Re: Propose possible fixes for high goals

What about just a ramp that's similar to the low goal ramp? It would make the ball more likely to stay in the goal

Re: Propose possible fixes for high goals

How about astro turf or shag carpet to absorb the energy?

Re: Propose possible fixes for high goals

Has first even acknowledged that they see it as an issue? As far as I'm concerned, it's just something that teams should get used to.

I agree, they gave us a huge target to put a ball through this year and I think that this is a perfect challenge for teams to have to adapt strategies to.

Re: Propose possible fixes for high goals

Teams need to shoot closer & up through the goal. Those w/ a flat shot from further away or are going through the upper goal on the flat hang or down arc are the only ones that will have the problem of bounce back through the opening.

Don't fix it. Deal w/ it teams, and alter your shooting, as week one matches are already underway.
