Goalsetter Elite Plus

The awning crank is a manual, handle-operated system that allows you to smoothly raise or lower the rim. It is designed for ease of use, letting you adjust the hoop anywhere from 7 to 10 feet to accommodate players of different ages and skill levels.

Yes, the tempered glass is specifically designed for outdoor environments. It offers a professional-grade ball response and is built to withstand weather exposure, though it is generally more rigid and prone to shattering upon direct impact than acrylic, so it is best suited for standard basketball play rather than aggressive dunking.

Yes, the Goalsetter Elite Plus features a hinged ground-anchor system. While it is an in-ground unit, the anchor design allows you to unbolt the pole and move the entire system to a new location if you move homes, provided you install a new anchor kit at the new site.

The one-piece pole design eliminates the weak points often found in multi-piece or telescoping poles. This construction provides superior rigidity and stability, reducing vibration and 'shake' during play, which is essential for a consistent, professional feel.

The system has a 30-inch overhang, which is the distance from the pole to the backboard. You will need enough clearance in your driveway or court area to accommodate this, plus enough space for players to move safely around the perimeter of the hoop.

The system requires assembly and in-ground installation, which involves digging a hole and pouring concrete for the anchor. While it is manageable for a handy homeowner with the right tools and a helper, many choose to hire a professional installer to ensure the anchor is perfectly level and secure.
