Buying goal posts

Buying goal posts for Prestwood Colts F.C.

When recently buying goal posts one of the oldest football clubs in Bucks chose ITSA folding goal posts. On a very cold snowy blustery day the new football goal posts from ITSA GOAL arrived in spite of the bad weather conditions. The pictures below show the Prestwood Colts  Chairman  Mike Fulham taking delivery of new 9v9 and mini soccer lightweight folding goal posts. Club committee member Mike Kitching was responsible for sourcing and buying goal posts for the club and after lots of research looking into every type of freestanding goal post he decided the best and most suitable football goals were ITSA folding goals.  “Buying goal posts could not have been easier”  said Mike and now both their Mini Soccer and 9v9 youth teams will be playing in brand new goals from next week. The picture shows John Wilson from ITSA GOAL with Mike Kitching and two of the new goal post sponsors Steve Humphreys and Jo Gillet at the Prestwood ground.

Mike talked to numerous clubs that use our folding goals before deciding and put safety and ease of use above everything including price. The ITSA GOAL lightweight lockable folding goal posts were chosen as they offered additional safety above other types of heavier products. the lighter weight makes them not only safer but easier to move and store. The additional goal post wheel attachments they have also  purchased  when buying the goal posts allows them easier movement of the football goals around the large multi football pitch site. When buying goal posts the first consideration should be safety and the range of seventy millimetre diameter lightweight aluminium goals have a mass lower than 45 kilos which has been shown not to injure children if they topple onto them.
