The First Team FT196 Breakaway Rim Basketball Hoop provides breakaway, positive lock action and is supported by an anti-whip net to ensure durability and performance. Fits all standard backboards, includes mounting hardware, and meets NCAA and high school specs. It makes it suitable for competitive play, as well as longevity, with an 8-years warranty.
Durable Design
Intended purpose of the hoop: Finally, being able to withstand the intensity of play. This hoop has a powder coat finish that resists damaging weathering, rust, and scratches, suitable for outdoor and indoor courts alike. All of this is packed in a rugged build that will both survive tough playing conditions and will perform when you play hard.
Breakaway Action
With its breakaway action, where a rim flexes under pressure, this was one of the defining features of the FT196 hoop. Whether a thunderous dunk or an aggressive shot, the rim safely releases to eliminate any damage to the hoop or backboard. Less restricted than metals, this flexibility prevents injury and sustains performance for a long time.
Positive Lock Mechanism
Some great extra features include a positive lock with a three-part arm system to allow for extra stability when in use. That means once you get the rim in, the lock holds it tight so it can't move away from the rim or become loosened over time. Making this one of those systems that locks the hoop in place during dead time at the game for intense, high-impact moments.
Universal Compatibility
The FT196 accommodates all standard backboards; it can be installed in minutes. For systems already in place or new installations, this hoop is mountable to nearly any backboard type. Its universal compatibility makes it a fantastic fit for everything from court recreational setups to high school arenas.
Anti-Whip Net
The hoop comes with an anti-whip net that lessens the whip effect after a basket is made. This keeps the net secure during play and gives a sleek, clean look. The net is strong enough for repeat use while also not being too showy making the game not look messy.
Warranty and Quality
First Team backs the FT196 quality with an 8-year superior warranty. This warranty is testament to the manufacturer's faith in the hoop's robustness and longevity. That’s a great option for institutions like colleges and high schools that want to rest assured that the hoop will operate at a high level for years to come.
Ideal for Competitive Play
The FT196 is perfect for competitive play, constructed to meet NCAA & High School specs. Suitable for use in your gymnasium or on an outdoor court, this hoop meets game-standard specifications. The Pro controller is great both for casual play and serious competition because of its professional-grade features.
