Abstract

A basketball goal including a lower pole, an upper pole, a backboard and a rim. The lower pole extends from a base and extends with a lower pole hinge adjacent one end of the lower pole. The upper pole includes an upper pole hinge, the upper pole hinge configured to be coupled to the lower pole hinge with a pin to facilitate pivotably coupling the upper pole to the lower pole. The backboard is configured to be coupled to the upper pole, and the rim is configured to be coupled to the backboard. The pivotable coupling between the lower and upper poles is for assisting assembly of the basketball goal with an assembly system such that, upon assembling the basketball goal, the upper pole is fixated in an upright position with the lower pole. Also, a light pole may be assembled with a hinged coupling, similar to the basketball goal.
