Soccer Equipment & Gear

The Porter Torq-Flex Elite Goal is engineered for premier facilities that see a high volume of top-level talent. Unlike standard flex goals that give from a single direction, the Torq-Flex Elite flexes on all sides of the rim — delivering equal, consistent give regardless of the shot approach and reducing impact into a player's hand from every angle. It's the choice for gyms that host serious, high-intensity play.

Key features & specs:

• Rim: 180-degree flex rim that flexes on all sides for consistent give
• Construction: Ring built with 5/8" alloy steel
• Mount pattern: Fits 5" x 4" to 5" x 4½" configurations
• Compliance: Meets NCAA and NFHS requirements
• Warranty/Model: 7-year limited warranty; includes net and mounting hardware; GP-260180

Coach's tip: Inspect the flex mechanism and mounting bolts at the start of each season and after heavy dunk use to keep performance consistent. Replace the net when worn so the tube-tie attachment stays secure, and confirm your backboard's mount pattern before ordering.

The Porter Center-Strut Glass Backboard gives gymnasiums both the durability and the visual clarity that players, coaches, and fans expect from a premium board. Measuring a regulation 72" x 42", its center-strut design delivers the structural rigidity required to meet NFHS standards — making it a solid choice for high school varsity competition and a smart long-term investment for facilities upgrading aging equipment.

Key features & specs:

• Size: Regulation 72" x 42" glass backboard
• Design: Center-strut configuration for structural rigidity
• Compliance: Meets NFHS standards for high school varsity play
• Performance: Consistent rebound response for a true game feel
• Best for: New builds and equipment upgrades; model GP-208

Coach's tip: Pair the board with a center-strut backstop and add backboard padding for player safety. Have tempered glass boards installed by qualified crews, and confirm your backstop system is center-strut compatible before ordering to ensure a clean, square installation.

The Porter Gill Soccer Nets are regulation full-size replacement nets built from durable square-braided cord to withstand hard shots and season-long outdoor exposure. Sized for standard 8' x 24' soccer goals, they give programs a clean, taut net that clearly signals every goal and holds its shape through heavy match and practice use.

Key features & specs:

• Dimensions: 8' x 24' x 8' x 3' — fits standard regulation soccer goals
• Construction: Square-braided netting for durability and shape retention
• Color: White for high visibility on the pitch
• Use: Replacement or spare nets for full-size soccer goals
• Model: GP-00491824

Coach's tip: Confirm your goal's top depth and bottom run match the 8' x 24' x 8' x 3' profile before ordering so the net hangs without sagging. Secure the bottom with tie-down stakes for a taut look, and let nets dry before storage to prevent mildew and prolong their life.

The Porter Gill Soccer Net Tie-Down Stakes keep soccer nets pulled taut and secured to the ground so the net hangs properly and shots read clearly. Sold as a set of eight heavy formed-steel stakes, they're a practical accessory for any program that wants nets that stay put through matches and windy practices.

Key features & specs:

• Quantity: Set of 8 stakes
• Material: Heavy formed steel, zinc-plated to minimize corrosion
• Function: Secure the net skirt to the ground for a taut, proper hang
• Important: For net tie-down only — not to be used as goal anchors
• Model: GP-00418080

Coach's tip: Drive stakes at an angle away from the net so they hold firmly and pull the netting tight, and always use dedicated goal anchors — never these stakes — to secure the goal frame itself. Pull and store the stakes during mowing to protect both the blades and the crew.

The Porter Gill Soccer Goal Transport Kit takes the strain out of moving portable soccer goals. Its pair of pneumatic wheels attaches to Upper90 portable goals so a single person can roll a heavy goal off the field for mowing, storage, or reconfiguration — no dragging, lifting, or crew required. A simple upgrade that protects both your goals and your grounds crew's backs.

Key features & specs:

• Contents: Two 12" diameter pneumatic wheels
• Function: Allows one person to easily roll portable soccer goals
• Compatibility: Designed for Upper90 portable soccer goals
• Benefit: Reduces field wear and manual lifting during goal moves
• Model: GP-00293000

Coach's tip: Keep the pneumatic tires properly inflated so the goal rolls smoothly over turf and thresholds. Move goals regularly to prevent worn spots and dead grass under the frame, and store goals off the playing surface during the offseason to protect both the field and the equipment.

The Baden Strada is the ultimate freestyle and street soccer ball, engineered to take a beating on hard surfaces while delivering the control and touch players crave. Its thermo-bonded construction and grippy Crossover Cover make it equally at home on pavement, turf, or the training pitch — a durable, all-surface ball that holds its shape and feel through heavy everyday use.

Key features & specs:

• Size: Official Size 5 (ages 12 and up)
• Construction: Thermo-bonded, thermally fused polyurethane cover with elastic foam backing to retain shape and softness
• Cover: Crossover Cover for superior control, grip, and durability on any surface
• Best for: Freestyle, street play, and training on hard or abrasive surfaces
• Model: SFL5

Coach's tip: Keep the ball inflated to the recommended pressure for the truest touch, and rotate several Stradas through skills stations so players get consistent reps. Wipe off grit after street sessions and store indoors at room temperature to protect the bonded cover.
