Football Goal Buyers Guide

Different Types of Goals

Depending on your requirements, there is a great selection of different types of goals available to purchase. If you’re looking for a no-fuss solution, then why not invest in a pop-up goal, it takes seconds to assemble and they’re usually the cheapest option.

PVC goals are also very popular, with Forza and Samba utilising the lightweight and weatherproof properties to make affordable goals.

Steel framed goals are durable if they’re galvinised but you’ll be paying a premium compared to powder coated or paint coated goals.

Aluminium goals are better still due to their lightweight properties but these are also very expensive!

Also, to all our international visitors, it’s Football not Soccer!


Samba or Forza Goals?

If you’re in the market for a new football goal, you’ll probably have stumbled across both the Samba and Forza brand. Both offer affordable portable goals that are well reviewed.

We recommend buying whatever is better priced at the time, as the build quality is nearly the same.


Which Goal Size Should You Get?

Make sure you get the right size goal for your garden. 11-a-side FA regulations require the following goal sizes – which of course no parent has to adhere to!

  • Professional: 24 x 8 feet
  • Youth (13-14): 21 x 7 feet
  • Youth (11-12): 16 x 7 feet
  • Mini Football (Soccer) (7-10): 12 x 6 feet

#1 Best Seller

Amazon.co.uk
as of 19/03/2024 1:42 am

Suitable For : Indoor & Outdoor Use | Size : 6 x 4 feet 
Features :
Weatherproof, Essential Locking System, Supplied with Net, Anchor & Everything you need to get Started.


It’s easy to see why the Forza 6 x 4 foot goal is a best seller. It’s affordable and comes supplied with everything you need to get your home football pitch set up.

Perfect for aspiring footballers from as young as 2, although it gets a little small when the little ones are older than 10.

For ~£25 more you can buy the ultra-kit which comes with a football, target net and carry bag. We recommend spending the extra if you intend to take this goal to the park or have more than one of them.

Pros
  • Great Value for Money
  • Easy to Assemble
  • Set & Forget – Fully Weatherproof & Rustproof
Cons
  • Too Small for Older Kids

Denny International Dual Mini Goals

Best Budget Mini Goals (Available in Single or Dual)

as of 19/03/2024 1:42 am

Suitable For : Indoor & Outdoor Use | Size : 2.7 x 2 feet 
Features :
1 x Carry Box 2 x Pop Up White Football Goals Post 8 x Yellow Ground Pegs, 1 Small Football And 1 air pump to inflate the Football 1 x Yellow card, 1 x Red card, 12 x Yellow joining bends, 12 x Blue pipes to built up the goal post


If you’re looking for an easy to set up goal system for the really little kids and budget is a major consideration, then why not buy the Denny International twin (or single) goal set.

It comes with two goals, a football, pegs, air pump, yellow & red card (who doesn’t love being the dad referee?) and all connectors needed to get started.

The goals are pretty small, so we’d recommend these goals for 2-5 year olds. Older kids may find them too small and they’re a bit fragile, so while they’re cheap, you don’t want to have to buy a new set every weekend.

Pros
  • Cheap & Cheerful
  • Full Set
Cons
  • Very Small Goals
  • Not the Strongest Build (Prone to Damage From Aspiring Ronaldo’s)
