Jaypro 996-ALP-UB Gooseneck Basketball System with Perforated Aluminum Backboard

Outfitting a public park or schoolyard requires equipment that can withstand both the elements and high-intensity play. The Jaypro 996-ALP-UB Gooseneck Basketball System is engineered specifically for these demanding outdoor environments. At its core is a heavy-duty 4-1/2 inch Schedule 40 steel upright, which provides a rigid foundation for consistent performance. The gooseneck design features a generous 48-inch offset, creating a "Play Safe" area that keeps athletes away from the main pole during aggressive drives to the basket. This extension is vital for preventing collisions and ensuring a safer environment for competitive games.

The system is equipped with a 72-inch by 42-inch rectangular perforated aluminum backboard. This design choice is critical for outdoor settings, as the perforations allow wind to pass through, reducing the physical load on the structure during storms while maintaining a true rebound. For added stability, two 1-5/16 inch diameter steel braces support the board. To handle the physical nature of playground games, the unit includes a UBG-500F Playground Breakaway Goal, which flexes under pressure to protect both the player and the backboard. With an in-ground mounting depth of 48 inches and a galvanized finish, this system is built for long-term reliability in any community space.
