Foosball Fun in Fed Square

Kia kicked off the World Cup soccer season today in Federation Square Melbourne with the 'Kia World Cup road show'. The promotional event was a celebration of the car companies sponsorship of the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil.

The festivities featured a big Foosball table specially made for the event. The two teams consisted of 11 players, each made in recycled Oregon. They were turned and hand shaped by Auburn Woodturning and finished in high gloss enamels of red and white. Giants in comparison with the regular football table game, the players were 200mm high by 75mm in diameter.  

Packed with kids the game was in high demand throughout the day, providing plenty fun family entertainment.
