Open Goaaal Soccer Goal, Rebounder and Backstop Net

Two months in my kids absolutely love it. It’s holding up fantastic. It was a little tricky to put together. I kind of had to use some zip ties at spots to tighten it up, but overall it’s amazing and does all the things you wanted to do.

This soccer rebounder has been one of the best backyard purchases we’ve made for our kids. The 3-in-1 design is awesome—it works as a goal, a rebounder for passing, and a training tool for volleys, so it keeps things interesting and actually helps build skills instead of just kicking the ball around. The rebound feature is the standout. The ball comes back with great speed and consistency, which makes it perfect for solo practice. My kids have been using it nonstop to work on first touches, passing accuracy, and reaction time—and it’s made a noticeable difference. Setup was pretty straightforward, and once it’s in place, it feels sturdy and holds up well even with frequent use. It’s also nice not having to constantly chase balls all over the yard anymore. Overall, this is a great investment if you have kids who love soccer or want to improve their skills at home. It’s fun, functional, and keeps them active outside—definitely worth it!

Attention Yard Owners and Rainy Area Residents: A Must-Read! Discover a potentially brilliant concept that may have started as a backyard idea and turned into a business. However, before considering a purchase, it is important to note that this product is lacking some essential upgrades to make it truly functional in the real world. Let's delve into the drawbacks. Firstly, the clips, even if they were rust-resistant, need improvement. When removing them for regular mowing, the elastic tends to get cut, causing damage to the cords. In parts of the United States like mine, where it rains frequently, mowing is needed at least 1.5 times a week in spring and early summer, and once or less a week throughout the rest of the year. This means that you have to unclip and re-clip the six connections multiple times, leading to further wear and tear on the cords. Furthermore, the cheap stakes that come with the product tend to get pressed into the ground by your ride-on or walk-behind mower. Consequently, they become a hassle to dig out and remove, often requiring a hammer. I recommend using an anchor that easily retracts (please refer to the shopping list for details). Trust me, you'll be thrilled with the results that should of been included with the original design. By using proper clips and the suggested anchor(s), you can effortlessly roll up the net and mow underneath it each time. This simple shift in method will save you from the frustration of spending 10 minutes tearing the setup down, followed by another 10 minutes setting it up again. Now, let's discuss a few suggestions for the designer of the product's next iteration. Moving the main tension on the primary poles up 6-8 inches higher is crucial. This adjustment will prevent weed-eaters from cutting through the line. Additionally, finding a durable anchor that can withstand damp ground and not pull out is imperative (please refer to the provided image after a storm or running sprinkler for a visual). The anchor should also be positioned at a height that allows for edging against metal or wrapped in a protective casing, as the cordage tends to become brittle. If you still plan on purchasing this product after considering the mentioned drawbacks, please take a look at my included wish list below. These are the minimum required upgrades that I believe would greatly enhance the functionality and value of the product. https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/34Q7LXESW8NGL?ref_=wl_share I am open to discussing these concerns further with the company. Considering the relatively high price of this product, the lack of these important features is disappointing. I feel obligated to warn others, as a neighbor of mine purchased one without consulting with me, only to realize that it is close to being considered junk in its current state. However, I truly believe that with the necessary improvements, this product has the potential to be something great!

Great quality and very sturdy with easy to follow directions for assembly. Definitely need more than one set of hands to put together though. Has been great for the kids to practice whenever they want at home, even by themselves due to the built in rebounder.

I bought the large for my '09 daughter who plays club soccer. Setup. The instructions are all right but needs a re-write. They should make the manual specific to each size that they sell to save some confusion. The net itself had a few flaws that could, in time, become an issue, and I will be writing to the company to detail with pictures of my problems. The poles themselves were ok. There were some paint flaws, some flat spots and a little loose fitting on both of the top posts. For the price, I would have liked to have had metal or aluminum stakes for the goal net itself instead of the plastic ones, which I believe in time will just crack. I had no issues with the 6 pole stakes and thought they were nice and easy to get into the ground. I used the 3',4',5' method to get the initial outline squared up and some gutter nails and marking string to get everything straight. In total, it took a couple of hours with some much-needed water breaks. In Use, this works as advertised and saves a lot of running behind the net for missed shots on goal. I do not see this being that easy to move to one side, so I will make due when cutting the grass around it. Overall I would recommend this to anyone that needs a good backstop and a decent size goal. It has taken a lot of powerful shots, and after 3 solid hours of use does not show any signs of fatigue or weaknesses.

My son absolutely loves this net and so do I! Plus my neighbors could not be more happy from the soccer balls no longer launching into their back yard! The net is a challenge to set up if you are doing it alone. I had my son help a little but he is only 11 so his help was limited. Once it’s set up it works fantastic. We had multiple balls being shot at it and for the summer it held up wonderfully! There was 1 problem. Our net caught an owl. A massive 3 ft tall owl. I attuned to take the net down and cut the owl out and unfortunately destroyed the net. My son is super disappointed and the net can’t be fixed. Replacing this at over $300 is highly unlikely. So watch for owls!

We bought this for Christmas. We got the biggest one. My wife and I were able to set it up outside… the instructions were a little confusing based on the dimensions but we figured it out. We live out in the country so was worried a deer or something would run in to it. But nothing 4 months in. The kids play on it all the time and we even have the neighborhood kids stopping by to use it. Many impromptu games have happened… if the goal is to get the kids outside and using it, this is perfect. I also like it doesn’t block our view.

UPDATE: I was able to connect with a rep from Open Goaaal. I submitted a request to the company directly and they got back to me within 2-3 hours. I explained the frustration and issue with the net quality. All they needed was proof of purchase and a few pics of the net issue and they were very helpful in providing a solution. They offered to send a new net at no cost which works for me. Very happy overall with their support and ability to do what they could to help the situation. First the good. Once its up, the pegs holding it down as well as multiple ropes/bungees are solid and work well to prevent this net from dislodging. Feels like its in place and not coming out anytime soon. Now the frustration. I would expect better quality construction and instructions for the price paid. 1. Instructions make no sense halfway through the build. Once you get the green poles up, the rest is chaos. One bungee to hold up the net for the left side, but a "rope" to hold the net for the right. Not to mention the instructions tell you to use both on the left, then replicate for the right. And the bungees connected to the bottom front of the white part of the net don't even have hooks on them. No mention of this in the instructions, forcing you to manually tie a bungee chord? Also noting that the PDF instructions on the Open Goaaal website are also different and incorrect. 2. Net durability is horrible. By the 2nd day we got this up, holes started appearing in the back of the net as my kids kicked the ball into the white net (not yet teenagers). After inspection it looks like pieces of the net are cheaply tied or glued together. Very disappointed in the overall quality. It took hours to get this thing up.

Fantastic for football training. Is saving the ball going over our wall a lot🙏🏻

Great! Although my son still seems to manage to ping it over

I love it it’s so fun to shoot on

Real good goal!

Mega Netz, gute Qualität. Kann an die Breite gut angepasst werden
