gas and water lines before digging holes for footings. Also, check for overhead utilities. See Detail “C”.
3. Raise the assembled soccer goal into position, with the bottom end of the posts suspended in the holes for the
footings. Support the goal assembly at the proper location and height, with 2x4’s, etc. The bottom of the crossbar
must be located at the exact dimension above the playing surface, with the face of the goal even with the outer edge
of the court line. See Details “B” and "C".
4. After double-checking the position of the soccer goal, pour the concrete footings.
5. Allow the concrete footings to cure for a minimum of
three days before assembling soccer net to goal
with net hooks. Net hooks are installed into the
continuous slot on the backside of the soccer goal
by inserting and turning clockwise. See Detail “G”.
