FC St. Pauli surprisingly wins the silver medal in table football!

FC St. Pauli has written a remarkable chapter in the history of table football and recently became German runner-up in the 1st table football Bundesliga. The final round took place on September 20th and 21st, 2025 in Limburg an der Lahn, where the club's first men's team surprisingly made it to the final and was proud to receive the silver medal, as [fcstpauli.com](https://www.fcstpauli.com/news/der-fc-st-pauli-ist-deutscher-visemeister-im-tisch Fußball) reports.

At the beginning of the season, the FC St. Pauli players wanted to start with the goal of staying in the league. However, on the first Bundesliga weekend in March they managed to beat last year's champions Silpion Hamburg by a narrow 42:39. A real mood maker! Further victories against teams from Bonn, Oldenburg, Überbande Hamburg, Koblenz and Schovelkoten Münster catapulted them up the table. The defeat against St. Wendel with 27:42 was a small setback, but after seven match days they had already achieved six wins and were in an excellent second place, which ensured they stayed in the league before the final weekend.

Final against Boofken Münster

With fourth place in the preliminary round, FC St. Pauli even qualified for the play-offs for the German championship. In the semi-finals they won against the Würzburger Kickers with 43:41 and thus secured their place in the final, where they faced Boofken Münster. The team from Münster was (not surprisingly) made up of national players from several countries and therefore posed a real challenge. Despite all their efforts, St. Pauli had to admit defeat, but they were very happy about the silver medal.

Next February 2026, FC St. Pauli will take part in the ITSF World Champions League in Messina, Italy. This promises to be an exciting adventure and the table football department is now looking for sponsors to support them on the trip to Sicily. The enthusiasm and desire to prove oneself internationally is palpable.

The challenge of the table football Bundesliga

The 1st table football Bundesliga has established itself as the toughest national team competition in the world. Only the best teams can compete here and it is a real feat to gain a foothold in the league. The current challenges and the exciting tournaments that lie ahead increase the anticipation of what is to come. Like the events described in the tablesoccer.org, which also offer a variety of exciting competitions in international table football.

All in all, FC St. Pauli has a promising future in table football. Whether in the league or on the international stage – fans can be excited to see what the next adventure will bring!
