Frequently asked questions
Here are the frequently asked questions about hockey goal accessories.
What field hockey accessories do I need?
That depends on the type of field hockey goal or dugout and how intensively it is used. Popular choices include field hockey nets, transport wheels, net hooks, net strips, damping mats, and separate side panels for dugouts.
Are transport wheels suitable for every hockey goal?
The loose transport wheels from SKOR are suitable for senior hockey goals with a backboard. They are mounted on the backboard, making it easier to move the goal.
When do you use damping mats for a hockey goal?
Damping mats are used during training sessions to protect the backboard and reduce the noise of hockey balls hitting it. They are suitable for all hockey goals with a backboard.
Can I replace just the side panel of a hockey dugout?
Yes. For Type 1 dugouts, loose 3 and 4 mm polycarbonate side panels are available. For Type 2 dugouts, 3 mm polycarbonate side panels are available.
How do you attach a hockey goal net to the goal?
Hockey goal nets can be securely attached to the frame and back construction of the hockey goal with net hooks and net clips.
Which hockey goal net fits my goal?
The right hockey goal net depends, among other things, on the type of goal, the material of the net, the thread thickness, and the intensity of use. For intensive use, a stronger version is generally more suitable.

- Damping Mats
- Side Panels for Hockey Dugouts
Hockey Goal Nets for Various Applications
A good hockey goal net must match the type of goal and the intensity of its use. Material and wire thickness play a role in this. A different version may suffice for light use than for a goal that is intensively used during training sessions and hockey matches.
Transport Wheels for Senior Hockey Goals
Separate transport wheels are available for senior hockey goals with a backboard. These are mounted on the backboard and make it easier to move a goal, for example, during training sessions or when working on the field. The wheels are equipped with a soft profiled PU tire and have a load capacity of 300 kg per wheel.
In addition, there are hockey goals that are already equipped with wheels as standard. For existing senior hockey goals with a backboard, transport wheels can be mounted as a separate addition.
Net Strips for Secure Net Fastening
A hockey goal net must remain securely attached to the goal. Various net fastening systems are available for this, including net hooks and net strips. These parts can be used to replace an existing fastening system or to re-attach the net properly along the frame and back structure of the goal.
Damping Mats for Hockey Goals
Damping mats protect the backboard of the hockey goal and reduce the noise of balls hitting the board. They are therefore particularly practical during training sessions. The mats consist of 3 cm high-quality foam rubber, are finished with black tarpaulin, and are attached to the top of the backboard with Velcro.
The damping mats are suitable for all hockey goals with a backboard, but are exclusively intended for training purposes. Two damping mats are required for a senior hockey goal.
Side Panels for Hockey Dugouts
Separate side panels are also available for hockey dugouts. This is practical when an existing panel is damaged or needs to be replaced, without having to replace the entire dugout immediately.
For Type 1 dugouts, polycarbonate side panels are available in 3 mm and 4 mm thickness. For Type 2 dugouts, 3 mm polycarbonate side panels are available. When replacing, it is important to carefully check which type of dugout and which panel thickness are required.
Which Field Hockey Accessories Do You Need?
Which parts are suitable depends on the type of hockey goal or dugout and how it is used. If senior hockey goals are regularly moved, transport wheels can be a practical addition. For existing dugouts, a damaged side panel can often be replaced individually. This way, an entire product does not always have to be renewed when only one part needs replacing.
