My Project

Soccer is the favorite sport to play during recess for the majority of our students in grades 3-5, and soccer skills are what many students look forward to the most during PE. Students are very creative and use many items, such as sweatshirts and lunch bags, in place of soccer goals, but nothing can quite replicate the feeling of scoring a goal the way an actual goal can.

I was fortunate to borrow PUGG goals at a previous school, and they are the best for their versatility, durability, and portability.

I have found that in addition to soccer skills, PUGG goals are excellent for use when playing disc golf and team handball, as well as many other throwing and kicking skills and activities.
