Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the box by cleaning it and deciding which side will be the playing field.
2. Mark four parallel lines across the width of the box where the rods will go, spaced evenly to allow player movement.
3. Using a drill or awl, carefully create holes on each side of the box along the marked lines. Ensure holes are aligned to allow rods to pass through smoothly.
4. Insert the wooden dowels or metal rods through the holes.
5. Attach the clothespins or clips onto the rods as players. Space them evenly and secure with glue or rubber bands if needed.
6. Place the small plastic cups at each end inside the box to serve as goals. Secure them with glue or tape.
7. Use the permanent marker or paint to decorate the playing field with boundaries and center line.
8. Place the rubber ball or marble inside the box to serve as the foosball.
9. Test the rods by sliding them back and forth and rotating them to move the players.
10. When done playing, remove the rods and clips, and store everything inside the box for easy transport.
