Tabletop soccer set for kick-off

Football fever should have well and truly kicked in around the marketing industry by now. David Beckham’s even appearing on the cover of Marie Claire this month, so you know things are hotting up.

And by now all you media types should be gagging for a slice of the action yourself. But if you can’t be bothered to put your shorts on and run about for 90 minutes, why not be a hero through a more strategic version – the Subbuteo World Cup.

The event, organised by the Leaflet Company, kicks off on May 23 at Chelsea Football Club’s Stamford Bridge home in West London and teams of two are being invited to enter.

You can even bet at the Marketing Week-sponsored event, if you’ve got the balls.
