Matching Soccer Field Sizes to Soccer Goals

Soccer Field Dimensions

We have published a table to help you figure out what size soccer field you'd like to build or help match a set of soccer goals to an already existing field. A soccer field can vary quite a bit for players 16 to 35 years old and even more for those outside that range. If you have any questions about your field or the goals you'll need for your field, we'd love to help you answer your questions.

Is it generally better for youth players on the verge of U-16 to play on a larger field or smaller field?
 
Thanks for your question! That would depend a lot on the skills and fitness level of the players and the coaching objectives. Players with more endurance will maintain their skill level on a larger field while players with less endurance will degrade their skill level on a larger field because of fatigue. For the most part, retaining and executing fundamental player skills, even if it means using smaller fields, is a priority.
