This method worked for me. I was hoping to find another method that didn't require me breaking down the backboard, removing from the base and etc, but I needed to get it done. I throw it down several times and slowly started seeing it loosen up by the WD40 and rust I saw coming out. It was 103 when I did it, so I wore gloves. Waited for it to cool down to put my basketball hoop together, but this saved me a lot of headaches from attempting something that would have been much harder and time consuming.

I have 19 players and six courts. will this work for that?
@MatherPEАй бұрын
It’s a lot of games for a round robin. But it will work if you slot the next available court. Alternatively you could have pools of 6 teams..one of 7. Two courts per pool..and the timings should work out. The only awkward pool is the 7 but that will be fixed with a bye for one player. Games essentially remain the same…just an extra round of games

I was so excited to see it come apart for you that I didn’t watch the whole video. I just ran out in 111 degree heat try on my neighbor’s lawn. Didn’t work at all after 6 drops. Came back in the house defeated and sweaty. Then sat down and you tell me “in all honesty”😂😅 I followed the assembly instructions to “bang” the poles 6-7 times to seat it. These suckers are stuck stuck😅 They’re sending me replacement parts on Monday, but I’ll still go back out when it cools off outside and actually tell my neighbor what I’m doing so he doesn’t think I’m trying to destroy his lawn bcuz I think I’ll need to drop it at least 40 times.😩
@MatherPEАй бұрын
I tried everything under the sun before I tried the way in the video. Can’t say it will work for every situation..but enough drops and it started to shift. Hope it works for you eventually

Painter’s tape is pretty easy to lay down on a curve. It can be stretched a little and you only really need to pay attention to the inside lines where you will be painting.
