5 Reasons In Ground Basketball Hoops Are Your Best Choice

Have you been thinking about getting a basketball hoop installed? It really is a great investment for the modern family?it promotes a healthy, active habit for your children, encourages more constructive pastimes, and sets a foundation for social interaction (with you and with their friends). But what type of hoop should you get?portable, in ground, or combination? Well, here are 5 reasons I suggest going with the in ground basketballs hoops.

1. Stability

First off, it probably comes as no surprise that in ground basketball hoops are much more stable than other options. While a combination system can be pretty sturdy when mounted properly, it does kind of depend on the integrity of the home it is attached to, which may not always be apparent.

Not to mention that if it proves unable to support the weight of some growing teens hanging off the rim, it may be your home that suffers the most damage. The in ground systems are, well, in ground, and they are extremely rigid and sturdy in their upright position.

2. Durability

Similarly, the in ground systems stand the test of time. Because they are supported by a strong pole, they can be made of the heaviest, strongest materials. Thick glass backboards and 6-8 inch poles?you can be sure it will last for years to come. 3. Real Estate Value

Even when a ground sleeve is required, these types of hoops are just more permanent, and as is often true with real estate, value favors the permanent nature of a fixture. You may have never thought of a basketball hoop as having a direct impact on the value of a home, but value in this market is always based on the expected perception of potential buyers.

Think about how you would feel if you looked at two homes that were exactly similar but one had one of these permanent basketball hoops. Which would you favor? Now imagine one had the in ground hoop and one had a backboard hanging off the garage. Which would you pay more for?or which you would you choose given a similar price?

4. Authenticity

Especially if you have a decent court to go with the basketball goal, the in ground model has more authenticity. You can order a pro height goal if that's what you like, and this is extremely hard to achieve when mounting a combination system by yourself.

So toss a good section of basketball court with an authentic-sized goal and what happens? That's right?the kids get fired up a lot more and play more hoops, meaning more physical activity and interaction with their friends. And chances are very high that if you are an athlete you'll be out there doing the same with your pals as well.

5. Adjustable

Finally, a lot of high-quality in ground basketball hoops are adjustable now. That means that you can lower or raise the height depending on who is out there playing ball the most. And as your children grow, you can adjust it to accommodate their needs.
