ABSTRACT:
The invention provides mobile game play goals in form of tether balls with various types of tether anchors, depending on types of playing surface and game field pattern. The mobile goals are employed in various field patterns for novel football (soccer) play whereby competing teams try to kick a free football (soccer ball) against their mobile goal for a score. The invention describes four different field patterns for mobile goals and associated game play. Tether ropes can range from 1 to 5 yds (mts) in length. Tether anchors can be in form of stake or inverted "U" pin for soft playing surface, and in form of a weighted disc for impenetrable playing surface such as concrete, asphalt, or wood. An optional form of mobile goals uses two tether balls connected by a tether from 2 to 10 yds (mts) in length, thus providing a free-to-move (non-anchored) pair of goals which can be used in novel game play. Subject goals are portable, economical, vandal-proof, versatile in set-up on various playing surfaces, suitable for small playing areas, require no field markings, and provide ideal means for football (soccer) competition or practice.
