Last December, we told you about an amazing table football in the colors of Euro 2016 available to travelers at Nantes train station. What if we told you that this table football could now take you to one of the Euro 2016 stadiums? Good news for football fans who don't live near Nantes: the competition will take place all over France!
The table football competition that will take you to Euro 2016...
What if a simple game of table football could open the doors to Euro 2016 for you? This is the absolutely brilliant idea dreamed up by the SNCF: a table football competition, the first prize of which would be a ticket to one of the Euro 2016 matches.
The competition has already begun from April 8th to May 20th, in 28 SNCF stations across the country.
To try to win these priceless tickets, you don't need to be an ITSF member! The competition is open to all fans of the big or small round ball, young and old, amateurs or experienced players.
We can expect an electric atmosphere during the matches, as the stakes are so high. But the two partners have also planned many other prizes to console the defeated competitors.
UEFA 2016 competition: instructions
To try to win the Holy Grail that will open the doors to a Euro 2016 stadium, you'll first need your smartphone. After downloading the "connected table football" app created especially for the occasion, you will have to "invite" other players to compete against you at the station of your choice.
The competition will take place on authentic Bonzini table football in the colors of a soccer field. At the end of each match, the scores must be entered into the app.
Every Friday, a draw will be held under the supervision of a bailiff to determine the winner of the week. If you fail the first time, you can try again the following week!
In addition to great prizes, wonderful encounters with enthusiasts await you at a station near you!
