CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application is a continuation-in-part of application Ser. No. 10/315,381, filed Dec. 10, 2002, which claims the benefit of provisional application No. 60/343,924, filed Jan. 2, 2002. FIELD [0002] This invention relates to apparatus for sports training and more particularly, to a soccer practice cage which is suitable for honing soccer skills through practice. BACKGROUND [0003] In recent years, soccer has become the world's most popular sport. In a soccer game, 11 players on each of two teams attempt to kick or hit a ball with their heads into the other team's goal, and the team that scores more goals wins the game. A goalkeeper, or "goalie", stands guard in front of the team's goal area in an attempt to prevent the other team from kicking the ball into the goal and scoring. [0004] Kicking, the most important skill in soccer, is used to put the ball into play, to "pass" the ball from one player to another, to "shoot" the ball at the goal, to propel the ball into a particular area of the field in order to achieve a desired field position, and to block a ball from entering a goal. A skilled soccer player can kick the ball accurately for short or long distances with either foot. Accordingly, those players who have acquired advanced kicking skills in the game of soccer enjoy a considerable competitive advantage over less skilled players. SUMMARY [0005] The present invention relates to a soccer practice cage including a cage frame having at least two frame goal openings; a cover having at least two cover goal openings communicating with the at least two frame goal openings, respectively, of the cage frame; and at least two goals carried by at least one of the cage frame and the cover and communicating with the at least two frame goal openings and the at least two cover goal openings, respectively.
