Very easy to setup and use. Good way to get more practice in or just stay busy.
I took the flags and placed them in the ground at different angles so the flag part is 2 feet , 4 feet off the ground. Then had her stand back far enough that she could aim and try to hit the targets. This had really improved her kicking and knowing when and how to position herself and her foot to get the ball where needed.
This worked so great I purchased 3 more to keep in my coaches bag and I now have my team use these during practices.
The trainer itself I would say is geared more for youths. The waist band does not go around my waist and I usually wear a 32 or 33 waist in jeans. For my youth U11 team they work great with a lot of room left over if needed.
They fit our size 4 balls with no issues at all.
So far the elastic has held up very well and I have not had any fraying or damage at all. Yes they will twist up almost immediately but that does not really hurt anything while using them. I always straighten them out and inspect after ever practice to ensure no issues arise.
These also help for learning how to receive a ball and trap it. Like I tell my kids, the harder you kick the quicker and harder it will be coming right back at you so be prepared.
Overall these are great so any soccer player looking to improve in their skills.
A quick and easy way to get more touches.
