Samba8 x 6ft Fun Goal - Portable Garden Football Goal Post

We bought the 8ft by 6ft version which is perfect size for my 11 year old son and our garden. He had a smaller 6ftx4ft from a different company which had become too small and had started to fall to pieces. At the time I thought that was OK but the SAMBA is far better, with thicker posts, good interlocking at the joints and a strong net. I cannot see this goal breaking and it has already had lots of hard shots whacked against the posts and cross bar. It was really easy to assemble, instructions were provided but we didn't need them as it was so straight forward. The only slightly tricky/fiddly bit was putting the clips on the net but once you get the hang of it they are also easy. The goal arrived ahead of time and was well packaged. I would definitely recommend and for the price I cannot see how you could get better.

Having accepted the slow demise of our lawn into a mudpit, we decided to invest in a proper goal to at least explain it's sorry state and make things look official.The goal arrived quickly and was super easy to assemble single handedly (the trickiest part was the netting). So far it has been pretty sturdy, taking a battering from small boys and a grown man. Would recommend.

Son is very happy with his goals. The tubes are wider than many others which means that they are sturdy and are still holding their shape really well. They are still quite light which means that although they’re portable they do move about a bit when a ball hits them. They come with metal retaining spikes that can keep them fixed but we have fake turf in the back garden to that option doesn’t work for us specifically and so they need to be weighed down with a sand bag. The new design of retaining clip for the nets mean they are much easier to put on than others we have tried over the years. We would definitely recommend these goals.

We bought the 8x6 goal for garden use based on the fact that this is the brand that our local youth football club uses and so made the assumption that they must be able to stand up to a fair bit of use.It turned out to be very easy to assemble and stable enough to move around for mowing the grass etc.The only drawback, and hence 4 stars not five, is that one of the net strings has snapped after only a couple of months use. This was easily repaired but it did surprise me that this happened so soon.All in all, a nice goal though.Edit: Another month gone by and now the number of net strings broken is up to 5. I'm beginning to think that the net material isn't up to the job. This is happening during the summer months and I'm wondering whether the net will last through the winter in one piece...football is a winter sport so the net really should be able to stand up to weather and having a ball kicked against it. That is, after all, the purpose of the net.The goal frame itself is fine but it tends to become a little annoying when you have to keep repairing something only bought a few months ago.

Excellent fast service especially for the time of year, my son was delighted on Christmas morning and the goals now fit comfortably in our garden. We have quite a big garden by todays standards and these goals are just right. Also my 9 year old son can stand up in them and that is what he asked for as the previous goals we had were too small. They were fairly easy to put together and at the moment seem sturdy enough, we are impressed. Only time will tell how long they last but at the moment I would recommend them, the price seemed right and the service was excellent.

Easy to put together and sturdy when made

We bought this goal as Samba is advertised as an all weather goal and used by schools/colleges (All previous goals we purchased have either gone rusty or the net has fallen apart). It was easily assembled and the net has numerous clips to help secure it around the large sturdy poles which is an added bonus straight away. It has only been used since yesterday but having 4 big teenagers kicking a ball at it, it doesn't seem to have bothered it at all. One big bonus....no metal to go rusty - just big plastic posts to deal with all weather. I'm hoping it will outlive all previous goals by a very long way - definitely worth paying that bit more if it does so.

I recently ordered the Samba 8ft x 6ft goal. It was delivered on the day I was informed it would be & within the timeframe I was given. The goal is excellent quality & only took me about 15-20 minutes to put it up by myself (there are plenty of helpful videos on YouTube that show you how to put the goal up & I would recommend watching one of them before you start). The size is perfect, not too big or too small & my children love it. If you are looking at buying a goal or goals, I would strongly recommend this product. Might be a little more expensive than others but the quality is definitely worth the extra money.
