Typically women enter the sport as playing the goalie position but quickly evolve to the forward position, we’re not “just goalies”, we’re players.  Female players are well sought after as teammates in doubles competitions by the top ranked male players of the sport, they see the level of skill and intensity to win that women offer.  Don’t take female players lightly, they are fierce competitors with the skills to win in any division. So the next time you encounter a female player, don’t think to yourself, “she’s just a girl” because that girl will show you what it takes to play the sport of foosball.  "We’re not the cheerleaders of the sport, we are the sport".

Spanning over 4 decades, there are notable winnings by women in singles and in doubles events against the top-ranked male players.  At times, you’ll find men walking away from a match with a sense of bewilderment for losing to a woman, yet quickly turn that to respect her level of skill demonstrated.  Many of the top-level female players team together to compete against the men in the open events, often is it the women who are victorious. Most importantly, women are the ambassadors of sportsmanship that should be followed by all.
