What’s Included This ground mount basketball goal includes a glass backboard, pole, connection arms, single spring breakaway rim, height adjuster, ground anchors, and associated hardware. Glass Backboard The glass backboard that comes with the Collegiate Jam Basketball Goal measures 60”x42” and is available in glass or acrylic. Both of the backboards have a powder coated steel frame. Extruded aluminum wraps around the outside of the board to give it a sleek professional look. Pole This unit comes with a 5” square post with welded cap and bottom plate. The post is powder coated black for resistance to rust. The arms which connect to pole to the backboard are also powder coated black. Ground Anchors The ground anchors are comprised of four 5/8” diameter J bolts and #3 rebar. A disposable template is included to aid in proper positioning of the anchor bolts. Breakaway Rim The Varsity Jam Basketball Goal comes standard with a double spring breakaway rim in order to replicate the feel of a competition goal. The rim is powder coated orange and comes with an anti-whip nylon net. Height Adjuster This basketball goal features a heavy duty actuator which allows players to raise and lower the rim between 7’ and 10’. The handle of the actuator can easily be removed to prevent height adjustment. Optional Pads For added safety, pads are available for the backboard, pole, and base of the pole (to cover the anchor bolts). All pads are black and are sold separately. The backboard pad comes with self tapping screws which anchor to the aluminum frame. Screws holes are recessed into the backboard pad for added safety. The fitted wrap around pole pad covers the face and sides of the pole. Straps with hook & loop fasteners wrap around the back side of the pole to hold the pad securely in place. The base pad is a 4 sided pad designed to cover the steel base of the pole and the anchor bolts. Hook & loop fasteners secure the pad. Both the pole pad and the base pad are constructed with 2” thick closed cell polyurethane foam covered in 18oz UV resistant vinyl. Both of these pads are designed specifically for 6” square posts.
