USTSF:  WHO ARE WE?

In 2002, the United States
Table Soccer Federation (USTSF), a non-profit organization registered in the
State of Washington, was formed and became one of the first member organizations
to affiliate with the International Table Soccer Federation (ITSF).  An all-volunteer staff of veteran
professional player-promoters coordinates the USTSF: Larry Davis, Executive
Director (CO), Kathy Brainard (WA), Bruce Nardoci (NC), Jim Waterman (MD), and
Jim Stevens (CA) with additional assistance from Mury Johnson (MN) and Cissi
Whipple (TX).  The combined USTSF
Staff has over 150 years of experience with table soccer from competitive play,
arcade management, and route operating, to tour staff, tournament direction,
manufacturer sales and product promotions.

USTSF:  WHAT DO WE DO?

The USTSF acts as the United States' officially
designated liaison between the ITSF and the various USA-based
“member” foosball organizations (e.g., the United States Table
Soccer Association [USTSA], Bonzini USA, Independent Foosball Promotions [IFP],
etc.) as well as all the table manufacturers and the United States Olympic
Committee.  The objectives of the
USTSF are:

1.  To
act as the representative agency for the United States in relation to the
ITSF, coordinating all affiliated table soccer associations in meeting the
ITSF’s requirements for Olympic Sport recognition/status,

2.  To
establish and or coordinate qualification status of players to represent the United States
in international competition,

3.  To
extensively promote the sport of table soccer to players and the public alike,
from youth to adult, and from grass-roots all the way up to international
competition levels,

4.  To
ensure fair and equitable representation of U.S. players and play standards in
relation to international competition, rules, disciplinary action, rankings and
more, and

5. To ethically help grow the sport of table soccer
independently of manufacturers and without regard to race, religion or
nationality.

USTSF:  WHAT WE CAN DO FOR YOU!!

The USTSF can provide you or your
business with the opportunity to take advantage of the rapid growth of this
sport, from the local grass roots, youth center, dorm and sports bar level all
the way up through international tournament competition.  More importantly, this is an opportunity
that provides your business with excellent
media exposure in return for your marketing investment – exposure that
reaches far beyond the local softball or bowling team sponsorship of providing
logo’d shirts in exchange for a tax deduction.  Sponsorships and/or donations to the
USTSF, in addition to supporting Team USA, provide the following
benefits:

Presenting Sponsor:  The
Presenting Sponsor is the most prestigious and visible of all sponsorships
available and is reserved for only one organization or company.

Platinum:        Professional
USTSF press release/electronic media distribution inclusion for six months;
Business logo on shirts/hats worn by U.S. National Team/Team USA; USTSF website
banner/link for one year; Master/Pro player demo/interviews/product
endorsements possible/negotiable.

Gold:               Professional
USTSF press release/electronic media distribution inclusion for three months;
Business logo on shirts/hats worn by U.S. National Team/Team USA; USTSF website
banner/link for six months.

Silver:
Professional USTSF press release/electronic media distribution
inclusion; Business logo on shirts worn by U.S. National Team/Team USA; USTSF
website banner/link for three months.

Bronze:           Professional
USTSF press release/electronic media distribution inclusion; Business logo on
shirts worn by U.S. National Team/Team USA.

Preferred:       Inclusion in
tournament write-ups/articles on USTSF website, coin-amusement industry and/or
nightclub and bar trade magazines, etc.

Standard:        Photograph
(8”x10”) autographed by the U.S. National Team.

As you can see, each level entitles the
sponsor/donor to various levels of benefits – sponsorship exposure from
our professional press release distribution alone is worth more than the
Gold Sponsorship level (our last three press releases had more than
550,000 hits/views and were "picked up" by over 1,500 media outlets
worldwide).  And remember, events such as the ITSF World
Championships Finals are international athletic competitions and players
competing from the USA are "Team
USA" -- a team entirely composed of proven champions representing the
United States in competition against the champions from some 20-30 other
countries.  As such, sponsor/donors
will in fact receive both local and long-term,
widespread international
media exposure as well!!

Please see our website: www.ustsf.org,
where you too can contribute via PayPal or credit card.  Or, contribute via check or money order;
send to: USTSF, P.O. Box 343292,

USTSF:  HOW CAN YOU HELP?

Recommendation:  Sponsor USTSF and Team USA!!

The U.S. National Table Soccer Federation is
actively seeking varied levels of sponsorships, donations, and/or other related
support, both in its efforts to promote table soccer (a.k.a.
“foosball”) throughout the USA and in support of the U.S. National
Table Soccer Team as they compete in the upcoming International Table Soccer
Federation (ITSF) World Championships Finals in Italy.

To be held 26-28 October, 2007 in St. Vincent, Valle
D’Aoste, Italy, the ITSF World Finals is the culmination of a 60+ tournament
World Tour, including five World Series Class tournaments and the spectacular World Cup of Table Soccer in
Hamburg, Germany (one of the most sensational events in the 50+ year history of
competitive table soccer worldwide)!
Organizers (the International
Table Soccer Federation [ITSF] and the Italian
Table Soccer Federation) have significantly leveraged media coverage in
connection with the FIFA World Cup of Soccer and other international events,
resulting in a huge upsurge in table soccer publicity and tournament &
league participation worldwide.  Now is the time to ride this growing
wave of excitement!!!

Some other
interesting statistics/info regarding table soccer ("foosball"), both
nationally and internationally...

In response to demands from tournament and league players worldwide who
actively sought increased coordination, organization, standardization and both
official and public recognition of table soccer as not just a game, but as a
professional, competitive sport, the International Table Soccer Federation
(ITSF), was founded in France just over three years ago. Since then, the ITSF
has gained 40 Member Countries and has established player contact in nearly
every country recognized by the United Nations.

