Description
Overview
The GL Adjustable BB Tower – Primary is built by Gym Leader for schools where a full heavy-duty senior tower is more than the playground needs. It carries a primary-sized backboard on a 600 mm overhang from the post, and the backboard moves between regulation height and Kiwi height so the same unit works for junior and senior classes.
All steel work is hot-dip galvanised for an outdoor life on a school court, and the tower comes with a Samson non-sprung hoop and a basketball net fitted. It is part of our outdoor systems range and is manufactured after you order, with freight quoted to your site.
Key benefits
- Grows with your students because the backboard adjusts from Kiwi height to regulation height.
- Suits a school court without the bulk of a senior unit, being built for primary and intermediate use.
- Resists rust outdoors thanks to hot-dip galvanised steel work.
- Ready to play on arrival with a Samson non-sprung hoop and net included.
- Keeps players clear of the post with a 600 mm backboard overhang.
Who it's for
Primary and intermediate schools fitting out a playground or outdoor court, where Year 1 classes and Year 8 teams share the same hoop. The adjustable height means you are not choosing between a low ring for the juniors and a regulation ring for the seniors.
If you want a heavier backboard build with the same adjustment, compare the GL Adjustable BB Tower – Intermediate. Secondary schools and clubs running competitive games should look at the senior outdoor towers instead.
Sizing guide
The site's hoop height guide gives 2.4 m for children aged 1 to 4 years and 3.05 m (regulation) for ages 5 and up. This tower spans regulation and Kiwi height settings; ask our team for the exact Kiwi height in metres for your age group.
Care, safety and set-up
Some assembly is required on site; enquire with our team for details before the tower arrives. This is a made-to-order item manufactured after you order, and being a large item it is freight-quoted rather than shipped at a flat rate. Schools can request a quote for the tower and installation questions, and funding packages are available.
