Title: Ball type and size for Patterson Foosball Match Table
Post by: Snthms155 on February 25, 2025, 11:17:35 PM
Hello all: I got my hands on a coin-op foosball match table, made in West Germany and imported by the American Youth Marketing Corporation. I'm m guessing late '60s. The table has a textured glass surface. The balls provided with the original table are clearly not the originals.

It's in pretty good shape -- but I've noticed that it can be a little hard to trap balls, etc. I suspect that's in part because the balls are hard -- not cork. So I ordered some Bonzini cork balls that are .35mm.

While I'm waiting for those to arrive, I'm wondering if anyone knows what the original balls would have been with this table?
