A collapsible sports goal comprising goal posts, supporting members, and a
folding means for selective pivoting of the supporting members between an
erect configuration and a collapsed configuration without disassembly.
Each goal post has a base portion. An upper supporting member includes a
crossbar engaging the goal posts. A lower supporting member includes left
and right support bars and a rear interposed member engaged therebetween.
Forward portions of the support bars securely and pivotably engage the
goal posts adjacent to the base portion. The folding means engages the
upper and lower supporting members in secure pivotable relation. In the
erect configuration, the support bars extend rearwardly and normal to the
goal posts, and the folding means extends vertically. In the collapsed
configuration, the support bars extend parallel to the goal posts in a
vertical direction.
