Description

Sports goals and targets are structures or designated areas used in various sports to score points or achieve objectives. They come in diverse types and styles, each tailored to the demands of a specific sport. Examples include soccer goals with nets, basketball hoops, and archery targets. These structures provide a clear aim for players, helping them focus on achieving goals, be it scoring in a game or hitting a target with precision. Sports goals and targets are integral to the rules and objectives of many sports, found in various settings, from stadiums to local parks, facilitating competitive and recreational play.

History
History

Sports goals and targets have evolved over time. Initially, they were simple markers like stones or posts used to designate scoring areas. As sports became more organized, goalposts and targets became standardized. In ancient Greece, for example, they used wooden posts for javelin throwing. In medieval Europe, archery targets were made of straw. The 19th century saw the development of soccer goals with nets and basketball hoops, making scoring more precise. Over centuries, the designs of goals and targets gradually became more specialized and refined, aligning with the evolving rules and requirements of various sports.

Future
Future

The future of sports goals and targets will witness continued innovation in design and technology. For instance, soccer goals might incorporate sensors to determine if a ball crossed the line. Basketball hoops may be adjustable with touch-screen controls to change the hoop height. In archery, digital targets could provide instant feedback on accuracy.

Trends will focus on enhancing accuracy, interactivity, and accessibility, making sports more engaging and inclusive. These advancements align with contemporary demands for precision, data-driven performance, and a more interactive sporting experience, ensuring that goals and targets continue to play a vital role in sports of all kinds.

Ice Hockey Goal
Front elevation drawing of an Ice Hockey goal with hockey goalie and dimensions

Ice Hockey Goals are placed on each end of the Ice Hockey Rink and are used for scoring points in a game of Ice Hockey. To score a goal, the entire hockey puck must cross the goal that is being defended by the goalie (goaltender). Ice Hock Goals are constructed of bent tubed steel and a net to catch any made shot.

For professional ice hockey, the opening of the goal is 72” (180 cm) wide, 48” (120 cm) high, and has a depth of 40” (100 cm). This opening is held rigid by a metal tube frame that is roughly 2” (5 cm) in diameter and is enclosed by mesh net with an opening size of 1 5/8” (4.1 cm). The base of the goal is rounded with 18" (45.7 cm) radii and an overall width of 88” (223.5 cm).

Billiards | Pool Table Pockets

Billiard | Pool Tables are engineered with six pockets — one in each corner and two centered on the longs sides. Pockets, varying in design from simple drop pockets to elaborate ball returns, differ in shape and dimension between Corner Pockets and Side Pockets. Corner pockets have openings sized the width of two billiard balls (2 1/4” | 5.7 cm) at 4 1/2”-4 5/8” | 11.4-11.7 cm. Side Pockets have mouths 1/2” | 1.27 cm larger than corner pockets for a total opening of 5”-5 1/4” | 12.7-13.3 cm. The perimeter of a pool table is made up of inner cushions with depths of 2” | 5.1 cm attached to outer rails of 5” | 12.7 cm.

Darts Throwing Distance

The throwing distance in the game of darts is regulated at 7’ 9.25” | 2.37 m from the oche to the front face of the dartboard. Dartboards must be hung on the wall with the center of the bullseye at 5’8” | 1.73 m from the floor—a height established based on the eye-level of a six foot man. Used in professional dart games, a standard oche is 2’ | .6 m wide and 1.5” | 38 mm tall to clearly establish the regulation throwing line. Casual darts environments may choose to use tape or another type of surface marking to identify the oche.

Field Hockey Goal
Elevation illustrations of a Field Hockey Goal with a goalie

A Field Hockey Goal is used to catch the Field Hockey Ball while playing Field Hockey. Field Hockey Goals are required to play and are each placed at both ends of the field. A Field Hockey Goal is rectangular in shape and is constructed from 2 upright posts that are joined at the top through a horizontal crossbar. It also has sideboards and a backboard. The crossbars are typically made of aluminum to be able to withstand different hits. Practice Field Hockey Goals are typically foldable and may have when or a rebound board. A Field Hockey Goal is typically white and has a black net.

Field Hockey Goals have a regulated inside width of 12’ (3.66 m), inside height of 7’ (2.14 m), and depth of 47.24” (1.2 m). The backboards that surround the goal have a height of 19.69” (50 cm). The weight of a Field Hockey Goal is typically 200 lb (90 kg).
