Foosball rules?

[STupidExplorer]

My 8 year old recently started getting super competitive at foosball in my house. My mother-in-law is an absolute beast and used to put us to shame. I developed a technique for my midfield players where I use my leg to move my players while using my other two hands to play two other positions. My mother-in-law claims that this is illegal and against the rules. I've yet to find a site that claims you're not allowed to use your leg while playing foosball. Pretty off topic but I thought maybe somebody could chime in thanks
Happy Father's Day to everyone.

Pretty sure your hands must be in touch with the rods/handles at all times. Spinning rules say it's illegal for your hands to leave the rod. I believe that would imply you can't do it with your legs.

Thanks I knew there was a gray area. With that clarification the rule would make sense.
