Frequently Asked Questions

What sports are these backstops for?

All of them. The same Defender Series system contains errant balls behind soccer and lacrosse goals, field hockey cages, baseball and softball home plates, and football end zones — anywhere a ball leaving the field is a safety issue or a lost-ball problem. Multi-use complexes are our most common installation.

How tall should a backstop be?

20 feet handles nearly every sport: high enough for baseball and softball foul balls, lofted soccer and lacrosse shots, and field goals sailing past the net. That's the standard height for our Defender Series systems.

How long does backstop netting last?

With proper care, commercial nylon netting lasts 7-10+ years. The key is lowering the net during off-season. Our hoist system makes this easy: one person can raise or lower the full net in minutes.
