Backyard Goalpost
Kids can practice their placekicking -- and increase the challenge as their aim improves -- with this adjustable goalpost made from pool noodles.
- What You Need
-
- Two 48-inch (1/2-inch diameter) wooden dowels
- 3 pool noodles
- 2 pool noodle connectors
- Football
- Instructions
-
-
For your own goalpost, first mark two spots 5 feet apart for the uprights. Set a dowel 6 inches into the ground at each spot, then slip a pool noodle over each dowel. Fit a pool noodle connector on each end of the third noodle, then slide the connectors onto the upright noodles for a crossbar.
-
Have kids take turns holding the pigskin and booting it over the goalpost, gradually sliding the crossbar higher as they master each height.
-
- Tips:
- No pool noodles left over from the summer swimming season? You can order noodles and connectors online at www.poolcenter.com or www.pooltoy.com.
