I've read many threads on this forum but I can't seem to find a breakdown of the local tournaments. I'm hoping you guys will illuminate the subject. How many regular tournaments are there? Where/when are they held? Who do I contact to get involved? Are the rules standardized? Could I bring more of my foosball buddies? I look forward to meeting you guys. Game on!

BC's gets the biggest turnouts, with the toughest players...I would get there early to play lots of pick ups, before the actual tourney. You can bring as many fooser buddies as you want, but you might want to prepare yourself for the level of competition in "real" tournaments. It can be a little crazy when you're first exposed to it, and 99% of newbies never come back :-P Here's a great link to rate yourself: http://www.foosball.com/content.php?page=110 Welcome to CO Foos! Everyone here is pretty nice, but we can get out of hand with trash talk. X Edited by user Wednesday, June 4, 2014 4:42:00 PM(UTC)  | Reason: Not specified

You can see how you stack up before playing some of the other tournies. Davin can also evaluate your games and make recommendations. It's a start anyways...welcome to CoFoos. P

Bob's tourney runs on Tuesdays, but if you let me know when you'll be around I can probably muster up some foosers to come jam.

Scott it seems like they have never played tourneys. He's asking if the rules are standardized and if he can bring friends My tourney on Mondays would be a good place to start Correct. I host a Foosball Night each week, but I have yet to play a public tournament. Going off of the 'Rank Yourself' page linked earlier, I'm somewhere between 900-1000. My girlfriend is probably around 800. I don't mind getting smoked by a superior player. Combined with regular practice, it's gotta be the fastest way to learn.

Combined with regular practice, it's gotta be the fastest way to learn. If you add up all the players going regularly to America's, Attic (Tuesdays), BC's, and Bobs, I would say there is: 1-2 players 2000 or above 2-3 players 1800 3-4 players 1500 Most others 1200 (Jedi, for example) A handful of 1000's and 9000's There are a few 1800-2000+'s around that rarely show at these events. Most players at these events would rate themselves at least one level above what they really are. I am one of the 50 or more 1200's out there. Why don't some of the rest of you reading this rate yourself and I will tell you is you are correct or not.

We squashed you, so I'm gonna say- City= 900 points Boogie= 5100 points Woop Woop!

So, let's play a bc's soon- X and Baller will just hand over the money in the parking lot at 7pm, and have a second chance BYP after we leave.
