Why Mark Harrod Ltd Football Goals Meet the Highest Specification and Safety Standards
When picking football goals for your garden, training pitch or local club, quality and safety top the list. At Mark Harrod Ltd, we craft goals that boost your game while sticking to the toughest standards set by BS EN and IFAB. Whether you’re after children’s football goals, portable football goals or full-size setups, here’s why our products lead the pack in safety and reliability.
Built to BS EN Standards: Safety First
The BS EN 16579 and BS EN 748 standards define football goal safety across the UK and Europe. These rules demand that goals—fixed or portable—stay strong, stable and safe for all players. At Mark Harrod Ltd, our football goals ace these tests. We prioritise stability, durability and protection in every design.
Take our garden football goals—they use weighted backbars or robust anchoring to stop tipping, meeting BS EN guidelines head-on. We build with top-grade materials like heavy duty steel and UV-resistant netting to last through years of play. Every edge and joint gets smoothed out to reduce injury risk—crucial for children’s football goals. You’re getting goals that keep everyone safe no matter who’s on the pitch.
IFAB-Approved Dimensions: Precision in Every Goal
The International Football Association Board (IFAB) lays down the Laws of the Game, including the official football goal size for matches. Full-size goals must hit 7.32m wide by 2.44m high (24ft x 8ft). We match that spec perfectly in our professional-grade products. But at Mark Harrod Ltd, we go further with options like mini football goals (6ft x 4ft or 8ft x 6ft) for kids, 5-a-side goals (12ft x 4ft) for fast games and portable football goals that fold up without losing shape.
Sticking to IFAB standards means our goals are ready for anything—from a backyard kickabout to a league showdown.
Safety Features That Go Above and Beyond
Safety isn’t just about hitting the mark—it’s about surpassing it. Our football nets use heavy-duty knotless polyethylene that passes BS EN strength tests. They won’t fray or tear, keeping the ball contained and players protected. Our anchoring systems—ground pegs for pop-up goals or heavy weights for full-size variants—exceed BS EN rules. For portable goals, we mix lightweight builds with rock-solid stability so they stand firm during action.
Why Specifications Matter for Every Player
Whether you’re a parent hunting for a children’s football goal or a coach gearing up with football training equipment, specs make the difference. Shoddy goals can topple, break or fade fast, risking injury and spoiling the fun. Our BS EN and IFAB compliance wipes out those worries. You get peace of mind and gear that holds up.
Our football goals for garden use shine with families. They blend IFAB-approved proportions (scaled for home) with BS EN safety touches like rounded edges and secure fixings. They’re built tough for daily drills and safe for kids to enjoy solo.
A Goal for Every Game—Plus More
At Mark Harrod Ltd, we know sports needs vary. That’s why our lineup features Samba goals—lightweight, portable and BS EN-compliant for casual play. We offer full-size football goals to IFAB spec for clubs and serious players. Our pop-up goals set up in a snap, stay safe for kids and stow away easily. Mini football goals suit small spaces or young athletes perfectly. Every piece gets tested to meet or beat safety and performance standards.
But we don’t stop at goals. Our corner flags, ball stop netting and training equipment—like dugouts and pitch markers—carry the same quality stamp. Based in the UK, we’ve earned a reputation for outfitting teams, schools and homes with gear that lasts.
The Bottom Line: Trust in Every Kick
At Mark Harrod Ltd, we don’t compromise. Our football goals fuse BS EN safety standards with IFAB precision to deliver products you can rely on. Whether you’re sprucing up your garden, kitting out a team or coaching future stars, our goals ensure every shot is safe, secure and spot-on.
