Frequently Asked Questions About Football Training Equipment

1. What field goal posts do you carry?

Our field goal posts collection features a full range of goalposts from three trusted brands — First Team, Trigon Sports, and Bison. Options range from the backyard-friendly Gridiron™ Backyard Football Goalpost by First Team to professional competition-grade installations like the Bison 5-9/16" Gooseneck Football Goalposts and All Pro™ Football Goalpost by First Team.

2. What is the difference between high school and collegiate field goal posts?

High school and collegiate field goal posts differ primarily in upright height and crossbar width. The Trigon Official H.S. Goal Post and Bison 4-1/2" Gooseneck High School Football Goalposts are built to NFHS specifications, while the Trigon Official Collegiate Goal Post and Bison 5-9/16" Gooseneck Football Goalposts meet NCAA standards. Choosing the right spec ensures your field is competition-legal for the level you're hosting.

3. What field goal post is best for a backyard or home setup?

The Gridiron™ Backyard Football Goalpost by First Team is the ideal choice for residential use — designed for durability and realistic kicking practice without the full scale and cost of a stadium installation. Starting from $1,082, it gives serious kickers a proper target at home to develop accuracy and technique. Pair it with the Extra Point Football Net by The Net Return from our kicking nets collection for a complete home kicking setup.

4. What brands of field goal posts do you carry?

We carry field goal posts from First Team, Trigon Sports, and Bison — all respected manufacturers of institutional athletic equipment. First Team is also behind some of our top volleyball nets, and Trigon Sports produces equipment across multiple sports including our Trigon Football Passing Net.

5. Do you carry goalpost padding for player safety?

Yes — the Bison Competition 5" Thick Football Goalpost Pad is a heavy-duty safety pad designed to protect players from post contact during live play. It's an essential addition to any competition or practice field goal post installation, and is required under many state athletic association and NCAA safety guidelines. Browse it alongside our full field goal posts collection.

6. What is the First Team goalpost lineup and how do the models differ?

First Team offers three competition goalposts at ascending levels of performance and specification. The All Star™ Football Goalpost is the entry-level competition post starting at $5,295. The All American™ Football Goalpost steps up in build quality starting at $7,764. The All Pro™ Football Goalpost is First Team's flagship — starting at $9,854 — built for programs that demand the absolute highest standard of construction and longevity.

7. Are Bison goalposts suitable for high school and college fields?

Yes — Bison manufactures goalposts to both NFHS and NCAA specifications.

Both feature gooseneck offset designs that place the upright behind the end line for player safety.

8. Should I pair a field goal post with a kicking net?

Absolutely — a field goal post paired with a kicking net like the Extra Point Football Net by The Net Return creates the most efficient kicking training setup available. The net captures the ball automatically after each kick, keeping the session moving at high rep rates without the athlete having to chase balls — turning a solo session into a genuine high-volume development tool.

9. What other football training equipment do you carry?

Beyond field goal posts, our full football collection includes football throwing machines from Sports Attack and JUGS — including the Aerial Attack and JUGS Field General™ — plus kicking & passing nets and training & accessories to complete any practice setup.

Pair with a scoreboard and kicking & passing nets to round out a complete game-day and practice environment.

Why Field Goal Post Quality Matters

A field goal post is one of the most permanent investments a football program makes. Unlike training equipment that moves between sessions or gets stored between seasons, a goalpost is installed once and expected to perform reliably for years — through weather, wind, game-day impacts, and the daily wear of an active athletic facility. Choosing a post that's undersized, underbuilt, or out of spec doesn't just create maintenance headaches — it can disqualify your field from hosting sanctioned competition entirely.

The specifications that govern high school and collegiate football goalposts are set by the NFHS and NCAA respectively, and they're specific: crossbar height, upright height above the crossbar, overall width, and the offset gooseneck design that positions the upright safely behind the end line. A post that doesn't meet those specifications isn't competition-legal, regardless of how well-built it is in other respects. That's why every goalpost in our field goal posts collection is engineered to specification by manufacturers who build institutional athletic equipment as their core business — not a side product.

Beyond compliance, build quality determines longevity. Heavy-gauge steel, powder-coated weather-resistant finishes, and precision welded construction are the difference between a post that looks and performs like new a decade from installation and one that shows rust, flex, and wear within a few seasons. Our brands — First Team, Trigon Sports, and Bison — are all manufacturers with proven track records in school and college athletic installations nationwide.

First Team Field Goal Posts

First Team is one of the most comprehensive manufacturers of institutional athletic equipment in North America — the same brand behind some of our most popular volleyball net systems — and their football goalpost lineup reflects the same commitment to quality, compliance, and long-term durability that defines everything they make. First Team offers four goalposts across a range of specifications and price points, from a backyard-ready residential option to an elite-grade competition post.

The Gridiron™ Backyard Football Goalpost by First Team is the ideal goalpost for serious players who want a real, durable target for home training.

For schools outfitting practice fields, junior varsity fields, or smaller athletic facilities, the All Star™ delivers the regulation quality and First Team durability that athletic directors trust.

All American™ Football Goalpost by First Team

The All American™ Football Goalpost by First Team steps up in build specification and material quality, starting from $7,764.

Starting from $8,723, it's the right choice for junior college programs, four-year institutions, and elite high school programs that want to train their kickers on the exact post dimensions they'll face in collegiate competition. Preparing kickers on collegiate-spec posts is a meaningful competitive advantage in kicker development, and the Trigon Collegiate post makes that possible at an institutional price point.

Bison Field Goal Posts

Bison is one of the most recognized names in football goalpost manufacturing, known for their gooseneck offset design that positions the upright safely behind the end line — a feature required by both NFHS and NCAA safety regulations and a hallmark of Bison's entire football goalpost lineup. Their range covers both high school and collegiate specifications, and includes goalpost padding for complete player safety compliance.

Bison 4-1/2" Gooseneck High School Football Goalposts (Pair)

The 4-1/2" post diameter delivers the structural integrity needed for a permanent high school game field installation, and the gooseneck offset keeps the upright safely positioned to meet modern safety standards.

The Bison Competition 5" Thick Football Goalpost Pad is an essential safety accessory for any competition goalpost installation. At 5 inches of protective foam thickness, it absorbs the impact of player contact with the post during end zone plays, kickoffs, and special teams situations — protecting athletes from serious injury and keeping your facility compliant with safety requirements under NFHS and NCAA guidelines. For programs investing in Bison goalposts, this pad is the logical companion that completes the installation properly.

How to Choose the Right Field Goal Post

With a full range of options across three brands, here's a straightforward guide to choosing the right post for your program.

High school programs should look at the Trigon Official H.S. Goal Post, Bison 4-1/2" Gooseneck High School Goalposts, or First Team's All Star™ and All American™ options — all built to NFHS specifications.

Collegiate programs should consider the Trigon Official Collegiate Goal Post, the Bison 5-9/16" Gooseneck Goalposts, or the All Pro™ by First Team — all NCAA-compliant and built for the higher demands of college-level play.

Backyard and individual training setups are best served by the Gridiron™ Backyard Football Goalpost by First Team, which delivers real goalpost functionality at a residential scale and price point.

Always add padding. Regardless of which post you choose, the Bison Competition 5" Goalpost Pad is the responsible addition to any competition installation — required under most sanctioning body safety guidelines and a critical layer of protection for your players.
