Abstract: A sports goal target uses a visual barrier to train and develop a psychological mind set to improve shooting accuracy during practice and subsequent games. The barrier has an upper edge corresponding to the length of the upper member of the goal and two side edges having a length corresponding to the length of the side members of the goal. The inner edge is spaced apart from the outer edge to define a width, and a plurality of fasteners for attaching the barrier just inside the goal. The barrier may be composed of a flexible material or rigid or semi-rigid panels. The barrier is colored with a bright or fluorescent color intended for players to remember after the barrier is removed for practice without the barrier or a real game. The barrier may be sized for various games, with the dimensions being varied to suit the particular sport.
