First Team RetroFit36 Backboard Packages - RetroFit36 III

First Team RetroFit36 backboard packages are a perfect, hassle free choice for replacing old, worn out backboards on existing basketball posts.
Each RetroFit36 backboard package includes backboard, rim and easy-mount RetroFit36 bracket.  The RetroFit36 bracket is built with two vertical slots on the back side of the bracket.  These slots are positioned 5" apart horizontally.  Because the slots are 5" apart, it is recommended that the attachement plate at the end of the existing basketball post be at least 6"x6" in size.  NOTE:  Four holes may need to be drilled into the mounting plate on the neck of the post to match the 5" slot dimension.  Once attached, the vertical slots in the RetroFit36 bracket will allow the backboard and rim to be fine tuned so perfect 10' rim height can be reached.

The RetroFit36 is available with a variety of backboard and rim options.  Check below for package options.  For additional safety, backboard padding is available in a variety of colors for all RetroFit36 packages.  First Team also offers a wide range of post pads to protect players from running into the basketball post.

Why tear out a perfectly good basketball post just because the backboard is worn out?  Refurbish it with First Team RetroFit36 basketball backboard combos and get back in the game!
