Abstract
A combination table for both billiards and football table games comprising a billiards table, a supporting seat, and a football table is disclosed. The supporting seat has several supporting legs fixedly attached to the bottom of the billiards table. And the football table can be easily combined with the billiards table via an engaging frame flange inserted into a receiving frame groove. The billiards table is provided with descending tracks communicating corner pockets and side pockets of the billiards table with a ball collecting slot. The football table has slanting plates disposed at the inner side of goals. By means of the descending tracks and the slanting plates, a ball either billiards or football and whether dropped into the ball pocket directly or shot through the goal and then descended onto the pocket, will roll automatically downwards along the sloped descending track and end up finally at the ball collecting slot for retrieval.
