Pro Soccer (1968)

Object of the game : To be the player that coaches the soccer team scoring the most goals. To Play the Game: Players take it in turns to move 3 player figures & then roll dice for how far the 'kicked' ball travels. Includes 20mm miniature soccer players in red & white plastic, a ball piece, A3 size map of playing field, 2 six-sided dice, rules on the bottom of the box, & an A5 size reference guide booklet. The booklet provides diagrams of how to play such manoeuvres as: kicking the ball, defensive blocking, passing the ball, team passing, defensive formations, out of bounds play, corner kicks, penalty kicks, goal kicks, throwing doubles and scoring goals. The chess-like squares are 15mm wide & represent 4m of playing field (about 1:300 scale). The playing pieces for the figures are about 20mm high (about 1:75 scale). The procedures for playing the game lend themselves to expansion & variants. Looks more complicated than Table Soccer according to paperwork provided.
