FISA Subbuteo World Cup

The first ever Subbuteo table football World Cup was played in London 1970 with 13 Nations competing. The 'big' three of the 1960s where Belgium, Netherlands, West Germany and Switzerland was the emerging ETF Nation. The four UK Home Nations England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Irland and Eire, as well as from southern Europe Malta and Gibraltar travelled to London.
The Americas where represented through the US and Asia through Israel, which reached against all odds the Semi-Final stage. Stuart Goldman was UK citizen from England and represented Israel. The 24 players were drawn in the 6 groups of 4 players and the 2 top players of each group proceeded to the 2nd group stage, with 4 groups of 3 players. The top 2 players again emerged then to the Quarter-Finales.
All results are in the FISTF archive. We can see that Subbuteo was innovative with the tournament modus in 1970. The FIFA World Cup 1982 was played with this modus, without the Q/F stage.

FISA Subbuteo European Championship

The very first FISA European Subbuteo Championship in 1980 was played as a Team event, with 1 Senior and 2 Junior Player. The nation winning the most individual matches, won the team match. A draw was also possible, if each team won an individual match and the third match would be a draw itself. The result would be a 1–1; as an example. Starting with 1984, the European Championship was played with the same structure as the FISA World Cup, containing one Senior and one Junior category. In 1996 another FISA Subbuteo European Championship event was organized, although FISTF had already been established in 1992.
Several nations were not invited or did not participate, and the reason is unclear. After 1993, with all nations joining FISTF, the ETF became defunct in October 1993. Hasbro, tried to carry on by itself to organize a FISA event, with a limited number of players participating. The 1996 competition was therefore the very last organized by FISA. All matches played were 2x15min, with extra time of 2x5min in necessary, and 5x shots in the knock out phase.

ETF Europa Cup for Individual Players

Participating Nations where:
Founding nations: Belgium, Netherlands, Germany
Joined later: Great Britain BTSA and later split up, England ETSA, Switzerland SSTV, Malta MSTSA, Austria EÖTV, Scotland STSA, Italy FICMS, Gibraltar GTSA, Wales WTSA, France FFFT and sensationally Australia ATSA. Which was then an indicator for the upcoming FISTF as the new world federation.

The ETF founded in 1963, defunct after the 30th Edition of the Europa Cup in 1993. It was a strong and stable association and the base for the merger of ETF Nations and FISA Nations, to form and built FISTF. Some countries had two table football/soccer/Subbuteo associations each affiliated to ETF or FISA. That took time to meld together. The main problems where the playing rules and equipment manufactured. FISTF made a new start to melt all players into one democratic global federation, with sport rules and material with several manufacturers offering sports equipment.
The development of FISTF is ongoing and more Nations around the Globe are joining. All ETF matches played 2x20min., a.e.t.=after extra time with 2x10min, if necessary 1x10min. golden goal decision or 5x shots.
Corrections: Willi Hogeweg was German, and not Dutch. Kurt Erb won the 1980 Europa Cup in Uddingston, and not his brother Peter Erb. Both mistakes corrected, which were previously mentioned. Tonio Montesin was the finalist in the 1993 ESTF Cup final, and not John Barrons ! Important to mention is that Mike Dent is Scottish, while playing for England in 1976.

ETF Nations Cup for National Teams

The season 1966–67, 1967–68 and 1968–69 also saw the ETF Nations Cup for National B-Teams and Junior Teams. The three ETF Members Belgium, Netherlands and Germany participated. England, the fourth ETF Member did not participate. In the 1960s 2 points were given for win and 1 point for a draw, that's why a high score of 8–0 was possible, which meant a 4–0 win in today's result system.
Starting with the 1983 ETF Nations Cup, the one point system was introduced for an individual win and for a draw non-points were given to both teams. A team consisted of four Players. All ETF Matches were played 2x20min. In knock-out Stages, an 'after extra time' with 2x10min was applied if the match had a draw result. In case there was no winner, the 'golden goal' had to be scored in a 1x10min period. If no winner came up, the 5 shot system was used. The 5 shot system is practically the penalty shooting in real football/soccer. The Editions 1969–70 and 1970–71 were cancelled due to the fact that the Netherlands were not interested to participate at the ETF Nations Cup.

FISA and ETF Europa Cup for Club Teams 1985–1993

On the weekend of 7–8 September 1985, SPA, the first Club Team Europa Cup was played. In the honor of the fine Paul Outmanns who was a great player and organizer, the Coupe par equipe d'Europe was named 'Trophy Paul Outmanns'. The Europa Cup in Spa is considered as the first ever Europa Cup for Club teams. At the 1st edition in Spa, Clubs participated from Belgium, France, Germany and the Netherlands. Italian clubs participated at the 2nd edition.
The 2nd edition in Aubervilliers was played on the weekend 9–10 January 1988 with 4 countries, France, Belgium, Italy and Germany with a total of 15 clubs.
The 3rd edition in Oldham on 4–5 August 1990 with 7 countries, France, Belgium, Italy, Wales, England and Netherlands. The 7th nation is not yet confirmed from research work.
The Quarter-Finals 1989–90:
Cardiff TSL 2–0 SC Elbeuf, SC Goldfingers Cornesse 3–0 Charlton SC, Birmingham TSL 2–0 Leicster Cheetah SC, RSMV Rotterdam 2–1 Florence SC. The editions in 1985–86 and 1987–88 were an initiative by the clubs and players, as well as the FBFTS and FFFT. The edition in 1989–90 was organized by FISA personal. The Europa Cup for ) of Sport Table Football was finally born. The club Teams consisted of three players each. The club winning the most of the three matches wins.
The playing time was 2x20 minutes with three players per team. The single win per player counted 1 point, the draw 0 points for each team and the loss 0 points, and therefore it was often important, to have a good goal difference scored from the three individual matches.
Clubs participated from FISA and ETF countries, and the Europa Cup for Club Teams began too emerge steadily.
It was the beginning, when the flicking nations from FISA and ETF, came step by step together. Talks and meetings, ideas and projects came up to get the table football community merged. The BIG Ignition sparkled!
