Everybody loves basketball, or most people anyway. Most of our kids have their heroes from their favorite basketball team and many aspire to being a pro basketball player one day. So what do they need most in life. All kids need a basketball ring in their yard so they can practice all day long. When one or two kids get together they compete with each other to dribble and shoot and they generally are having fun and getting some valuable fresh air. Much better than sitting in front of the TV or that video game getting square eyes. We all know that gaining weight prematurely is becoming a major problem for our kids so getting them a basketball ring for the backyard is probably one of the most important purchases you can make for them. Kids of all ages love to throw hoops and it doesn’t matter if they are still pre-school age or a mature teen, they all love it.

Basketball courts are big business in the Philippines where the kids just love to play. The kids from the Philippines love to copy anything from the US so they love their basketball. It is considered so important to provide some sort of sports outlet for kids that the local politicians all make sure they get the funds to build courts all over their local areas. They are plastered with their name of course but that is all promotion I suppose. They always have a roof in the Philippines so the kids can still play in the heat of the day.

One major problem with backyard basketball rings has always been the little kids. They all want to throw hoops too but the normal ring is much too high for them. Then of course if you have kids of different ages then a short ring is going to be no good to them and of course if Dad wants to have a game with the neighbors he is going to want the full size setup. However, some companies have solved that problem and designed a portable basketball ring. This can be easily wheeled out to wherever you want it and is very stable with the base being filled with sand or water. They have made the pole fully adjustable with a simple click up or down movement so that it can be adjusted to suit any age kid. The whole thing is completed with a full size backboard.
