Overview

The goal shown here is a three-dimensional triangle made from PVC plumbing pipes wrapped in deer netting. And while the instructions are for a 4-by-5-foot goal, you can adapt the measurements to make your goal any size you want. The best part is that cutting and assembling the sections of pipe is so simple and safe, kids can help out at every step. They’ll be amazed and how quickly they can cut through the plastic tubing, and they’ll have a ball assembling the 20 different PVC pieces like a giant puzzle. Just be sure a parent supervises the gluing stage, as the small amount of time you have to adjust the pipes before the glue sets up means working in a jiffy. Deer netting, a strong but supple mesh, is an inexpensive alternative to a rope net, and it attaches easily to the pipes with common zip ties.
