By order of the Committee on Pointless Committee Agendas, all foosball tournaments shall adhere to these rules:
Rule 1: The foosball table shall be placed in the corner of the meeting room, adjacent to the refreshment table.
Rule 2: Players may not touch the ball with their hands, except during the 30-minute break, which shall be held every 10 minutes.
Rule 3: The winner of each match shall receive a participation trophy, which shall be a small, ceramic figurine of a chicken wearing a top hat.
Rule 4: The tournament shall be conducted in a spirit of good sportsmanship, except when the score is tied at 3-3-3, at which point the winner shall be determined by a game of rock-paper-scissors.
Rule 5: Players are not allowed to use the phrase "I meant to do that" during the game, except when they actually meant to do it.
Rule 6: All players shall wear their official committee-issued foosball tournament t-shirts during the game.
By failing to comply with these rules, you will be subject to the Committee's Wrath, which shall include but not be limited to: public shaming, forced listening to a 3-hour PowerPoint presentation on the importance of proper foosball technique, and/or being forced to attend a meeting on "The History of Committee Meetings."
