We Found the Best Portable Soccer Goals That Actually Stay in Place

Best Portable Soccer Goal Overall

Bownet Portable Soccer

ConsExpensive if not being used frequently

Those looking for larger goals need to check out Bownet. Its 12 by 6 foot goal is similar in price to the Kwik Goal we rank below, but the biggest difference between the two is Bownet is more flexible and easier to put together. While your Kwik Goal is going to be more rigid and resemble a traditional soccer goal, this one from Bownet has much more slack so the the goal avoids tipping over when a ball line drives into the net. Bownet is the smartest choice when buying a portable soccer goal, just be ready for the investment.

Best Mini Portable Soccer Goal

Forza Aluminum Pod Soccer Goal

ConsExpensive, especially considering the size

Forza goals cost a pretty penny, but their lightweight aluminum construction, smart fold-up design, and super durable mesh netting makes them well worth the purchase for serious players. The company is so good on quality, that pro clubs like Manchester United use Forza goals at its training facilities for practice. You can buy this specific Pod goal in a few different sizes, but the 6 by 4 foot version is great for drilling and for casual pick-up. Did we mention you can choose your Pod goal in a ton of different colors?

Best Classic Design Portable Soccer Goal

Kwik Goal Flex

Those looking for a traditional, full-sized soccer goal, look to this one from Kwik. This puppy folds out to a regulation 6 foot by 12 foot size and has a thick rope netting for stopping the ball. Assembling the goal with its fiberglass and steel pieces is similar to putting together a camping tent. If you want extra security for the goal to stay in place, we recommend adding some anchors to the back corners (either sandbags or 10-20 pounds of weight on each corner). The downsides to buying this goal is it’s heavier than most of the goals we reviewed, plus it takes longer to assemble than most. But that should be expected for a regulation size goal you can count to stand firm, right? If you are a serious player and want a full-size net, then you can’t go wrong with this choice.

Best Portable Soccer Goal for Kids

Amazon Basics Pop-Up Soccer Goal Net Set

ConsNot ideal for adults

If you’re a parent looking for another way to keep the kids busy, this pop-up net is the perfect portable solution for them to take shots on goal all day long. For starters, you get two goals in this purchase, so you can create a full-on mini field for play. Each goal folds down flat to fit in its accompanying carrying bag, and to secure the goals into the ground all you need to do is drive the attached stakes into the dirt. Keep in mind this goal is barely 3 feet tall, so adults will have a hard time playing on it. For kids and teens though, this will do just fine for casual play.

Best Mid-Tier Portable Soccer Goal

Sklz Quickster Soccer Goal

If you want a full sized goal similar to the Bownet’s design, but don’t want to pay the full Bownet price, then you should turn to the Quickster. It has a lightweight build, simple assembly process, and a flexible build to help absorb hard shots on the net. The drawback? You have to secure the goal down with metal stakes. There’s also some questions about durability compared to the Bownet, as the Bownet feels like it would last much longer than the Quickster. Remember though, the Quickster is about half as much as the Bownet in price. If you are looking for a middle to high-tier goal (but not quite premium) then you should most definitely consider the Quickster.

Best Portable Soccer Goal Deal

Franklin Sports Blackhawk Backyard Soccer Goal

If you’re looking for portable soccer goal with excellent value, then the Franklin Blackhawk needs your attention. It’s available in a wide variety of dimensions, ranging from 4 by 3 feet to 12 by 6 feet. It’s worth making note this goal requires stakes to be driven into the ground to get it to hold firm. The goal is lightweight and easy to assemble, so there’s no trouble there. However, the goal might be a little too lightweight, especially when it comes to containing hard shots. You might find yourself having to adjust the stakes after a few hard goals due to shifting and moving, which makes the Blackhawk not the most ideal for heavy practicing but rather for casual pick-up games. Nevertheless, this goal performs well above its price point in all sizes. Just don’t expect a top-of-the-line experience like you would with goals from Bownet, Forza, and Kwik.
