First Team HydroSport In-Ground Poolside Basketball Hoop

First Team HydroSport In-Ground Poolside Basketball Hoop

The HydroSport Fixed Height Swimming Pool Goal offers a professional look for your poolside at an affordable price!

The HydroSport's black powder coated 4"x4" stainless steel post is designed with a bolt down anchor system silmilar to our upper end driveway basketball systems.  The unit is secured to the deck using four stainless steel anchor bolts provided with unit.  An ABS plastic anchor cover is also included.  The HyrdoSport's carbon steel extension arm is also powder coated black and attaches to the post via U-Bolts.

Though the HydroSport is considered a "Fixed-Height" goal, the U-bolts can be loosened allowing the arm to be re-attached at any given height along the post.  A variety of basketball backboards are available on the HydroSport.  Pick the package that is right for your pool.  For additional safety, backboard padding is available for all HydroSport Fixed Height Swimming Pool Goal packages.

Each HydroSport basketball system is covered by First Team's Lifetime Limited Warranty.
