An obstacle device for use on a playing field is formed from an elongate support member. A frame member in the form of a resilient, flexible hoop is coupled to the support member. The frame member has an expanded configuration that defines an expanded frame area. The frame member is resiliently deformable to a collapsed configuration that defines a collapsed frame area that is less than the expanded frame area. A layer of fabric material is attached to the frame member so that the fabric material is spread by the frame when the frame is in the expanded configuration.
