Need help building a basketball area at home

I made mine from concrete 8.5 *8.5 then painted it with the concrete paint tinted in 2 different greens. Very cost effective way to do it and can be used for bikes or so many other uses. Its a real focal point in our yard and everyone gravitates towards it even if they dont play.
We also made it heavy duty so if we ever wanted to put a shed on top it it would be fine. We can also drive cars on it with no cracking etc.

I used a Spaulding setup that was about 1000 bucks 5 years ago, it has a 4 inch steel pole thats filled with concrete, fully adjustable from 7 to 10 ft, perspex backboard with true bounce and fully sprung ring.

Find and buy the ring setup first as you need to concrete in the sleeve for the pole.

My setup probably cost 4200 all done but that was 5 years ago. My 2 kids love it nearly as much as I do.
