Football table - staff entertainment?

Good evening,
A small company (about 20 employees) buys a football table to put in the staff room - costing about £300. I am right in thinking it is staff entertainment?
Any advice would be appreciated!

    I'd put it to expensed equipment, it being a small-value asset, but yeah, either works :)

    Thanks for this Monsoon, (and sorry for belated thanks...)

    If I expense it to "staff entertainment", does it have to be part of the £150 allowable cost per employee? (the final cost of the table was under £250 so can't really put it as small assets).
    Any advice welcome!

    No, the £150 relates to events/parties etc.
