The project was carried out in collaboration with goalkeeping market leaders OBO. Evaluation on my final concept ideas was undertaken by the International coaches at Spartan International. This project will be on display at the Product Designers Market and New Designers. I have just come to an arrangement with OBO to bring these ideas to market in July 2009! Please give me your comments on the ideas.
