Jaypro Sports 656-PERF-UG Gooseneck Basketball System with 72-Inch Perforated Steel Backboard

Equipping a public park or schoolyard requires hardware that can withstand both the elements and intense daily use. The Jaypro Sports 656-PERF-UG Gooseneck Basketball System is engineered specifically for these high-traffic outdoor environments. At its core is a massive 5-9/16 inch diameter Schedule 40 steel gooseneck pole, which provides the structural integrity needed for aggressive recreational play. This system features a significant 6-foot offset, positioning the backboard well away from the upright to create a "Play Safe" area. This design choice significantly reduces the risk of player-to-post collisions during layups or fast-paced drives to the basket.

The 72-inch by 42-inch rectangular backboard is constructed from perforated steel, allowing wind to pass through the surface easily. This reduces the wind load on the mounting system during storms and ensures the unit remains stable over time. For added rigidity, the backboard is supported by two 1-5/16 inch diameter steel braces. The system includes the heavy-duty UBG-500 Playground Goal, designed to handle the rigors of outdoor competition. Installation is permanent and secure, with the unit burying 48 inches directly into the ground. Finished in a standard galvanized coating with optional powder coat upgrades, this system is built to resist rust and maintain its professional appearance for years.
