Football The field is very easy to make. You need cardboard, white paper, scissors, pencil, ruler, glue and tape.

Still need a big one box.

We make gates from small ones boxes and mesh.

Making the markings

Cover with white stripes.

Tightening football tape with tape for strength and smoothness.

This is how beautiful it turned out.

Here's how you can use it:

1. Finger football.

You can play from 4 to 6 players: 2 goalkeepers, the rest football players. You can only play with your index and middle fingers (like two legs football player) . You can take a rubber ball. Motor skills of the hand and fingers develop well.

Boys and girls enjoyed playing with their fingers and scoring goals.

2. Respiratory football.

You can play from 2 to 4 players. Make a ball out of paper (you can use papier-mâché). Using your breath, blow the ball into the goal from the middle of the field. Who is more for a while or up to a certain amount.

3. Puppet football.

Play in teams too. The players make small toys. You can also make players from natural material, from plasticine, from clay football team.

I want to talk about the idea of ​​​​creating a football game for girls. After attending the courses, the teacher showed us several games that can be made.

The base of the game (see picture) is plywood measuring 1160x580x20 mm. Side walls with a height of 160 mm are also made from it. Holes are drilled in the walls through which rods will be threaded to “control” the players. The structure is held together with glue and screws, and the corners are reinforced with metal squares. To prevent the ball from getting stuck in the corners, glue triangular blocks into them.

Make the game rods to which the athlete figures are attached from a thin metal tube Ø 10 mm. Handles for them can be made of wood or plastic tubes with an internal Ø 10 mm can be used.

Holes in the side walls for the rods are made according to their outer diameter. On the opposite wall, a support is attached to each rod: a flange with a soldered tube into which the rod will be pushed.

A - playing field; B - control rod with support: 1 - support, 2 - metal plate, 3 - tube, 4 - pin, 5 - plastic sleeve. 6 - felt ring, 7 - limiter ring; B - placement of players: 1 - goalkeeper line, 2 - defenders, 3 - midfielders, 4 - forwards. X is the distance of the longitudinal movement of the rod.

Each rod has a plastic restrictive ring; the distance between him and the wall will determine the lateral movement of this row of players.

Make football player figures from 5 mm thick plywood and attach them to the rods with M3 bolts.

The gate can be made from iron or measuring wire Ø2 mm and wire mesh.

A soccer ball is a wooden, rubber or plastic ball Ø 25-30 mm.

I couldn’t resist and bought a large table football kicker “Tabletop Football” at a very tempting price in the Lenta hypermarket. A beautifully crafted gaming table in bright colorful packaging became a gift for February 23rd. The design of the game will just satisfy the needs of beginner kicker players. In addition, this game is an excellent occasion for friends to get together for an interesting and exciting pastime. The gaming table is delivered partially assembled. The final installation involves several steps and is done by hand. Detailed step-by-step instructions with photos and videos are given below.

Instructions for assembling your own board game kicker

Tabletop Football is designed for stationary installation on a gaming table or on the floor. This football model from TableTop is equipped with six game handles with 3 players each. For greater convenience of play, the platform is installed on legs, making it convenient to play this table football even on the floor. Table football is delivered unassembled. An assembly tool in the form of a key screwdriver is included in the kit. Assembling the kicker does not require special knowledge. Before assembly, remove a large bag of parts from the packaging box and check the completeness. The package should contain:

1. Six bars with Chinese players (T1, T2, T3, T4, T5 and T6)
2. Two short sides with gates (E1)
3. Two long panels (E2)
4. Playing field with artificial turf (E3)
5. Two scoreboards for counting goals scored (E4)
6. Four clamps for fastening the scoreboard (E5)
7. Four legs (E6)
8. 12 shock absorbing washers (A1)
9. Six handles (A2)
10. Six rod caps (A3)
11. Eight self-tapping screws with a washer for fastening the strips (B1)
12. Eight screws with washer and nut for securing the legs (B2)
13. Six self-tapping screws for attaching handles to rods (B3)
14. Two soccer balls
15. Hex key - Phillips screwdriver

Assembling the kicker involves several steps.

Step 1. Using self-tapping screws B1, we connect together the two short sides E2 and the long panel E1 with our own hands. We tighten the screws with a hex key. The grooves of the sides and panels should be inside and aligned with the edges. Do not use much force to avoid turning the screw (the panels are made of MDF).

Step 2. Insert the E3 playing board into the grooves of the assembled frame.

Step 3. Install shock-absorbing washers A1 on rods T1-T6. See photo.

Step 4. Install the rods with players into the holes in panel E2. Please refer to the attached photos as a guide. Chinese players on each team must face the opposing team.

Step 5. Attach the second long panel E2 to the frame. Please note that the edges of the playing field must be in the grooves.

Step 6. Install the scoreboard. Watch the video.

Step 7. Install protective caps A3 on the edges of the rods without holes. See photos and videos.

Step 8. Sequentially fix handles A2 on the edges of the rods with holes using self-tapping screws B3.

Step 9. We sequentially install the E6 legs using two supplied B2 screws. Please note that the end of the leg must fit tightly to the plane of the playing field. See photo.

A couple of months ago it was decided to make a table for playing table football out of wood and Aliexpress. 9 products were purchased from 5 sellers. Under the cut there are a lot of letters and photos about how I got to this point and what came of it.

At one of the youth drinking parties in a rented cottage, instead of traditional billiards, the owners set up table football. I was hooked, and I spent the whole night at the table, forgetting about the party and receiving enough punches for it. Over time, the desire took shape into confidence, and since a place for installation was found in the attic, from which it was decided to make a recreation room with football and air hockey (Can be seen in the background of the finished product).

