Gol Koochik
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gol Koochik (گلکوچیک in Persian spoken language, translates as "small goal" or small net) is a variation of street football that has been popular in Iran. The goal is approximately 100 x 60 cm in size and the ball is light-weight which can look like a makeshift ball. Given the limited space and the high density of player in the small-sized field, supreme dribbling skills are required for success in the game and players behoove to learn to maneuver the ball more quickly than normal football fields.[1][2]
Pursuant to the effects of the Information Age, street football in general and Gol Koochik in particular have suffered from a weakened popularity over the past few years.
