ABSTRACT:
A soccer goal assembly and apparatus includes a goal frame (20), a pivotable net frame (28), a pair of support bars (31), and a net (50). The goal frame (20) is located at the front of the goal and includes a pair of vertical posts (22) and a horizontal cross bar (23) connecting the upper ends of the vertical posts (22). A ground-level housing (26) is connected rearwardly and orthogonally to the lower ends of the vertical posts (22). The housing (26) includes a lockable compartment for storing the net (50). The net (50) is attached to the housing (26) and net frame (28). The support bars (31) are attached to the housing (26) and goal frame (20) in a manner to support the net (50) while in use during game play. When the net frame (28) pivots from a horizontal position to a vertical position abutting the goal frame (20), it pulls the net (50) over the support bars (31) to form a soccer goal enclosure. The arms (76) of the net frame are extensible to allow for the difference in the height and depth of the goal. The soccer goal assembly can be adapted to retrofit onto existing goal frames. This allows a user to save the cost of replacing an already emplaced goal frame.
