First Team HydroSport Basketball Hoop

Yes. The HydroSport features a 4-inch square stainless steel post with a specialized zinc undercoating, specifically engineered to resist rust and corrosion in aquatic environments.

While it is not a quick-adjust system, you can change the height by loosening the U-bolts on the extension arm. This allows you to slide the arm up or down the post to accommodate different players or water depths, though it requires tools and is not intended for frequent, on-the-fly adjustments.

The backboard is direct-mounted to the post, which significantly increases stability and helps prevent breakage if someone hangs on the rim. However, like all basketball equipment, we recommend avoiding hanging on the rim to ensure the longevity of the system.

This unit uses a bolt-down anchor design, which means you will need to install an anchor into your pool deck. It is a permanent installation that provides superior stability compared to weighted portable bases.

The extension arm provides 24 inches of clearance from the post. This distance is generally sufficient to keep the post safely away from the pool edge while allowing players enough room to maneuver in the water.
