Product Overview

In short

The Gared 9718S Pro is a spring-assisted portable basketball backstop built for collegiate and professional play. It carries a 10' 8" regulation boom that attaches directly to the breakaway rim for maximum glass backboard stability, and the base is fully covered in vinyl padding that can be decorated for team and sponsor branding. It is made in the United States and ships at 3300 lbs.

✓ Authorized Gared Dealer — ships brand-new with full manufacturer warranty & support

The 9718S is the long-boom version of Gared's Pro portable backstop, with a 10' 8" regulation boom that pushes the base well clear of the baseline. That is the geometry collegiate and professional venues specify so players and camera positions are not crowded by the unit.

The boom attaches directly to the breakaway rim rather than loading the board, which is what gives the glass backboard its stability under game contact. The frame is steel with a powdercoat finish.

The base is fully covered in vinyl padding for player safety, and the pad surfaces can be decorated to promote team and sponsor marketing. The unit is made in the United States and ships at 3300 lbs.
