Hünfeld – A premiere is coming up in the Hünfeld market hall: On Saturday (June 27th) a human table football tournament will be held in front of the old locomotive shed in Hünfeld, in keeping with the Football World Cup. The Konrad-Zuse city has announced that it is now looking for children, young people and adults who would like to register with their teams for this event.
On the weekend of June 27th and 28th, numerous regional exhibitors will transform the engine shed into a market hall againwhile an inflatable live football table provides excitement outside. The human kicker teams, consisting of six to eight players, have only one goal: to shoot the ball into the opponent's goal.

However, this is a challenge because each player in the human football table has their hands fixed to one of the three poles per team. So you can only move together to the right and left, similar to a table football figure. “For success, team spirit is just as important as coordination and a good feel for the ball,” explains Mayor Benjamin Tschesnok.
He himself will try out the human kicker and is looking forward to its premiere in the market hall. The event begins with an opening game at 12:30 p.m. The tournament for children and young people up to 15 years old starts at 1 p.m. We are looking for youth teams from sports clubs, children's and youth fire departments or school classes, among others.
