Thoughs on comparison of 6ft Champro or the 6ft Golme goals. Circular vs. rectangle? U5 now but want them to last. Looking for any feedback?

These Golme goals are not six feet. They are the smaller pop up type of goals. Doubt you'd want to be carting around 6 ft goals in your car. These have held up well for my u10 team.

I have the 4 ft Golme goals and I love them! I coach a U6 team and use them in my backyard often. The kids hang on them and they are holding up very well! They are rounded which is less goal area but they pretty much dribble the ball into goal or "pass" it in so the top corners aren't necessary. Good luck!

It depends on your skill level. I have a few different sizes and like utilizing different sizes for different techniques or various drills to develope different attributes. Bigger bags are slower and are better for burning out the shoulders. Smaller bags require more finesse and more speed, but might not give you the same type of workout. I like to start small and as I start to fatigue I switch to a larger bag to finish out my shoulders. I also prefer rubber bladders over vinyl. They're more durable and retain air pressure better in the cold. Less refilling them, but they're heavier. Which you don't want in your faster bags. Just my thoughts on it. My absolute favorites are the title bags, the red classic and the yellow. I have a couple everlasts and they're good but I love the red classic, I think I went with the five, but I'll spend 7 hours or so out in the garage hitting on a good night. Anyway I hope this helps.

Hi, The net would work well because of the adjustable bungee. There will be plenty of room at the bottom so you will have a shoot where the balls will gather (like a real soccer goal). Mine is eight wide, four high, four deep, and it fits well.

I have to agree with the other response. I originally bought a 9x12 but it was a monster. Gave it to my dad, bought the 6x8, never looked back.

For teams we always recommend training with the same size goal you play with during matches. It will increase both situational awareness and player confidence which results in better finishing skills (more goals). If a team is on the cusp between two sizes we agree with the answers here; choose the larger size.

I purchased a smaller youth sized basketball to help my grandson become more proficient at dribbling and shooting the ball. The goal will accommodate both sizes, so I will transition him into the regular size ball as he gets older.

I am unsure but I would assume the foal is a good deal smaller. An 18 inch doll can actually ride this one, I doubt it would fit on the goal. :)

By US Youth Soccer standards 6'x18' is recommended up to U12 soccer players. 8'x24' is recommended up to U19 soccer play.With limited funds, I would buy the bigger goal. Refer to the following website for US Youth Soccer recommendations.http://www.usyouthsoccer.org/coaches/goalsizes/Hope this helps.

Daniel, these goals are located at our camp and I am not there at present so I can't give you a height. They are fairly portable...very heavy especially on any incline (we use them on a flat outdoor pavilion) and not the best turning radius. Fantastic goals!

It is made for a square pole and my guess is your portable goal has a round pole. Further, it would make your goal very top heavy especially in the wind so I would not recommend it due to it being unsafe.

Get the xt10, it's a big light gathering bucket, a bit heavy and all manual operation but you'll see more and learn more about where things are in the sky, the cons of the go to 6E seem to much trouble to get to first base viewing. This thing is just aim a view!

I have the karbonz fixed and find the chiagoos to be as light weight, maybe a very slight difference. Definitely a different feel though. I love my chiagoos and use them most of the time. They are quite slippy though with finer weight yarn.

I would go with the Expression so you're not as limited with sizes. With the smaller one you can only cut up to 5". I have had mine for about 4 months (I've never had one before this) and it is awesome! If you do as much paper crafting as you say, you'll be much happier with the larger one. Yes, it is bigger, but I think it's worth the extra space. Also there isn't a huge price difference between the two. (Do NOT buy one at your local craft store, go online!ohmycrafts.com, customcrops.com or ebay) You will find with the expression there are a lot of other things to do with it besides paper crafting, such as home decorating with the vinyl. You can also do mix 'n match, flip and center point which allows you to center an image and cut a shape around it. When I was looking to purchase one I had the same question you have, and I'm glad I went with the expression because I couldn't imagine being limited by the smaller one. Keep in mind if you do want the smaller one there are two versions: the personal and the create. The personal is the older model with less features, the create has the same features as the expression but the smaller size. But once again, I see no point in getting that one unless you are truly limited on space. The expression is not that heavy so if you had to move it it wouldn't be that big of a deal. Hope this helps!

I am the equipment manager for our soccer association, so I did not use them personally. They are small...used for u10 and under. They were not large enough for our Senior teams or even u13 for that matter. They seemed to hold up pretty well though.

David, Thank you for your interest in the Goalrilla Hoop Light! Unfortunately, with the included brackets, this light only fits Goalrilla units and other permanent goals with 5"x5" to 6"x8" poles. Thanks for your question! Goalrilla

Hi, I used the Champion pitch-back a few times in the park to practice my throws. It is a sturdy structure and the netting is tough. If you can throw accurately this pitch-back is pretty good and it does have a wide target. I have a wild arm so I did a lot of chasing after balls. When I did hit the target, the rebound was good. If you buy this, the main thing I recommend is to use good sized tent stakes to anchor it down. The stakes it comes with don't work that well.
