Our Top Tips for Goal Maintenance
Here are some of Mark Harrod Ltds top tips on goal maintenance, essential in off-seasons and when preparing for a new season:
- Check for damage to the goal frame, any joints that may have opened up, or cracks in the structure
- Ensure all fixings are present, are not damaged and are tightened up
- Ensure your goal has sufficient anchorage, whether it is pegs, sandbags or counter-weights
- Make sure your nets are complete, and there are no breaks or holes where there shouldn’t be
- Pack your net neatly into a net bag for storage when not in use – it’s been known for nets to be nibbled in storage!
- Ensure folding mechanisms and fence-fixed systems are in full working order and are not loose
- Store your goals securely when not in use to protect them from the weather.
- Ensure that all moving parts, such as nets and hinges, are checked regularly for any signs of wear and tear.
- Grease and oil all of your moving parts: wheels and lift mechanism, fence fixed hinges for example. We recommend using silicon grease.
- Give your goal posts a thorough clean to get rid of mud and dirt and reduce the risk of rust
