First Team FT280 Gymnasium Fiberglass Basketball Backboard

FT280 Gymnasium Fiberglass Basketball Backboard: Durable Performance for Any Court

The FT280 Gymnasium Fiberglass Basketball Backboard delivers consistent play and lasting durability, making it an excellent choice for both indoor and outdoor basketball courts. Measuring an official 42" x 72", this backboard is engineered with a robust fiberglass composite construction, featuring front and back laminates surrounding a solid inner core of high-strength honeycomb polyethylene. This design ensures reliable rebound characteristics and exceptional resistance to impact, maintaining its integrity through countless games and practices. Its waterproof build means it stands up to the elements without compromise, offering versatile installation options for school gyms, community centers, or outdoor facilities.

Attention to detail is evident in the FT280's design. The official orange border and shooter's square are molded directly into the gel-coat finish, preventing fading or peeling over time, even with heavy use and exposure. Molded inserts at all attachment points provide secure mounting for your rim and support structure, contributing to the backboard's overall stability and longevity. Backed by a 10-year limited warranty, this American-made backboard represents a smart investment for any facility seeking a high-quality, dependable basketball solution built to withstand the demands of competitive play.
