The Essential range and our take on our training.
Using our field observations and through discussions with coaches, we were able to note various needs when laying out exercises: marking points on the ground, dodging, etc. To meet these needs, we designed the Essential range. It's made up of clever, affordable products that fulfil a major function (marking out drills, creating targets, etc.) to help you run fun, effective training sessions for all age groups. The Essential hurdle creates an obstacle to be jumped over. Follow the story!
Our football design team explains the Essential range's identity
"We wanted to continue the story of the Essential range with this new hurdle. We included the iconic arrow shape, which also helps our trainers position the hurdle in the right direction so it can tilt if hit, and avoid injuring players".
Reliability and durability tested on the pitch
A visual identity that continues the Essential story!But above all, we wanted this hurdle to improve your training sessions for as long as possible. To reassure ourselves, we tested our products on the pitch. These demanding tests under real conditions confirmed that the flexible plastic gives this hurdle real resistance.
Responsible design
This product is the result of eco-friendly design. Firstly, the feet of the hurdle are made from recyclable plastic. We also chose to make this hurdle available as a kit: It takes only a few seconds to assemble, and allowed us to drastically reduce the space it takes up for transport. In addition to this, we manufactured it in Europe rather than Asia, and we are proud to be able to offer a product that is truly eco-friendly.
