Farrell and Moore winners in Dublin, Ireland
Report from Andy Fitzpatrick - On a lively Saturday in Cherrytree Walkinstown, the grounds of Cherrytree Dublin Subbuteo Club and TFAI buzzed with the excitement of Republic of Irelands Table Soccer (Subbuteo) 2024 World Cup qualification event. Enthusiasts and competitors alike came together to vie for a spot in the prestigious tournament. John Moore, known as the godfather of Irish Subbuteo, with his extensive World Cup experience, dominated the Veteran competition, securing the top spot with an impressive 19 points. The battle for the second spot was closely contested between Gerry Harrington and Adrian Pigott, with only a point separating them at 15 and 16 points, respectively. However, Gerry's narrow victory over Adrian in the opening round ensured his place on the Republic of Ireland team. Tralee & Munster Subbuteo Clubs David Elton displayed remarkable resilience across the rounds, finishing with 11 points, while William Magnier strategic gameplay earned him a solid 8 points. Despite their best efforts world cup vet Nick Moore and John Kinsella were positioned lower on the table, underscoring the competitive nature of the event. The tournament was not just a display of skill but also a celebration of the spirit of Subbuteo, paving the way for future thrilling encounters in the sport.
In the Open category, Ireland's pro, Mark Farrell, emerged victorious, facing stiff competition, notably a tight 1-0 win against Irish international player Oisín Mór in the opening round game.
I managed to score the leading goal in both matches against Mark, but he won the first game 3-1, and we drew 1-1 in our second game.
Oisín Mor, with close games against Andy losing 1-0 and Drawing 1-1. Well done Oisín, showed exceptional skill but ended the event with 1 point due to the tough competition.
The day was marked by exhilarating matches and commendable sportsmanship, setting a high standard for future competitors in the world of table soccer.
As the Irish qualification event for the Table Soccer (Subbuteo) World Cup 2024 concludes, Ireland looks forward to sending a team to Tunbridge Wells, England, in September this year.
