Basketball rings and backboards, safety alert

Date published: 10th October 2005

This brochure provides information on installation and safe use of basketball rings and backboards.

Basketball rings installed on home exteriors may not be able to support the player's weight, making hanging or swinging on the ring extremely dangerous. Fatal and serious injuries result from falling debris such as bricks and guttering.
