Welcome to our website

 
FROM 2017 TO 2023 THE SOUTH STAFFS SUBBUTEO CLUB HAS BEEN BASED AT BROWNHILLS COMMUNITY CNTRE, PELSALL ROAD, BROWNHILLS BY THE TIN-MAN ISLAND, MEETING EVERY 3RD SUNDAY. THE 2022 SEASON COMMENCES SUNDAY 6TH FEBRUARY. WE WELCOME NEW AND RETURNING PLAYERS, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO HAVE REDISCOVERED THEIR SUBBUTEO GEAR IN THE LOFT DURING COVID. AS WE HAVE OVER A DOZEN MEMBERS ALL OVER THE MIDLANDS WE ALSO SOMETIMES PLAY AT EACH OTHERS HOMES (MAX 4 PEOPLE). WHETHER YOU WANT TO PLAY REGULARLY OR JUST WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE IT, PHONE US ON 01902-636302 FOR A CHAT.
 
SINCE 2022, WITH A SHRINKING MEMBERSHIP CAUSED BY STAR PLAYERS STARTING UP NEW CLUBS IN THEIR HOME TOWNS, IT BECAME UNECONOMICAL TO CONTINUE PAYING £25 A SESSION AT BROWNHILL AND WE REVERTED TO PLAYING AT EACH OTHERS HOMES BY MUTUAL ARRANGEMENT. A NEW VENUE WAS FOUND IN 2025 AT THE ROBIN HOOD PUB AT THE CRESCENT, WILLENHALL THANKS TO LANDLADY ALEX MURPHY WHO LETS US PLAY THERE ON THE 2ND TUESDAY EVE OF EVERY MONTH. This attreacted 8 new beginner players so we started us a sattelite club there. After 12 months several of them were ready to play South Staffs TFC players, and this 'playing in the public eye' will hopefully be our salvation, as all the South Staffs  veterans are now claiming their pensions !
 

We hope to populate this site with much historical and current information which will confirm our vintage, and assure anyone looking at the site, that despite a decimation of membership, we are still ticking along, keeping  subbuteo in Staffordshire (and Shropshire where we can help) alive and well. You're never too old to play Subbuteo, or make a return to the game you played as a teenager - most of our members are aged between 30 and 60, with half a dozen of their children also taking up the game, including some young ladies, so come on and give it a try! Going into 2017, the South Staffs TSC has 21 members, the Wolverhampton TFC has 8 and a website, and the North Staffs has 3 active players and many 'on-line' contibutors to their website.
