The game includes two flexible plastic goals (5 1/4" wide, 2 1/4" deep at bottom, 5/8" deep at top, and 2 7/8" tall), with mesh all around plus a small rectangular hole in the rear of each goal.

Two inflexible plastic goalies are provided, one with a blue (the "HOME TEAM") body and one red (the "AWAY TEAM") except for a white face and thighs. Each of the goalie bodies measures 2 1/8" tall, 1 1/2" wide at maximum, and 3/8" deep at maximum. A thin metal rod is attached to the middle of the back of each goalie, with an approximately 105 degree bend after about 7/8" of an inch and then a straight metal wire for 4 1/2", after which a plastic endpiece is attached that measures 3/8" long and 3/8" round at the end.

The game includes four flexible white plastic flagpoles (1 3/4" tall, 5/8" round base, 3/4" wide triangular flag).

One copy of this game includes the following injection-molded plastic squidgers and winks with burrs:

Squidgers (1"): 2 gray.

Winks (5/8"): 11 red, 11 light blue, and 2 white (which serve as the balls in the game).
