Jaypro Sports 656-AC-UG Gooseneck Basketball System with 72-Inch Acrylic Backboard

Outfitting a public park or schoolyard requires equipment that balances high-performance play with rugged durability. The Jaypro Sports 656-AC-UG Gooseneck Basketball System is engineered specifically for these high-traffic environments. At its core is a massive 5-9/16 inch diameter Schedule 40 steel upright, designed to be buried 48 inches into the ground for maximum stability. This heavy-duty foundation supports a 72-inch by 42-inch rectangular acrylic backboard, providing a professional-grade rebounding surface that stands up to the elements better than traditional materials.

Safety is a primary consideration in the design of this system. The gooseneck pole provides a 71-inch offset, creating a significant "Play Safe" area under the rim to prevent players from colliding with the post during aggressive drives or layups. To ensure the backboard remains rigid and level over years of use, the system includes two 1-5/16 inch diameter steel braces for added structural reinforcement. Finished in a standard galvanized coating with optional powder coat upgrades, this system resists corrosion and wear. Whether it is a local community center or a busy middle school playground, this 457-pound unit delivers a reliable, long-term solution for outdoor basketball.
