In Ireland, Tralee TFC (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61569711173090) held a first old rules WASPA event on Fbruary 7. "Made up of 7 players from Munster we played the old style game to the 1967 rules. An extremely tight competition that came down to the final set of fixtures with Tralee Table Football Club James taking the competition by 1 point. William came in 2nd with his Cork stable mate Jeff finishing 3rd. A fantastic competition played in the right spirit. The best player won on the day (unbeaten) but it was anyone's right up to the final whistle. Many thanks to the Cork lads for making the trip and our own players who did us proud."
