3v3 Football Goals

Under 7s now use the 3 v 3 format and football goals as part of the FA Future Fit programme. This means children aged six and seven will play 3 v 3 as their entry into organised football, replacing the previously used 5 v 5 format.

The FA recommended goal size for the 3 v 3 format is 4ft x 2.5ft (120cm x 75cm), however goals with dimensions of 5ft x 3ft are also commonly used. The goals are small because there are no goalkeepers and the football pitches are also small and compact at this level.

Yes, the majority of 3 v 3 goals in the FORZA range are designed to be portable. The FORZA ProFlex Pop Up Football Goal and the POD goals can be folded down in seconds and carried in the bag or with the carry strap supplied. The goals will fit easily into most car boots for transport to training sessions, festivals and matchdays.

Yes, the FORZA 3 v 3 goals can be used on all surfaces that football is played on. That includes natural grass, 3G and 4G astroturf, indoor sports halls and hard court areas.

When buying a 3 v 3 goal, look at how easy it is to set up and how stable the goal is once assembled. For example, the FORZA POD Goal product pages have videos that demonstrate how quickly they can be set up and how stable they are during play. Check to see how much the goals weigh and whether they fold into a carry bag for easy transport. Finally, take note of what the frames are made of. Aluminium is considered the highest quality material for football goals at any level.

Pop up goals like the FORZA ProFlex Goals are designed for convenience. The ProFlex range uses a fibreglass and PVC frame that can be folded down and set up in seconds. This makes them ideal for parents, schools and coaches who need a lightweight goal they can carry to different locations and pack away once the session is over. Aluminium goals like the FORZA Alu80 and the FORZA POD are slightly heavier and more rigid. This produces a sturdier feel that is much closer to a senior matchday goal. The reinforced aluminium used in the Alu80 goals also means they can be left outside all year round without any issues. Aluminium goals are the preferred choice for professional clubs, academies and training grounds where the goals will be used regularly and do not need to be transported to a different location each week. Both types are suitable for the 3 v 3 format and both can be used on grass, astroturf and indoor surfaces. The right choice comes down to how often you need to move the goals and whether your players want the satisfying ping of a football hitting the aluminium frame!
