Foosball Academy

  • Free
  • Sport

Foosball, some call it table soccer or table football, is a quintessential part of German culture. The first foosball table was built almost 100 years ago.

Foosball is a very inclusive and versatile sport and inspires women and men of all ages and levels – from children to seniors, from the national team to hobby players.

Hofbrauhaus Melbourne will host the Foosball Academy as part of the German Week Melbourne. At two Leonhart foosball tables, players from the age of 10 are welcome to experience the game. With volunteer mentors from the Southeast Foosball League, they can either hone their skills for the upcoming tournament or just have some fun playing.

This is a free event. Please book one of the three sessions that will be offered during the day. Should you attend as a team or group, please register all players individually.

Don’t miss this chance to experience the spirit of foosball at Hofbräuhaus Melbourne.
