Table football, also known as gitoni, foosball, or babyfoot, is a table-top game and sport that is loosely based on association football.
The most common English names are table football, footzy, bar football and foosball, though table soccer is also used. Among French-style players it is known as baby-foot. The name foosball is a loose transliteration of the German word "Fußball", which itself means simply football.
