Product Overview
The First Team Legend Supreme Basketball System features a robust construction centered around a 6” square 3/16” wall steel vertical pole, designed to be buried 48” in concrete and sealed with a watertight steel cap. A 45 degree, 6” square 3/16” wall steel extension arm provides a 66” extension from the pole to the backboard face. This arm is securely attached to the pole by two ½” thick steel plates and six 5/8” high strength bolts, with all steel pole components welded using maximum penetration, continuous weld, MIG procedure and finished with a polyester powder-coated black coating.
The system includes a 42”x 72” rectangular 1/2” thick clear acrylic backboard framed in competition grade anodized aluminum, featuring a bright white 2” border and official size shooter’s square screen-printed on the backside. A flexible, institutional quality rim with structural components of no less than 3/16” steel, a 5/8” diameter high strength steel ring, and an orange powdercoated finish is included. The rim and backboard are directly mounted to the pole with four high strength steel bolts, transferring weight suspended from the rim directly to the pole structure, and the backboard is additionally mounted at four top and bottom points to prevent rust streaks. The entire system weighs approximately 470# and is covered by a Lifetime Unconditional Warranty on the pole, backboard, and standard rim.
