5-a-Side Academy Aluminium Self-Weighted Portable Goal – 12ft x 4ft

The 5-A-Side Academy Self-Weighted Portable Goal (12ft x 4ft) – Pair combines professional design, portability, and safety in one comprehensive package. This excellent value deal provides everything required for training sessions and small-sided matches, making it a popular choice for clubs, academies, and sports facilities.

A key feature of the Academy design is its integrated self-weighted back bar, which removes the need for additional anchors or external counterweights. Internal weight blocks sit neatly within the frame to provide the stability required to meet British Safety Standards. These weights arrive in manageable sections, making handling and installation far easier for grounds staff and coaches.

The Academy aluminium goal range was created to give grassroots football organisations access to professional-quality aluminium goals at a more accessible price point. As a result, many clubs and training centres across the UK now rely on these goals for dependable performance and excellent long-term value.

Durable Aluminium Construction

Engineers build the goal frame from high-quality aluminium, offering an ideal balance of strength and low maintenance. Aluminium will not rust, allowing the goal to remain in excellent condition even when used outdoors throughout the year.

Precision-cut frame sections connect through reinforced steel elbow corner joints, which strengthen the goal and ensure a rigid structure once assembled. The crossbars and uprights feature a reinforced 80mm diameter profile with a 3mm wall thickness, providing the strength needed to handle powerful shots during training and matches.

All fixings receive protective treatments to resist corrosion, while the steel net supports and braces undergo hot-dip galvanising followed by polyester powder coating. This layered protection ensures reliable durability and weather resistance in demanding playing environments.

Easy Movement with Lever Wheel System

Despite its strong frame and built-in stability, the Academy goal remains easy to reposition when needed. When fitted with EasyLever transport wheels, the goal can be lifted slightly using a simple lever action that provides enough ground clearance to move the frame safely.

The wheels feature puncture-proof tyres, ensuring reliable performance across training grounds and pitches. Once the goal reaches its position, the wheels lower and the frame rests securely on the ground ready for play.

This package also includes a 4mm white “Shape to Fit” goal net, designed specifically for the Academy frame. The durable netting offers excellent weather resistance while giving the goal a clean, professional appearance match after match.

British Engineering and Proven Safety Standards

Skilled engineers manufacture every Academy goal in Great Britain, maintaining strict quality standards throughout the production process. The design focuses on reliability, durability, and long-term performance for football environments that demand dependable equipment.

Independent testing confirms that the goal meets British Safety Standards when assembled correctly. The integrated weighting system helps ensure compliance without the need for additional ground anchors.

This allows us to deliver a prompt and efficient service to you, our customer.  Please note that we do not hold stock of branded teamwear products including Errea and Stanno football kits. It is common practise within this industry to ship football teamwear products from the manufacturer once we receive your order.

You are always welcome to contact us if you have a query regarding lead times. We do understand the importance of meeting delivery expectations.
