BS EN 16664:2015 PDF Download

A European Standard called BS EN 16664:2015 specifies the functional and safety requirements as well as the testing procedures for lightweight objects. This standard does not, however, apply to goals that are already covered by other specific standards, such as EN 750 (hockey), EN 1270 (basketball), EN 15312 (free access multi-sports), EN 13451-4 (water polo), prEN 16579 (portable and fixed goals), inflatable goals, goals that are considered toys and are overseen by technical committee CEN/TC 52 "Safety of toys," and goals that are designed to move in a specific direction.

The playing field goals used for training or recreational play, both indoors and outdoors, in educational and public facilities as well as recreational locations, must comply with BS EN 16664:2015. This standard makes sure that lightweight goals adhere to the essential safety standards and go through the proper testing procedures to guarantee their operation and dependability while being used.
