Why PEVO

Although most soccer goals are manufactured from the same material, not all soccer goals are engineered the same. At PEVO Sports we take pride in engineering a soccer goal like no other with precision welds and innovative designs.

 What size soccer goal do I need? 

Picking the right size soccer goal is important for many reasons. First, per league and age requirements, certain sized soccer goals must be used depending on the age or match type. See table below for the soccer goal size you will need depending on age per US Soccer.

 Age Group

U6-U8 (4v4)
U9-U10 (7v7)
U11-U12 (9v9)
U13+ (11v11)

Dissecting a soccer goal

Let's get down and nerdy. A soccer goal is made up of a few components and when all assembled they all play their part in forming this beautiful masterpiece better known as a soccer goal. Whether you are getting a 4x6 soccer goal up to 8x24 or even a futsal, the components mostly remain the same.


The crossbar is used to connect each side of the soccer goal together. This piece can be in many lengths as well as made of different sized material i.e. 3" round aluminum or a thicker 4" round aluminum. 


The ground bar on the other hand is used to not only connect each side of the soccer goal at the bottom, but more importantly be used as a mandatory counterweight to provide safety (ALWAYS ANCHOR YOUR SOCCER GOAL DOWN). The length like the crossbar depends on the size of your soccer goal and can be 2" round galvanized steel, 3" round aluminum, or the thicker 4" round aluminum.


The upright or more commonly know as the post, is another component that completes the frame of the soccer goal. The material for this go can be a 3" round aluminum or 4" round aluminum. The upright connects to the base at the bottom, as well as the crossbar and backstay at the top.


The base of the soccer goal is the component that connects to the upright as well as the ground bar and backstay in the rear of the soccer goal. This material comes in all aluminum and depending on model comes in a 2" round, 3" round, or 4" round.


Last but not least we have our backstay. While the backstay may be the "main star" it certainly plays a key role in the stability of the soccer goal. The backstay on a PEVO soccer goal connect the top corner to the bottom rear corner of the goal. This gives extra protection to the uprights to ensure they are firm when being handled.


We do sell replacement pieces of each component so should you ever need any please reach out to info@pevosports.com and let us know what you need!

What material is a PEVO soccer goal made from?

While the term soccer goal may be a relatively broad search, the material used is relatively the same (depending on the model). On all PEVO soccer goals, the crossbar, uprights, bases and backstays are all manufactured with high quality, lightweight aluminum. Regarding the ground bar (depending on the model which we will touch on later) the material is either aluminum or galvanized steel. 

What soccer goal is right for me?.

We will provide everything needed to unbox, assemble, and score.

How is my soccer goal shipped?

At PEVO we strive to not only manufacture a well engineered soccer goal, but also have quick lead times to ensure you are ready for gameday. Shipping options vary depending on size of the order as well as part of the country it is going to. Orders may be sent either by a LTL carrier or direct truck right to your door. In both cases the driver will call to set an appointment with you. Please note it is crucial to inspect the packages prior to delivery in the rare case there is damage. 

What about assembling my soccer goal?

Let's face it, no one likes assembling a product with a bunch of loose bolts and screws, and a soccer goal shouldn't be any different. At PEVO we keep it simple for you. You will notice upon delivery for most goals, that the sides will already be assembled for you. All you will have to do is unbox, attach the sides to the crossbar/ground bar, put on the net, inspect for safety and score. Check out how simple assembly is in our video below!
