First Team Champ Adjustable In-Ground Basketball Goal - Champ II
The Champ Basketball Goal offers adjustability at an affordable price!
The Champ's 4"x4" 11 ga. steel post is 50% heavier than any goal of its kind. Our one-piece post design eliminates wobbling, rusting joints common with sectional type posts.
Our Insta-Just height adjustment mechanism allows the Champ Goal to adjust from 10' to 7'6" in six-inch increments. To adjust, use a broom handle to release the Insta-Just height regulator.
A variety of backboards and rims are offered with the Champ so you can choose the Champ package that's right for you. For additional safety, pole padding and backboard padding can be added to any Champ package.
