Bubble Hockey


Bubble Hockey


Often called Foosball for Canadians, bubble hockey takes the general idea of table soccer and brings it to the game of ice hockey. The surface of the table is designed to resemble an ice hockey surface. Each side has figures representing three forwards, two defensemen, and one goalie. The figures are manipulated by rods below the surface. Each one slides forward and back along its own narrow slot when the player pushes or pulls on the rod, or rotates to shoot the puck when the player spins the rod.

The most popular tables are Chexx, which pits USA against Russia, and Super Chexx, which has the US defending its title against Canada.

Bubble hockey (or "dome hockey") tables can be pretty darned expensive. Tables often hover between the 500 to 1,000 dollar marks. That said, it can also be a great investment for anyone who is in the process of outfitting a home game room. For more information about bubble hockey, click on the following articles.
