Claudio Colpani winner in Brescia

The 10th edition of the Subbuteo Old rules "Endurance Colpani Cup" took place in the usual municipal hall made available by the city of Brescia.

The event featured 28 players from Lombardy, Liguria, Emilia Romagna, Veneto, Trentino, and Friuli, representing as many as 12 different clubs.

The tournament format included 4 groups of 7 players each (round robin), followed by semi-finals and final rounds divided into three groups: Gold, Silver, and Bronze.

In the Gold group, the host Claudio Colpani emerged victorious after a hard-fought final against Federico Milan.

The Silver group was won by Lorenzo Mentasti, who defeated Francesco Molinari, while Giorgio Manfioletti claimed victory in the Bronze group.

A total of 94 matches were played, each consisting of a 2 x 15 minutes time, all conducted without referees, a testament to the players’ outstanding fair play, even in a competitive tournament setting.

The 11th edition is already scheduled for the beginning of new year, to be held in a larger venue where an even greater number of enthusiasts will be welcomed.
