I have three grandsons, ages 3, 7, and 8, that like to play in the front yard at my house. Our basketball goal is inground on the side of the driveway, and we live on a busy street. I am forever having to retrieve the ball from street. I'm afraid that one of these times, I'm not going to be watching, and the 3-year old is going to go after the ball and get hit by a car.
I saw an opportunity to review the 20ft. Rolbak Basketball Guard net, and thought this could be the perfect solution to my problem, for the safety of my grandsons, and to save me from running after the ball all the time. I'm getting too old to keep chasing the balls.
The guard net arrived quickly and was well-packaged. We laid it out to make sure all the parts were there. After reading the inclosed, easy-to-follow instructions, we needed a screwdriver (not included) to assemble everything.
Once the posts were put together, they slid into the sleeve on the net. I suggest you figure out where you are going to put the net up at BEFORE doing this.
When you are ready to set the net up, take a hammer and hammer the stakes into the ground (if your ground is soft, you may be able to push the stakes in by hand). Stand the net up, place the poles on the stakes, thread the ropes through the grommets, and the net is ready to use.
The Rolbak net is 30ft. long and 5ft. high, and it has caught lots of runaway balls, and saved my legs some miles. I enjoy playing with my grandkids so much more now. My 3-year old grandson likes to play kickball with the net. I'm sure this net could be used for soccer, kickball, football, or other games, as well as basketball.
Once taken apart, the net comes with a carry-all, for easy transport or for putting away for the winter. This net will be going with us on vacation. I'm glad I purchased the Rolbak net.
