Portable Goals

Managers and coaches please check these goals are securely fastened before you let the children anywhere near them.

Please ensure that home goals are securely tied down. When playing away please also check how secure the hosts goals are. If in doubt or you are not satisfied please notify the referee and do not proceed with the game unless you are satisfied. Please also do not allow the school boys/girls near any portable goals in the All Weather unless the goals are secured. This applies in particular to the first official that opens the all weather for training.
