Essential football training equipment

After watching countless training sessions and speaking at length with football coaches, we've developed a range of training products designed to make drills easier to set up (marking points on the ground, cones and poles for dribbling, etc).
That's why we've come up with the ESSENTIAL range: clever and affordable products that are designed to MARK OUT SPACES AND CREATE TARGETS so that training sessions can be FUN and EFFECTIVE across all age groups.

A visual identity all of its own

"When we sat down to design the ESSENTIAL range, we wanted to create products with a sense of motion. That's why we gave them a direction of their own, with every product taking the form of an arrow, giving the range its own unique identity. With the agility ladder for example, the rungs are curved and point in the same direction. It's intuitive and fun, even for younger kids. The arrows show you when to speed up and when to slow down."

Let's take a closer look at the essential product range

AGILITY LADDER

Essential agility ladder

Products that are shaped and designed for more effective training sessions.
"The Essential agility ladder measures 3.2m long and comprises seven rungs spaced 51cm apart.
"The size and spacings are perfect and are not too long, even for kids. We wanted to create a basic product that's affordable, easy to put away and use so that you don't waste time at training sessions."

SPEED HURDLES

Essential adjustable "three-height" speed hurdles

These speed hurdles are easy to adjust and can be set at three different heights (15, 25 and 30cm).
Ideal for plyometric exercises which involve using body weight to work muscles.

Pack of 10 essential flat markers

"We wanted to take a basic product that's been around forever and give it an identity of its own. The goal was to rework an iconic product that nobody's ever paid much attention to. Flat markers are used in every football drill. We've given them a unique shape to reflect Kipsta's strong identity.Even a plain old flat marker can look good."

A unique and more practical design.
- Goodbye packaging! The markers come with nothing more than a sticker.
- With their pyramid shape, the ball bounces off them in a more realistic way, off the sides of the marker.
- They feature a matte arrow that shows players which direction to take during drills: you go in on one side and go out on the other.
- They're also designed to be tossed on the ground so you can get your drills set up quickly."

Essential 15cm cone

Make your training sessions go better! These sturdy and stable arrow-shaped cones intuitively point players in the right direction during football training sessions.
"When we decided to rework the design of the 15cm cone, our aim was to give it an identity of its own and make it appealing. We wanted the design to express a direction. We used matt and gloss textures to create an arrow design. Used across the entire Essential range,it's a motif that expresses the idea of direction at training ground drills. And it goes without saying that we felt it important to make these accessories reliable and visible."

Essential 30cm cone

Our football-playing designers have developed this large arrow-shaped cone to make your training sessions at your club or in your garden easier to set up and more effective.
"With this new and larger cone we wanted to continue the saga of the Essential range. That's why we've given it the iconic arrow shape, achieved in the main thanks to the use of matt and gloss textures. These cones can be used as obstacles to dribble or run round or to mark out a playing area. The arrow shows players which side they should run round it. We wanted to create sturdy cones that are also easy to see."

To ensure that the cones stay upright on both grass and artificial pitches, our design team came up with an ingenious solution.They made notches in the base of the cone to create a kind of comb effect and allow blades of grass to work their way inside the cone, increasing the chances of it staying upright when knocked sideways. It's simple and effective!

Responsible design

The environment is front and centre of our project, which is why reducing the impact of these products on the planet was a key concern throughout their development. The design team studied the amount of material used in detail to ensure the best possible product and the right balance between the quantity of material and its strength. In doing away with packaging, for example, we have been able to cut CO² emissions of our product by 14%.
