Abstract: A net shield apparatus for preventing contact and entanglement between the net of a sports goal and a roller component of a rolling ballast system mounted on the rear of the goal in the form of a cover which overlaps the roller and includes an arrangement to secure the net on the outer surface of the shield.

Abstract: An improved auxiliary weighted roller assembly attachable to a sports goal ground crossbar to stabilize the goal and to facilitate temporary or long term relocation for field maintenance, alternative field use, or storage consisting of a framework attachable to the crossbar and a pair of weighted rollers attached to the framework one each disposed on the front and rear of the crossbar of sufficient diameter to raise the crossbar above the ground, the improvement comprising devices to increase the strength of the clamping mechanism employed to attach the roller assembly and the goal ground crossbar.

Abstract: In a soccer goal consisting of a framework supporting a net arranged to trap a soccer ball passing through the mouth of the frame upon scoring a goal, a safety device for preventing the shifting of the framework from a playing field position or from tipping over from misuse or player impact consisting of a weighted roller attachable or attached to the rear of the framework and resting on the playing field opposite the mouth which roller is either permanently weighted by construction of a heavy material or is constructed of a sealed shell fillable with a liquid such as water or a flowable particulate substance such as sand. In addition to providing the necessary weight to stabilize the goal, the rollers facilitate the repositioning of the goal for storage or to clear a playing field for other purposes.

Abstract: A portable soccer goal assembly is described, which is readily erected and taken down. The goal assembly is stable against tipping or buckling even when several individuals climb upon the vertical supports and cross-bar, as occurs frequently when the goal assembly is accessible at opportune moments.
