Canada Wins GOLD in France!! |
On January 8th, in an epic 3 hour final match against Slovenia, Canada emerged victorious and captured the Gold medal in the Division II Mens event at the International Table Soccer Federation's World Cup event in Nantes, France. The World Cup ran from January 5th to 8th. Saskatoon's own Barry Willick was one of the seven member team representing Canada!

We've made a comeback! Apparently, there are a lot of foosers in Saskatoon that are interested in pumping new life into the once vibrant local foosball scene. We started by planning to meet every Thursday at the Snooker Shack for a DYP (Draw Your Partner) tournament of sorts and we've already added a second event (Singles) on Tuesday evenings. Our goal is to make it fun for players of all skill levels to compete and hone their skills. Even if you have never played before and want to give foosball a try, feel free to drop in.
A few years ago, the Saskatoon Foosball Club was one of the largest and most active foosball clubs in Canada with 3 local events per week. The SFC also hosted the Canadian Open Foosball Classic on an annual basis that attracted players from accross Canada and the United States.
Who knows... maybe we can do it again!

Wow, what a weekend! If you didn't already know, Calgary hosted an excellent
foosball tournament over the long weekend and 7 of us from S'toon attended.
If you've never been to a large tournaments like this before, you don't know what your missing. Although
the Open events were dominated by the Alberta Pro's. Saskatoon's own Nathan Van Melle and Patrick Lys placed extremely well,
both individually and as a team in the Rookie and Semi-Pro events. Way to go guys!

Thanks to Patrick Lys for taking responsibility for the draw and keeping things running smoothly.
Here's a shot of the final game between the team of Brendan King / Dave Boukes (left) and Nathan Van Melle / Tom Hanna. Brendan & Dave went
un-defeated on the night to take home the $110 first prize!

36 Foosers showed up last night to play in our first tournament since our second table was installed! Needless to say,
we had a great time. 53 tournament games were played to decide who would take home the first prize of $110.
In the end, Terry WilGenhof and Barry Willick came back from the B side to win 3 straight against the A side winners,
Grant Erickson and Shaun Sanford, and claim top honours.
This was our first night of using our new ranking system. We definately identified a few kinks and anomolies that we will have to work
out, but all in all, it went great!
|
Our new table is on it's way! |
March 13th, 2002 |
|
Here is a shot of our truck leaving Vancouver early Monday morning with our new T2000 Table! We're expecting it
to arrive by the end of the week and should be up and running well in advance of next Tuesday's DYP meet.
Once we have it in place we should be able to speed up our tourneys and give everyone a chance to play more foosball!
We're also looking to add some variety at different times such as Singles, Goalie Wars, Forward Shootouts, and higher stakes BYP events.
|
Another Record Turnout! |
March 12th, 2002 |
|
Once again we've drawn our best turnout ever with 28 players!
Congratulations to Tom Hannah and Jim Swaby who walked away with the first prize of $100!
As usual, a good time was had by all but we've come to realize that WE NEED ANOTHER TABLE!
