USTSF: WHO ARE WE?<= /p>

In 2002, the United St= ates Table Soccer Federation (USTSF), a non-profit organization registered in the State of Washington, was formed and became one of the first member organiza= tions to affiliate with the International Table Soccer Federation (ITSF). An all-volunteer staff of veteran professional player-promoters coordinates the USTSF: Larry Davis, Executive Director (CO), Kathy Brainard (WA), Bruce Nardoci (NC), Jim Waterman (MD), = and Jim Stevens (CA) with additional assistance from Mury Johnson (MN) and Cissi Whipple (TX). The combined US= TSF Staff has over 150 years of experience with table soccer from competitive p= lay, arcade management, and route operating, to tour staff, tournament direction, manufacturer sales and product promotions.=

USTSF: WHAT DO WE DO?

The USTSF acts as the United States' officially designated liaison between the ITSF and the various USA-based “member” foosball organizations (e.g., the United States Table Soccer Association [USTSA], Bonzini USA, Independent Foosball Promotions [I= FP], etc.) as well as all the table manufacturers and the United States Olympic Committee. The objectives of = the USTSF are:

1. To act as the representative agency for the United States in relation to = the ITSF, coordinating all affiliated table soccer associations in meeting the ITSF’s requirements for Olympic Sport recognition/status,

2. To establish and or coordinate qualification status of players to represent th= e United States in international competition,

3. To extensively promote the sport of table soccer to players and the public ali= ke, from youth to adult, and from grass-roots all the way up to international competition levels,

4. To ensure fair and equitable representation of U.S. players and play standards= in relation to international competition, rules, disciplinary action, rankings= and more, and

5. To ethically help grow the sport of table soc= cer independently of manufacturers and without regard to race, religion or nationality.

USTSF: WHAT WE CAN DO FOR YOU!!

The USTSF can provide you= or your business with the opportunity to take advantage of the rapid growth of this sport, from the local grass roots, youth center, dorm and sports bar level = all the way up through international tournament competition. More importantly, this is an oppor= tunity that provides your business with ex= cellent media exposure in return for your marketing investment – exposure that reaches far beyond the local softball or bowling team sponsorship of provid= ing logo’d shirts in exchange for a tax deduction. Sponsorships and/or donations to t= he USTSF, in addition to supporting Team USA, provide the following benefits:

Presenting Sponsor: = The Presenting Sponsor is the most prestigious and visible of all sponsorships available and is reserved for only one organization or company.<= /span>

Platinum:        Profess= ional USTSF press release/electronic media distribution inclusion for six months; Business logo on shirts/hats worn by U.S. National Team/Team USA; USTSF web= site banner/link for one year; Master/Pro player demo/interviews/product endorsements possible/negotiable.

Gold:        &= nbsp;      Profess= ional USTSF press release/electronic media distribution inclusion for three month= s; Business logo on shirts/hats worn by U.S. National Team/Team USA; USTSF web= site banner/link for six months.

Silver:         =     Professional USTSF press release/electronic media distribution inclusion; Business logo on shirts worn by U.S. National Team/Team USA; UST= SF website banner/link for three months.

Bronze:        &= nbsp; Profess= ional USTSF press release/electronic media distribution inclusion; Business logo = on shirts worn by U.S. National Team/Team USA.

Preferred:       Inclusi= on in tournament write-ups/articles on USTSF website, coin-amusement industry and= /or nightclub and bar trade magazines, etc.

Standard:        Photograph (8”x10”) autographed by the U.S. National Team.

As you can see, each level entitles the sponsor/donor to various levels of benefits – sponsorship exposure fr= om our professional press release distribution alone is worth more than t= he Gold Sponsorship level (our last three press releases had more th= an 550,000 hits/views and were "picked up" by over 1,500 media outle= ts worldwide).  And remember, events such as the ITSF World Championships Finals are international athletic competitions and players competing from the USA are &quo= t;Team USA" -- a team entirely composed of proven champions representing the United States in competition against the champions from some 20-30 other countries. As such, sponsor/d= onors will in fact receive both local and long-term, widespread international media exposure as well!!

Some= other interesting statistics/info regarding table soccer ("foosball"), = both nationally and internationally...

In response to demands from tournament and league players worldwide who actively sought increased coordination, organization, standardization and b= oth official and public recognition of table soccer as not just a game, but as a professional, competitive sport, the International Table Soccer Federation (ITSF), was founded in France just over three years ago. Since then, the IT= SF has gained 40 Member Countries and has established player contact in nearly every country recognized by the United Nations.

The = ITSF World Tour featured 35 sanctioned tour tournaments in 2006, including the W= orld Cup of Table Soccer and five World Series class events, with tens of thousa= nds of participants spanning five continents. Each of the World Series events w= as played on a different "ITSF Official Table," the manufacturers of which include Brunswick's Tornado Table Soccer, Lehmacher's TecBall, Garlan= do, Bonzini, and Roberto-Sport -- the "big five" in the industry (all having been in the table soccer business for over 30 years apiece). Of these most popular foosball tab= les in the world, nearly 50% of the National Teams competing at the World Cup in Hamburg, Germany chose the American-made Tornado as their "home" table.

The = ITSF World Cup of Table Soccer, held in Hamburg, Germany May 24-28, 2006, drew o= ver 1,000 spectators, including many of the over 20,000 news-sport media press corps that were already on station in Hamburg to cover FIFA’s Soccer World Cup. ITSF, together wit= h its host country partner, the German Table Soccer Federation (DTFB) was able to significantly leverage the connection between the two events and highlight table soccer as a professional sport with a news media very hungry for a un= ique story angle.

Additional “Foos Facts” of interest:

Table Soccer skills and t= actics are now taught as a course of study in the athletic curriculums of numerous schools in China and India, and it is officially recognized as a sport by t= he governments of Argentina, China, Italy and France. Italy has a 24/7, 365-da= y a year dedicated table soccer sport training hall, while China has state fund= ing, coaches, tournaments, AND a training facility in the Guangzhou Olympic Cent= er. Many countries like Germany, Belgium, Italy, France and Luxembourg have as = many as 10,000 players in their National Leagues, while the United States has had organized tournaments and pro tours with as much as $1 million in prizes for over 30 years.
