Simulated soccer game device and method

Abstract

A game device is disclosed herein. The game device is a portable simulated soccer game that provides a substantially rectangular rigid planar surface having indicia of a soccer field disposed thereon. Simulated players are arranged on the field by mating with one of an array of apertures. The game device includes a pair of nets to be placed in a location corresponding with the simulated soccer field. A simulated soccer ball is used by a user to score on an opponent's net. A sleeve is provided having optional attachment features that are used to propel the ball. A user decides the arrangement of simulated players on the field with respect to the ball. The game device provides a game where orientation of simulated players impedes the ability to score points.

1 . A game device comprising:
 a substantially rectangular rigid planar surface which has a plurality of apertures disposed thereon;   a plurality of elongate pieces, each of which has at least one end sized to mate with any of said plurality of apertures allowing said elongate piece to maintain a perpendicular orientation to said substantially rectangular rigid planar surface;   a simulated soccer field which is sized and dimensioned to be disposed on said substantially rectangular rigid planar surface;   a pair of nets coupled to the substantially rectangular rigid planar surface; and   a sleeve configured to attach to a finger of a user, wherein the sleeve comprises an attachment that pivots with gravitational force configured to propel a ball.   
     
     
         2 . The game device of  claim 1 , further comprising an elastic border that is configured to be disposed along a periphery of the substantially rectangular rigid planar surface.

         4 . The game device of  claim 1 , further comprising ornamental dressings configured to attach to said plurality of elongate pieces. 
     
     
         5 . The game device of  claim 1 , wherein the attachment comprises a simulated shoe. 
     
     
         6 . The game device of  claim 1 , wherein the sleeve comprises a material having an elastic property. 
     
     
         7 . The game device of  claim 1 , wherein the sleeve includes indicia used for aiming. 
     
     
         8 . The game device of  claim 1 , wherein said plurality of apertures include corresponding plugs. 
     
     
         9 . The game device of  claim 1 , wherein said simulated soccer field is removably replaceable from said substantially rectangular rigid planar surface. 
     
     
         10 . The game device of  claim 1 , further comprising a scoring apparatus. 
     
     
         11 . The game device of  claim 1 , wherein said pair of nets comprise a rigid material. 
     
     
         12 . A soccer game device comprising:
 a substantially rectangular rigid planar surface, said substantially rectangular rigid planar surface having a plurality of apertures disposed thereon,   a plurality of elongate pieces, said plurality of elongate pieces having at least one end sized to mate with any of said plurality of apertures allowing said elongate piece to maintain a perpendicular orientation to said substantially rectangular rigid planar surface,   a simulated soccer field, said simulated soccer field is sized and dimensioned to be disposed on said substantially rectangular rigid planar surface;   a simulated soccer ball, said simulated soccer ball being substantially scaled with respect to said simulated soccer field; and,   a sleeve configured to be worn by a user, wherein the sleeve comprises an attachment that pivots with gravitational force configured to propel the simulated soccer ball.   
     
     
         13 . The game device of  claim 12 , further comprising a set of instructions; and wherein the game is arranged as a kit. 
     
     
         14 . The game device of  claim 12 , further comprising an elastic border that is configured to be disposed along a periphery of the substantially rectangular rigid planar surface. 
     
     
         15 . The game device of  claim 12 , wherein the plurality of apertures includes only a first row of four apertures, a second row of four apertures, a third row of four apertures, and a fourth row of four apertures. 
     
     
         16 . The game device of  claim 12 , further comprising an elastic border that is configured to be disposed along a periphery of the substantially rectangular rigid planar surface. 
     
     
         17 . The game deice of  claim 12 , wherein said simulated soccer field is removably replaceable from said substantially rectangular rigid planar surface. 
     
     
         18 . The game device of  claim 12 , further comprising a pair of nets which is configured to attach to said substantially rectangular rigid planar surface. 
     
     
         19 . The game device of  claim 12 , wherein the sleeve is configured to attach to a finger of the user. 
     
     
         20 . The game device of  claim 19 , wherein the sleeve comprises a material having an elastic property.
