ABSTRACT:
A soccer court comprises a rectangular playing area approximately the size of a tennis court and preferably covered with artificial turf, an enclosing wall with goal openings in the end walls and goal nets disposed outside of the playing area. The enclosing wall is constructed of a plurality of rigid transparent panels held in place by horizontal and vertical supports. Player entry doors are provided in the enclosing wall. The goal may optionally be configured as an inverted U and/or provided with doors to fully or partially close the goal opening. A backstop net is provided above each end wall to block errant shots on the goals, and the playing area may be bisected to create two substantially square training areas.
