Abstract

A net assembly for practicing soccer shooting and foot skills. The net is constructed from an elastomer material so that the ball is returned to or at least toward the user. It has two usable sides and each side has a different purpose. One side has five target holes, one in the center and the other four located toward each of the four corners. The holes are approximately two feet in diameter. When the user hits a target hole the ball remains inside the assembly. The other side of the assembly is a full net with a bulls eye drawn in the center.
