Goal nets

In our assortment, you will find goal nets in sizes 3 x 2, 5 x 2m, and 7.32 x 2.44m. All these sizes correspond to the dimensions of goals on soccer fields. Upon special request, we can prepare a custom-sized net for you.

At the Starto store, you will find nets made of polyethylene and polypropylene. These two materials differ from each other.

An Essential Element of the Field

The goal net is a crucial element of equipment for any soccer field. Its main task is to catch balls entering the goal, enabling smooth gameplay.

The net also protects people and objects behind the goal from accidental ball strikes. It is an essential piece of equipment for both matches and training sessions.

Durability Against Impacts

Goal nets must be durable as they are exposed to tremendous forces during ball impacts, with speeds reaching up to 100 km/h. Previously, they were woven from natural ropes, which led to frequent mechanical damage and a lack of resistance to weather conditions.

Polypropylene Nets

Nets made of polypropylene are highly durable and lightweight. Polypropylene fibers can be woven into ropes, which are then used to produce nets for sports or industrial applications. Elastic polypropylene nets provide excellent shock absorption, are inexpensive, and aesthetically pleasing.

Advantages of Polypropylene Nets

Polypropylene goal nets are chosen for professional stadiums, training fields, and school pitches. They are highly resistant to mechanical stress, withstanding attempts to tear, pull, or prolonged loads and strong ball impacts.

They do not lose their properties even after long exposure to UV radiation, moisture, or water. Thanks to these features, polypropylene nets are an excellent choice for any soccer field.

Choosing the Right Soccer Goal Net

Apart from durability and elasticity, there are other factors to consider when choosing a soccer goal net.

Mesh Size

The mesh size of the net affects its stiffness. A denser weave results in a slightly stiffer material. The mesh is most commonly shaped as squares, rhombuses, or hexagons (honeycomb structure), which influences the net's appearance and shock-absorbing properties.

Dimensions

Proper sizing of the net is crucial for it to fit the specific goal. Standard sizes are 3x2 m, 5x2 m, and 7.32x2.44 m.

Color

The color of the net can affect its visibility for both players and spectators. Goal nets are most commonly available in white, green, black, or other colors. An interesting solution is a net that is white on the inside and black on the outside, providing optimal visibility for players and viewers.

Weaving Structure

The way the net is woven, e.g., into a honeycomb structure, can affect its appearance and shock-absorbing properties. When choosing a soccer goal net, it is worth considering all these factors to ensure a product tailored to individual needs and preference.
