This may not work, there are teams with launchers that would obliterate last years net.
The nets would been to be seriously reinforced physically. They fell down often enough when just a small frisbee hit them. Imagine a huge ball, going 30 ft per second? The whole system would collapse, especially if one hit a pole.
