About this book
From a loose net that lets in a soft goal to an unanchored goal that topples in a gust of wind, the small details of goal accessories have outsized consequences. The Complete Handbook of Soccer Goal Accessories is the first reference to treat this category with the seriousness it demands. It covers the full spectrum of products—from nets and anchor kits to padding and replacement parts—with clear specification breakdowns, selection criteria for different levels and budgets, and step-by-step installation and maintenance procedures. Written for professionals and serious enthusiasts, it focuses on practical knowledge you can apply immediately, not salesmanship.
Reader Reviews
Jonathan Jackson
★★★★★I was hoping for more of a focus on the actual fitting process for older goal frames. The book mentions how nets attach, but it could have used a few more diagrams or photos, especially for retrofit situations. The chapter on winterizing and maintenance is really good, so I got some value there. Not bad, just not as visual as I'd like.
Jason Brown
★★★★★Good, solid reference. I run a small rental business and the chapter on business opportunities was directly relevant. I liked that it didn't waste time with fluff and just gave you the information. The only gripe I have is that the reviews or mentions of specific brands are generic, but I understand that keeps it evergreen. The glossary is a nice touch for my new staff members.

★★★★★This is the book I wish I'd had when I started managing our club's facilities. The chapter on anchors alone is worth the price. It explained the different types, how they load, and what to look for in our soil conditions. I have already used the maintenance schedules from Chapter 5 to extend the life of our nets. It's dense, practical, and completely free of the usual marketing nonsense. Excellent work.

★★★★★It's a detailed book, definitely comprehensive, but I felt it was a bit heavy on the technical specs. I'm not an engineer, I just coach a youth team. I skimmed through some of the more detailed installation parts. The FAQ section at the end was actually the most helpful part for me because it answered questions I hadn't even thought of yet, like how to handle specific net repairs.

★★★★★Worth picking up if you're starting from zero, but I didn't feel like it had a lot of new information beyond what I've learned from years on internet forums. The first chapter about why these things matter had a lot of good info, and it's well organized. It's a good manual to keep on the shelf for reference, but I wasn't blown away by the depth on any single topic.
Kenneth Rodriguez
★★★★★Finally, a book that treats goal maintenance as a real profession. The chapters on installation and troubleshooting saved me a full weekend of guesswork when putting in new anchor systems. I've already recommended it to the other facility directors in my district. The differentiator is how well it explains the 'why' behind every recommendation, which helps you think on your feet. Essential reading for anyone in charge of a pitch.
