A goal for a collapsible, three-dimensional game includes: (a) at least
two generally ring-shaped, openable hoops, each of the hoops being
openable, closable, and coupleable at a hoop coupling of each hoop, the
hoops including at least three post connecting mechanisms; (b) at least
three detachable posts of substantially equal length, the posts being
removably connectable to one of the post connecting mechanisms on the
hoops; (c) a substantially flexible net affixed to an upper one of the
hoops; and (d) a detachable net holding mechanism attachable to the post
connecting mechanisms on each post; wherein, when the goal is in an open,
erect position: a lower one of the hoops rests on the playing surface,
the upper hoop being substantially parallel to and spaced apart from the
lower one of the hoops, the net extending downwardly between the
substantially horizontally oriented hoops.
