FAQs
What is the maximum height of the netball post?
The post features 3 adjustable heights, designed to meet official regulations. Specific maximum height details can be found in the product manual.
Can this post be used for official matches?
Yes, the post adheres to official height and hoop regulations, making it suitable for practice and training that mimics competition play.
How much sand or water should I use to fill the base?
Fill the base until it is sufficiently heavy to provide stability for the post. For most conditions, filling it to capacity is recommended. Always ensure the plug is securely fastened.
Is assembly required?
Yes, some assembly is required. All necessary parts and instructions are typically included.
What are the dimensions of the hoop?
The hoop is designed to meet official netball regulations.
Can the post be left outside permanently?
While durable, it is recommended to store the post in a dry place when not in use for extended periods to maintain its condition and prevent damage from weather elements.
How heavy is the post when the base is filled?
The weight will vary depending on whether sand or water is used and the volume filled. Sand is generally heavier than water, providing greater stability.
Troubleshooting
Post is unstable or wobbly.
Ensure the base is adequately filled with sand or water. Check that the filling material is compacted and that the base seal is secure. For very strong play, consider adding extra weight to the base.
Wheels are difficult to move.
Check for any obstructions around the wheels. If the base is filled, the post will be heavy; tilt slightly or empty some water if significant resistance is met.
Height adjustment is stiff.
Ensure the locking mechanism is fully disengaged before attempting to adjust the height. Clean any debris from the adjustment slots. Lubrication may be applied sparingly if needed.
Hoop or net is loose.
Check the bolts or screws securing the hoop to the post and tighten as necessary. Ensure the net is properly attached to the hoop.
