Heineken Challenges Foosball Fans to a National Tournament, RMB 10,000 to be Won

 
In the spirit of a smaller, more plasticky and wrist-driven World Cup, Heineken are challenging foosball fans to strut their stuff in their 2014 Heineken Foosball Competition over the coming weeks, all the way to the national finals on July 12 in Shanghai.

The 60 preliminary matches will be staged in Beijing, Tianjin and seven cities across the North China Region and prizes include limited edition Heineken Adidas football kits as well as RMB 10,000 prize money for the one lucky tournament winner.
