First Team Champ Adjustable In-Ground Basketball Goal
The First Team Champ adjustable in-ground basketball goal transforms your driveway or backyard into a regulation-quality court. Engineered with a 4" x 4" 11-gauge steel post in a one-piece design that eliminates wobble-prone joints and a 18" post-to-backboard extension, this system delivers the stability and rebound response that serious players demand.
The InstaJust height adjustment system lets you change rim height from 10' to 6' quickly and safely. The direct-bury post anchors 36" below grade for maximum stability. Choose from multiple backboard sizes and materials to match your playing preferences and budget.
Features
-
4" x 4" 11-Gauge Steel Post - One-piece construction eliminates joints that wobble, rust, and deteriorate over time, delivering stability that outlasts multi-piece designs
-
Direct-Mounted Super Strength Flex Goal - Connects directly to the support structure rather than the backboard, eliminating backboard stress and preventing breakage during aggressive play
-
InstaJust Height Adjustment - Quickly and safely adjust rim height from 10' to 6' to accommodate players of all ages and skill levels
-
18" Post-to-Backboard Extension - Positions the post safely away from the playing area, reducing collision risk during drives and layups
-
Multiple Backboard Options - Available in acrylic, tempered glass across multiple sizes, allowing you to match performance needs and budget
-
36" Burial Depth - Deep-set concrete anchoring provides the foundation rigidity needed to resist vibration and lateral force during play
-
Bolt-Down Baseplate Option - Order “BP” model units for optional bolt down baseplate on post, ideal for installations where direct burial is not possible
