  • Publication number: 20140026497
    Abstract: A selectively releasable ground securing device that includes a ground member, a clamp body, and a lock assembly that selectively cooperates with the ground member to secure the clamp body relative thereto. The ground member includes a drivable body that is constructed to be driven into a ground surface such that the ground member is generally flush with the upper layer of the ground surface. The lock assembly selectively cooperates with the ground member to secure the clamp body and structure engaged therewith relative to the ground member. In a preferred embodiment, the clamp body cooperates with a rail of a goal assembly to prevent tipping or movement of the goal assembly when the lock assembly is engaged with the ground member.

  • Publication number: 20100147207
    Abstract: A goal to ground indicator device indicates a ready and/or upset condition of a ground supported goal such as a soccer goal that has at least one bar that lies in contact with the ground. The indicator device includes a base plate, a contact arm mounted to the base plate and movable relative to the base plate and an indicator arm mounted to the base plate for cooperation with the contact arm. The contact arm and a portion of the base plate are configured for contact with the bar. The indicator arm is movable relative to the contact arm between a ready position and an upset position. The indicator arm is positioned such that a portion of the contact arm cooperates with a portion of the indicator arm to temporarily maintain the indicator arm in the ready position. A biasing element biases the indicator arm to the upset position.
