ABSTRACT:
A poolside basketball goal for in-ground swimming pools with a backboard and hoop supported by a support having an extended horizontal component. A support is anchored in the ground by an anchor which is located more than 3 feet away from the in-ground pool and the extended horizontal component of the support is greater than 3 feet and is sufficiently long to laterally traverse the sidewalk to suspend the hoop over the pool. The support is moveable with respect to the anchor and may be pivoted away from the swimming pool so that the sidewalk around the swimming pool is free from impedance of pedestrian traffic by the horizontal component of the support. Locking mechanisms, such as set screws, allow for vertical telescopic adjustment as well as for locking the support pool in a selected angular position. The anchor includes radial members to resist rotation of the anchor embedded in concrete.
