TNZMART Black Spring Agility Training Pole Set Soccer Plug-in Type Dribbling Pole Coaching Sticks for Sports, Traning, Warning

This product made through several practice games and still going strong. The pieces are really sturdy and I will definitely buy from the again.

I have two sets of these. One in red and one in yellow, and I can't wait to incorporate them into my youth girls' soccer practices. I've been coaching for many years at this point and feel so fortunate to get great groups year in and year out that actually care about the team, practices, and games. As a coach, you could ask for nothing more....especially when they're winning championships every year. ;0)I am really excited to get these training programs into practice next year. There were a number of drills that involve vertical barriers, obstacles to replicate opposing team, traffic, etc. and I haven't been able to integrate them into practice. With these, now I can! I have eight of them and they open a whole new way to teach and practice congestion, finding space, etc. They can also serve as great obstacle course and of course agility poles, which is there advertised purpose. I think these are really going to help the kids latch on to difficult concepts and I can't wait to see them put the skills into action on the pitch!

I only received 12 pvc tubes. No ground nail base and no connectors.

These seem to be pretty well made. Its been winter so haven't really had much chance to put these to a real test yet, but based on construction, they should be good. Will update after more use.

I purchased the almost 5 foot set of 4 agility poles.These work well! Easy to put together, very straightforward. The yellow is bright and makes them very visible on the training field. The included metal spike bases are durable and aggressive. Easy to stab into the ground and hold the poles very well. The spring feature of the base does a good job of having some give so that if players run into it, it will lean and then return to position, but it also won't tilt over nor snap back too quickly. Further, the base grips the pole well so that they don't slip out during activity or impact.An additional positive of these poles is that because of the needle-like base that is included, they also have a protective rubber cover. A downside of the product is that these poles do not come with a carry bag. However, if you have an agility pole carry bag, it would probably be fine to store the protective covers and simply put them back on after each straining, and then you wouldn't have to worry about them sticking holes through the bag. And if you feel placing them base-downward in a bag is too much of a risk, returning the plastic covers on for safety and placing the base facing up would be an easy solution. Another option could be to simply take the bases off each time and face them away from any cloth material so as not to poke holes. A final solution is to purchase a bag with a hard plastic bottom or create a hard plastic insert yourself.Of course, if you don't wish for that kind of hassle at the end of every training session, you'll need to figure something else out. These don't have a screw in capability that some other agility poles have.All in all, a durable, solid product that does the job well.

These poles are great for soccer training. Each pole comes in two plastic pieces with a plastic male-male connector piece to unite the two halves. And they have a nice metal spring base with a metal spike.PROS: Easy assembly.... just use a little bit of force to snap the pole halves together using the connector piece and to slip the base into the metal spike. No tools required. Bright colors add to visibility. Durable but lightweight. Heavy-duty spring in the base holds the pole up firmly but has all the needed give to protect the pole when it is bumped by a player or ball. Small footplate on the spike that is VERY useful for driving the pole into the ground. The spike is very solid and doesn't bend even when driven into firm ground. Great height to force players into the desired path for training—they can't clip the pole or cut over top of them.CONS: Only complaint would be portability. I guess the poles could be disassembled for storage and transportation, but it's not easy to that and I'd be concerned that the connectors would get damaged if I did that every time I used them. So you're stuck moving very large poles without bundling ties or a bag for transportation. I've used poles that have halves that screw into each other that are much easier to disassemble for transport and storage.

The sleek design adds a professional touch to our training sessions. Easy plug-in setup and durable construction make them ideal for soccer drills. The spring feature adds versatility and challenge to our agility exercises. Overall, a must-have for any serious soccer player or coach looking to elevate their game

I think the best part about these slalom poles is that when you assemble them, they do not fall out at the attachment point when moving them or inserting, removing from the ground. I used these in an obstacle course and they held up well to some racer impacts. I think the springs have the right amount of give to keep them upright while absorbing impact. I am really pleased with these slalom poles.
