A rim section is pivotally connected to the anchor section and extends outwardly therefrom. A mechanism for locking the anchor section with the housing section after the anchor section has been positioned therein is also included. The assembly further includes a mechanism for resiliently opposing downwardly forces exerted on the rim section such that a player can offset the rim section from the horizontal plane without permanently detaching the rim section from the anchor section. The housing section includes a rear wall provided with a plurality of holes for receiving a plurality of fastening members therethrough respectively. A protruding support compartment is integral with the rear wall and has a plurality of sidewalls and a front wall integrally connected for defining a cavity therebetween.
