Basketball poles used in our inground and portable systems are designed to be permanently secured once assembled. This ensures maximum safety, stability, and performance during use. As a result, once the poles are connected, they cannot be taken apart without causing damage or compromising the structure. If you believe you’ve made a mistake during assembly, or if you're unsure about any part of the setup process, we strongly recommend reaching out to our customer service team before taking any further steps. Our team can provide guidance, troubleshooting tips, or advice to help resolve the issue. Please contact us via email with details of your situation, and we’ll do our best to assist you as quickly as possible.