In the vastness of the well-known store, quite a lot of products on this topic were found. In terms of size, everything was taken at random, and in the end I was fortunately right. There are several standard sizes of products available on Ali, which differ in the thickness of the rod on which they will be attached. I tried to find information about which is better and more correct, but I couldn’t. The choice fell on 5/8 inches, that is, 16 mm in Russian.

Total purchased:

Excellent players, they sat perfectly and tightly on the pipe. However, the hole for the screw is designed for 4 mm, on the reverse side there is a 6-sided groove for the nut, a regular 4 mm nut hangs there. A 5 mm nut fits there ideally. (Perhaps you can find 4 mm nuts of larger size on sale, but I haven’t seen any of them). The problem was solved - a 5 mm nut was placed under the 4 mm nut, fortunately the height allowed this to be done so that nothing would stick out or interfere with the outside.

There were no problems with the handles. They do not slip in the hand and fit tightly. The hole goes the entire length of the handle, so it doesn't bend to the sides.

It turned out to be the most problematic part along with the barbells, but I will tell you this below.

They work like springs. With a sharp push, the bar can bounce off the walls 2 times.

The same problem as with the figures of football players, I had to add 5 mm nuts. Otherwise everything is fine.

Everything is fine. They protect perfectly. I got hit in the arm with a barbell once without a plug, and I don’t take them off anymore.

They think correctly. I didn't notice any differences :). They were chosen solely for reasons of low price.

It worked out very well with the balls. After reading about the types of soccer balls, I decided to order both types. White plastic, they jump perfectly, there is practically no friction. But they turned out to be too small, and now they lie like dead weight.
The cork ones jump noticeably weaker and are very dull, plus they haven’t been properly polished yet, but they fit well in size, and you can play with them. However, the seller turned out to be generous and added 3 more plastic purple balls to them, and now they turned out to be the best ones. They are a little smaller in size than cork ones, but due to the fact that plastic ones are very convenient to play with.

I will describe the assembly process, focusing on the most memorable moments.
Decent drawings were found somewhere on the Internet. I started making them according to them, then moved on to independent calculations, since the assembly methods there were ancient, like those of a caveman. The thickest plywood I could find available in my city was used. It was fastened with corners. HPL plastic purchased from furniture makers was glued onto the table. Bought in a roll. In the background of the photos you can see the air hockey table I'm making from a leftover piece of HPL plastic (I also bought the washers and bits from Ali, I’ll write a review when I’m done). A stencil of the borders was cut out on the protective film and spray painted. There were certain difficulties with the internal structure of the gate, I had to rack my brains. This was all done before the players themselves arrived. All that was left was to wait for these little people.

Bearings and football players arrived. And then the fun began. I knew what I was getting into and decided to buy barbells. 16 mm chrome-plated pipes are sold in everyday life as furniture fittings for the kitchen. They were bought at a furniture store. Only for furniture makers there is no particular difference from the thickness of the walls of these pipes, they will not suffer from the imperfectly round cross-section of the pipe, and the fact that their pipes are not 16 mm at all, but from 15.8 mm to 16.1 mm in diameter, does not particularly bother them either . So the first pipes purchased were sent to the basement, where everything that would be a shame to throw away is stored, and the search for new, more suitable ones began. And this turned out to be a difficult task. Thick-walled pipes (1.5 mm or more) only on order with a wait of 2 weeks, and it is not a fact that they will be 100% round and exactly 16 mm. The price was also not attractive.
As a result, 60 meters of pipe were purchased in bulk (the price they cost me was the same as 8 meters of pipe from 1 batch, i.e. about 2 thousand rubles). The walls were 0.9 mm thick, the diameter was ideal for football players, the pipes were round, with a small protruding seam. Subsequently, the thickness of the walls turned out to be insufficient, the defenders’ bar (the longest) during a sharp attack from the extreme extended position, it bent and was clamped in the bearing. Epoxy was poured into the pipes, which gave them both a pleasant weight and the rigidity I needed so much.
Bearings are a separate issue. I bored them at least 5 times because... I was afraid to take off too much. Apparently the bearings were made according to all the canons of the metric systems, and were exactly 15.8 mm, which corresponds to 5/8 inches. The pipes were also made by the Chinese, and some of the samples I selected reached 16.2 mm in diameter. But I bored it out, lubricated it with silicone grease, and now it runs like clockwork.
I also struggled with the corners of the table. Having seen enough on the Internet, diagonal cuts were made in the table at the corners, and the corners were raised by 5-7 mm so that the ball would roll out of the corner back to the players. I read on the Internet that it would be nice to make a cut along the side wall, but it seemed to me an unnecessary perversion and everything remained as is. As a result, the shock absorber turned out to be a little thicker than we would like, and if the ball ends up against the wall, then it is impossible for a player of the same line to pick it up from there. You have to pass to the enemy. Everything can be solved by installing a small side.
I spent about 2 weeks on everything, fortunately I had enough free time. Assembled, sanded, painted. I play with my younger sister. Happy as an elephant.

Some photos of the assembly process

And what came of it

In conclusion, I can say that I am satisfied with all the products. In Russian online stores, everything is much more expensive, but some things are not available at all. It's nice to play. Everyone at home is happy. After the final assembly, I realized that everything had to be done on a metal frame. Would have avoided many problems with backlashes and bends in the wood (I think I’ll install a frame of square pipes underneath in the near future to give it a nice heaviness and torsional rigidity). If you have time, desire and hands, and most importantly where to put it, then I advise it.
P.S.: I don’t see the point in fully considering the assembly with all its subtleties, sizes and types of connections. This is not a specialized forum for this. A product purchased on Ali is reviewed and it is shown that it makes an excellent kicker for the home.

P.P.S.: The photo shows quite a lot of assembly jambs and my crankiness, but please refrain from giving advice on how it could have been done better.
