Thus, I have constructed some official goals. These were simple and easy. I made some uprights and crossbars out of balsa wood and dressmaker pins. I then glued them to rectangles of thick carboard and reinforced them with a heavy blop of brown stuff, which I have found easier to work with than greenstuff. The plan is to paint each of them a single bold colour.
A friend asked if I was going to introduce a two-tiered scoring system - one for in the goal and another for over the crossbar, as seen in Gaelic football. I haven't thought of any fun rules for that, but I'll mull it over!
Hopefully with a little paint and a lot of flocking, these will come to life.

My first thought on see the goals was also, is there an extra point for over the bar.
