Well it’s been quite a week for Subbuteo in Ireland thanks very much to Traleetoday!
Leading on from our club notes from last week the local, national press and rte radio jumped on the Subbuteo bandwagon to publish some nice publicity of the game.
So we had a nice article in the Kerry’s Eye followed by write-ups in the Star and Mirror. This was followed by a mention on a few local radio stations and a lengthy chat and a game from Andy Fitzpatrick in Dublin on Radio 1’s Ray Darcy show.
Locally we got our first meeting in our new venue at The Klub at Strand St underway. It was a tight competition in the end with Cian just pipping Dave to top spot and Cork’s very own William Magnier taking 3rd place.
Our teams of choice were Italy, West Ham and Arsenal. We welcome on board new members Greg and Tralee man Jerry who now resides in Cork.
On Saturday 26 November Subbuteo goes National as the final and 5th Irish Open of the years takes place in Gorey in County Wexford.
This will see players coming together from the UK, Ulster, Dublin and Munster playing in a full days action of Subbuteo Table Football on the east coast.
The Tralee and Munster Subbuteo Club are actively seeking new members. All gear is provided so no worries there. You can get information on the club or Subbuteo in general via Subbuteo Table Football Munster on Facebook. Or email daveelton1964@yahoo.ie or call Dave at 0868865864.
Our next meeting is scheduled for final week in November. Touch base for final dates and details.