The ITSF
World Tour featured 35 sanctioned tour tournaments in 2006, including the World
Cup of Table Soccer and five World Series class events, with tens of thousands
of participants spanning five continents. Each of the World Series events was
played on a different "ITSF Official Table," the manufacturers of
which include Brunswick's Tornado Table Soccer, Lehmacher's TecBall, Garlando,
Bonzini, and Roberto-Sport -- the "big five" in the industry (all
having been in the table soccer business for over 30 years apiece).  Of these most popular foosball tables in
the world, nearly 50% of the National Teams competing at the World Cup in
Hamburg, Germany chose the American-made Tornado as their "home"
table.

The ITSF
World Cup of Table Soccer, held in Hamburg, Germany May 24-28, 2006, drew over
1,000 spectators, including many of the over 20,000 news-sport media press
corps that were already on station in Hamburg to cover FIFA’s Soccer
World Cup.  ITSF, together with its
host country partner, the German Table Soccer Federation (DTFB) was able to
significantly leverage the connection between the two events and highlight
table soccer as a professional sport with a news media very hungry for a unique
story angle.

Additional “Foos Facts” of interest:

Table Soccer skills and tactics
are now taught as a course of study in the athletic curriculums of numerous
schools in China and India, and it is officially recognized as a sport by the
governments of Argentina, China, Italy and France. Italy has a 24/7, 365-day a
year dedicated table soccer sport training hall, while China has state funding,
coaches, tournaments, AND a training facility in the Guangzhou Olympic Center.
Many countries like Germany, Belgium, Italy, France and Luxembourg have as many
as 10,000 players in their National Leagues, while the United States has had
organized tournaments and pro tours with as much as $1 million in prizes for
over 30 years.

Additonal “Foos Facts” of
interest (cont.):

Table soccer
has been featured in movies from documentaries to feature films; television, in
everything from ESPN to the popular show "Friends;" and in television
commercials from Pepsi to Right Guard. Tournament and player sponsors worldwide
have included Pepsi, Schlitz, Carlsberg, Paul Mitchell, Dell, Microsoft, IBM,
and even various clothing manufacturers, among others.

The United States Table Soccer Federation (USTSF) was one of the first member
organizations to affiliate with the ITSF. An all-volunteer staff of veteran
professional player-promoters coordinates the USTSF: Larry Davis, Executive
Director (CO), Kathy Brainard (WA), Bruce Nardoci (NC), and Jim Waterman (MD).
The USTSF acts as the United States' liaison between the International Table
Soccer Federation and the various USA-based foosball organizations (e.g., the
United States Table Soccer Association (USTSA), Bonzini USA, Independent Foosball
Promotions (IFP), etc.) as well as all the manufacturers and the United States
Olympic Committee.

The USTSF
also provides professional press release services for ITSF-sanctioned
tournaments in the United States. Some statistics on a typical USTSF press
release distribution are below, and are provided as a bit of additional
documentation of one of the significant benefits/value of ITSF sanctioning (in
the form of the press release distribution provided by USTSF) and/or possible
media exposure benefits to potential sponsors of tournaments, the U.S. National
Team, or individual players. This is a breakdown of statistics from just one of
our electronic newswire services in connection with the release of the 2006
International Series Tour Kickoff tournament in March. These numbers are after
about two weeks, and do not reflect additional results that may have been
obtained via USTSF's other newswire service, search engine services, the direct
emails, or the direct mail press releases, or numbers since the event ended:

PRESS
RELEASE STATISTICS

TENTH ANNUAL
INTERNATIONAL TABLE SOCCER CHAMPIONSHIP KICKS OF IN LAS VEGAS

- U.S.
National "Foosball" Team Makes Debut in Preparation for World Cup -

Statistic Count/Description

Reads 246,054* / This number tells you how many times your
press release was accessed ('hits") from our site and other distribution
points where we have the ability to measure a click through. This number does
not include the number of journalists who have received your release through
email.  In addition there are online
distribution points that we currently have no ability to track.

Estimated Pickup 743 / This number estimates the number of
times your press release was picked up by a media outlet.  This does not tell you how many times
your story appears in the media.  It
simply attempts to estimate media interest of your release.

Prints 60 / This is the number of times that someone has
printed your press release.  We
measure this by the number of times that the "printer friendly
version" link is pressed.  In
reality, only a small percentage of users actually click this link before
printing a release.

Additonal “Foos Facts” of
interest (cont.):

USTSF press releases target
local, state, national and international news and sports wire-services,
websites, television stations, radio stations, newspaper and magazine media,
and local convention, tourism and chamber of commerce organizations; recreation
and amusement industry trade magazines and media; national and international
sports organizations; local, state and national soccer organizations and media;
universities, pool halls, sports bars and amusement machine distributors,
operators and locations in the area of the promoted tournament. Of interest,
you may also want to try a cut-and-paste of the press release headline (above)
and use it to do a search on almost any Internet search engine (try yahoo news,
excite, dogpile, metacrawler, webcrawler, lycos news, msnbc, etc). By also
using various search engine services, we get highest placement on internet
search inquiries, which means getting your tournament information into the
hands of millions of people worldwide at a substantially faster rate (than if
it was solely posted on a website, for example).

* Note: Total views ('hits') for our last three press releases exceeded
550,000 (with worldwide media "pickup" of over 1,500 outlets)
indicating an exceptional untapped interest in the sport of table soccer. USTSF
first began wire service/search engine enhanced distribution with the IFP
SuperBowl of Foosball in January, but will be using these additional
distribution techniques from now on...
