Plastic Football Goals how straight is your crossbar?

Plastic Football Goals with dipping crossbars have been around for many years in particular the Samba Goals on the 12′ x6′ Mini Soccer Goals and on the larger 9 v 9 16′ x 7′   youth plastic football goals. We now however have a new player in the market Forza Goals who seem to have in our opinion the same problem with dipping crossbars.  Many sales pictures of Mini Soccer football goals from other suppliers often do not show this important feature and do not show the plastic goals in actual use. Buyers ,we feel, ought to be aware that goals to the current safety standards do not allow crossbars to dip in the middle more than ten millimetres and that plastic football goals are actually available with straight crossbars.  It is possible to see the differences between the Forza Goals, the Samba Goals and the ITSA GOAL posts in these photographs of all three Mini soccer Goals. The differences on the crossbars on Forza Goals,Samba goals compared to our own ITSA GOAL posts is clear for all to see. If users want plastic Mini Soccer Goals with straight crossbars, net supports secured to the goal frame and nets neatly attached to the rear of the posts are available for much the same money so why not look around and find the best value for money. The only football goal engineered to this standard and the only one that offers  a longer  manufacturers warranty is ITSA GOAL. The picture of the ITSA Mini Soccer Goal  in use at the Football Association training facility in Burton shows the differences in the Plastic goal posts.
