There many different types of basketball goals to select from, online and off. And one, if not several, of these available types may be the perfect choice for you. For example, the FT192 basketball goal is a very suitable basketball goal for hard play.

The FT192 is a breakaway basketball goal type which means that it is designed, engineered and constructed in such a way as to bend and flex under heavy loads. So it will not break under a heavy slam dunk or when performing other stunts, provided the goal is used in a proper manner.

It bends at the neck, joining the mounting hardware to the basketball hoop system. That means that force loads that would otherwise break a basketball hoop off a rigid neck will instead be transferred to the mounting hardware, saving the basketball goal. This is the same type of construction used on all professional basketball goals, including the NCAA and NBA which also means you will get a very professional and authentic looking basketball goal matching the basketball goals you see during televised games.

Why do I recommend this specific basketball hoop system? The FT192 features a positive lock mechanism, which is additional insurance that the basketball goal will be durable and will last a very long time. The continuous net locks of the FT192 attach the net firmly to the basketball hoop and will help ensure that the net does not tear off when the basketball goal is properly used. But this also ensures that the net can be easily detached for storage or transport.

This breakaway goal alsos fit all standard backboards, so mounting this basketball goal will not be a problem and will not require any unique or unusual hardware compared to other basketball goals. The powder coat finish that covers the FT192 matches the demanding requirements of the basketball goal’s overall design and construction, and will not only give the basketball goal a matching, professional and authentic look, but will ensure that the basketball goal maintains that professional, authentic look for many years, even under heavy use.

Of course, this system meets all NCAA and high school specifications, making the FT192 a suitable basketball goal for high school or even college competitive and official use whether it is used on the playground, for practice or during the game. It also comes with and anti-whip net and mounting hardware, giving you a complete package.

You should be able to find this model with a superior two year warranty, giving you peace of mind and confidence that this basketball goal will last and stand up to repeated, everyday competitive use. Still, the FT192 remains a lightweight basketball goal, being only marginally heavier than cheaply made models at 26 pounds shipping weight. This means that mounting the FT192 is an easy process that will not break your back.

A 5 inch by 4-5 inch mounting area also means that finding a place to mount your FT192 basketball goal will be an equally easy process. The FT192 remains a solid choice for a breakaway basketball hoop for the high school gym, playground or over your garage. Breakaway basketball goals are a great choice to challenge serious players, or to grow with aspiring ones.
