Subbuteo ( ) is a tabletop football game in which players simulate association football by flicking miniature players with their fingers. Its name derives from the scientific name of the hobby hawk, Falco subbuteo. Peter Adolph (1916–1994), the game's creator, had wanted to call it "Hobby", but he was unable to obtain the trademark.
While most closely associated with the football game, versions of Subbuteo based on other team sports, such as cricket, both codes of rugby, and hockey, have also been produced.
