Locking or non locking frame?
The Samba locking system is a simplistic but effective securing mechanism made up of a button and hole system that locks all of the goal parts together. This ensures that none of the parts come adrift when moving the posts from one position to another.
The Samba non locking system is where all the parts just sleve together. The non locking system is great for when goals have to be assembled and disassembled on a regular basis.
What is a Samba FUN Goal?
The Samba Fun Goals have been designed for garden or training use and are made from recycled uPVC. Whilst this offers a cost saving it does not compromise on quality and is just as strong as the original Samba goals. As a result the goal frame is not quite as bright white as the other Samba goals.
