BS EN 748:2013+A1:2018 PDF Download

The functional and safety requirements for football goals are set forth in the BS EN 748:2013+A1:2018 standard. This standard is applicable to different sizes and types of football goals used in indoor and outdoor venues for both practice and competition.

The standard does not apply to some types of goals, such as those described in EN 16579 (lightweight goals) and EN 16664 (goals with sizes of 5,00 m 2,00 m and 7,32 m 2,44 m and particular weight specifications).

The football goals' design and construction are subject to functional requirements, which make sure they fulfill the criteria for reliable and safe use. The safety criteria put a lot of emphasis on reducing the hazards connected to the goals, such as stability, structural integrity, and the avoidance of player entrapment or injury. The standard also specifies test procedures for determining compliance with these requirements.
