Product Overview
The Hoopla system is designed for recreational, league and tournament netball where a permanent in-ground post is not practical. The upright is 2.5" [63.5 mm] O.D. galvanized steel finished in white powder coat, and it slots snugly into a triangular welded steel base weighing 50 lb [22.7 kg] and powder coated black. That combination gives enough mass for competitive play while keeping the unit portable.
The goal is a 15N netball ring with a 15" [380 mm] diameter opening formed from 0.625" [16.0 mm] diameter stock and powder coated orange. Height is set by bolting the post into pre-drilled holes at one of three playing heights: 8'-2 3/8" [2.50 m], 9'-1/4" [2.75 m] and the full 10'-0" [3.05 m] play height, covering junior through senior netball.
For added protection, Gared offers model 8440 full height padding, a 1" [25 mm] thick pad with Velcro attachment, which is not included with the system. The 8412 is made in the US and ships by truck at 187 lbs.
