FORZAFlash Pop-Up Football Goals [2.5ft, 4ft or 6ft] - Portable Goal Posts for Shooting Practice - Pop-Up in Minutes | Single or Pair of Goals

My daughter is nearly two, and since she started walking she's enjoyed kicking footballs, so we recently started football classes with Little Kickers. The bulk of the sessions are mostly about fitness and developing coordination, with a bit of ball control thrown in, but there's always a bit that involves scoring goals in pop up nets like these. The problem is, as she's still so young, and the lessons are only weekly, she wasn't really grasping the aim of kicking the ball into the net - she'd either run past the ball into the net herself or else try to rescue the ball from the goalmouth (perhaps she'll be a keeper when she's older!). That was obviously very cute, but she'd get a bit confused and frustrated when the coach tried to show her what she was supposed to do.Anyway, I got a pair of these 4ft Forza nets for our garden and they're exactly the same size and build quality as the brand used at the classes, but much better value (and, I'd argue, a cooler colour, but that's obviously down to taste). Now we can have a quick kick about in the garden a few times a week, and she's quickly got the hang of what they're for. Build quality is excellent, and they're easy to put up and only a slight faff to collapse and store in the included bag (although I leave them up most of the time). I'm confident they'll last a very long time, and when they do wear out or break, I'll have no hesitation in buying another pair, assuming she continues to be interested in kicking a ball!EDIT: my daughter's now three and a half, and still likes a kickabout, however we moved abroad and unfortunately I made the fatal error of loaning them to a neighbour... I told them to leave them by the door unfolded, because there's obviously a knack to getting them in the bag, but they decided to have a go anyway, and simply snapped all the rods in two places to get them flat. Not the sharpest tool in the box, this fella. Anyway, now we're abroad, postage on a new pair is almost the same as the nets themselves (£25!) so I suppose I'm going to have to either find a different supplier or perhaps just buy some fibreglass rods and repair them myself. Either way, I'm updating to say these were still an excellent purchase and remarkably durable - just dont try to fold the fibreglass bits in half!

I coach U-8 girls on weekends and we use a set of these for technical drills, like closing space when defending, controlling and shooting, etc. I decided to get a set for continuity of training during the week with my six-year old, but also for myself and my wife as we both play. They're great; very sturdy, easy to pup up and fold back down! I avoid giving it welly when shooting myself, but super useful for polishing your passing precision. Great buy whether it's for coaching, mini-matches with kids, or adults' practicing precision!

I bought a set of these to use for our U8's training sessions, they were by far the cheapest options available at the time. They are light and quite sturdy and we've had no breakages despite having several balls hit into them over several sessions. They are extremely quick to assemble and pack away. My only complaints are that they don't sit flat to the ground—either the front or back is slightly raised up depending on how you peg them down. If they are raised at the front then the strap at the front is also raised up from the ground which could prove to be a trip hazard (and it's annoying). The only way to rectify this is to use tent style pegs to fully pin it down rather than use the supplied plastic pegs. I also don't like the colour much, would prefer more traditional white coloured nets but I guess that's branding for you.They are not massive, there's no point in putting a GK in front of them for instance, but they are a suitable target for foundation stage players during training sessions. They hold about 6-7 size 3 balls comfortably. More than adequate for regular gardens though.Needless to say I quickly ordered a second set so we can vary the number of goals in use for different types of game based practice.

Excellent training aid. My two boys love them. Easy to set up and fold away, very compact within the supplied storage bags. Pegs attached to hold the goals in place when windy and the hi-vis colours and reflective stripes make it great as it gets dusky. Very sturdy and well made, ours have taken a battering already with no issues. Excellent goals for younger players to hone their skills and match practice and for anyone to improve their shooting accuracy. Great supplier, came before the expected delivery and excellent value for the hours of use you’ll get out of them.

Sturdy products, great quality son loves them

I use these twice a week with U10s through to U13s, and they appear to be standing up well. ( I thought I'd wait a few weeks first before writing the review) My only problem is I am on 3G astro so they need to be weighted down, the design doesn't really allow for you to do this very well - this is not a problem with the design more how I am using them - so if using on astro where you can't use pegs a different design may be better for you. But cannot be beaten for sturdiness and ease of use - both setting up and putting away.

These are great for todlers but not for juniors

Goals are good, bright colours and easy to put up. Just feel a little smaller than expected.
