Best Answer

The area within which a goalkeeper may usually legally handle the ball is called the penalty area, and measures 44 yards across and 18 yards deep. The goalkeeper may leave this area, but is treated like any other player while outside of the penalty area.

It depends on your height.

Measure the distance from the ground to your knee, and then add about 7 to 8 inches.

My measurement is 28 inches, so i would add 7 or 8 in. and that comes out to be around 35 or 36 in.

Hope it Helps!

It always depends on the feild. If it is a U-6 feild the goal box is going to be much smaller than a U-16 feilds goal box.
