FAQs
Does this set include a basketball?
No, the kit includes the backboard, hoop, net, and mounting screws, but a basketball is not included.
Can this be mounted on a tree?
While it can be mounted to a flat wooden board attached to a tree, it is designed for solid, flat walls and mounting on irregular surfaces like tree bark is not recommended.
What tools are needed for installation?
You will need a drill, a screwdriver (usually Phillips head), a level to ensure the board is straight, and a wrench for the mounting bolts.
Is the backboard weather resistant?
Yes, the polycarbonate and metal materials are suitable for outdoor use, though covering it during extreme winter months can extend its lifespan.
What are the exact dimensions?
The backboard measures 112cm in height and 72cm in width.
Troubleshooting
Backboard vibrates excessively during shots
Check that all mounting screws are fully tightened and ensure the backboard is flush against the wall surface.
Net becomes frayed or detached
The included nylon net is a replaceable consumable item; if it shows excessive wear, it can be replaced with any standard-sized basketball net.
Hoop feels loose after heavy use
Re-tighten the mounting bolts connecting the hoop to the backboard frame to eliminate any play in the structure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires a drill and basic tools to secure the backboard to your chosen vertical surface. Ensure the wall is flush to prevent the board from vibrating or cracking during play. Once mounted, the system is low-maintenance, though you should periodically check the mounting screws for signs of loosening due to vibration. During extreme weather conditions, or if the unit is installed in a high-wind area, consider inspecting the hoop connection points. To clean, use a soft cloth and mild soap to wipe down the polycarbonate surface, avoiding harsh abrasive cleaners that could cloud the clear material.
