This is an excellent piece of training equipment that really helps to sharpen and hone the reactions. It is very expensive in my opinion but that's what you expect for anything to do with goalkeepers and their kit economies of scale certainly screw us all here. As they are made from recycled tyres, you should expect them to be quite heavy..... and they are! This is great in that they stay put once placed on the pitch but they're a pain to carry to and from the pitch. As you can't bend them because otherwise they'll break I recommend you carry them at the bottom of a spare goalie bag with the rest of your coaching equipment or use a couple of ladder lock straps to hang them off your shoulder. I have found that they work better in pairs as they cover more area in front of goal as not everyone is skilful and accurate enough to get the ball to hit a single Deflecta every time. It also gives you option of having the mats facing opposite ways and therefore giving a high and low profile for more unpredictability. I definitely recommend that you have a look at the Obo Goalkeeping YouTube channel to see how they suggest you utilise the mats. youtube.com/user/obogoalkeeping. All in all, the Deflecta is an excellent coaching tool but the price is prohibitively high and likely to only be affordable to more well off clubs. Thankfully I have a forward thinking and supportive club that see the importance of supplying quality training equipment to both outfield and goalkeepers alike.jonathan, lichfieldWas this review helpful to you?yes no

Bigger than expected 1metre perfect for warm ups and training where only one striker is available. Even a slow ball can deflect in both height and width. Can be used for one-on-one training, reactions, short corners etc... Brilliant. Just don't bend it too farcraig, king s lynnWas this review helpful to you?yes no
