Re: Propose possible fixes for high goals

Is it possible to incorporate a layer of energy absorbing netting/chains far enough back from goal mouth to avoid bounce-back?

I haven't been able to watch the matches so I don't know the geometry of the problem.

What is the general angle and/or velocity of shots are most likely to bounce back out? Or does it occur on a variety of shot-types?

Of course, the fix needs to avoid a new set of bounce-out problems.

(I'm surprised that this problem has reappeared after last year's tendency of frisbees sliding out in high-scoring matches. Regardless of game, counting goals that are scored should be very high on the "required" specs. for field design.)
