefer the fast paced english game. No spinning should be the only rule.

Chris R replied to the topic I miss my foosball table.
used to play for ages at uni bar and always seemed to get better after more drink just like my darts, snooker and pool. We need to get together and have a few brews and see how well your form lasts.
