IMPORTANT NOTICE
The United States consumer product safety commission has adopted and published
“Guidelines For Movable Soccer Goal Safety”
. These guidelines offer information on
the installation, use, and storage of full-size portable soccer goals and through these
guidelines; it is the commission’s intent to help prevent serious injuries or death resulting
from accidental soccer goal tip over.
Securely anchoring portable soccer goals, at all times, is one important and
effective way to improve soccer goal safety. The proper selection of appropriate
anchoring devices is dependent upon a number of factors and is unique to individual
circumstances. Key elements to consider are:
1)
Goal weight, inherent stability and type of construction;
2)
Local field conditions and soil moisture content;
3)
Expected usage level and overall degree of field supervision;
4)
The need to relocate or remove the goal on a regular or continuing basis.

the best choice for your individual application.
