HOW DO THEY
WORK?
GroundAug's screw-in auger is welded to a surface clevis to
form a secure socket into which any ground skid segment of a
full-size portable goal will fit. Once a portion of the goal is
nestled within GroundAug's clevis flanges, connect either a lock
or a nut & bolt across the flanges, thereby precluding the
goal segment's removal. The goal cannot be made to tip, nor can it
be moved until the lock (or nut & bolt) is removed.
GroundAug, second
generation-designed to accept either square or round tubing. Same
quick, easy ground insertion. Same anchored stability. Requires
hundreds of pounds of "pull" to unearth, OR, just ten
counter-rotations to remove.
NOTE:
Custom GroundAugs accommodating unique goal sizes are available! |

the President: |

"If
you can find better quality, more value for your dollar, or goals which
are more portable than those we manufacture, please disregard our
efforts. Since 1991 we've been in business to make a
difference: to innovate, to manufacture, and to sell direct only the
finest soccer equipment."

The goals were great at the (birthday) party. . . Tightening the back spikes is a little tricky relative to getting the correct tightness in the net. This of course also affects the stability of the goal when hit hard by the ball. But once you get it, it's no problem. Assembly is easy. Of course when setting up the first one you are always more careful and take your time (at least I did) so it took longer. But after the first one, it's easy.... A couple of minutes to install when you are used to it... Durability appears great at this point... I have yet to install the expander kits...
