5 Reasons to Choose a Goalrilla Basketball Hoop for Family Fun

Thinking about adding something fun and functional to your backyard? A basketball hoop might just be the slam dunk you didn’t know your family needed. Whether your kids are just learning the basics or your teens are perfecting their free throws, a high-quality outdoor basketball system delivers year-round benefits—and major fun.

At Backyard Fun Zone, we’re proud to be West Michigan’s Platinum Goalrilla Dealer, offering a full lineup of premium basketball hoops for sale. Here’s why a hoop should be your next backyard investment.

1. Encourages Outdoor Play & Exercise

Let’s be real—getting kids off their screens isn’t always easy. But install a basketball hoop in your driveway or backyard, and suddenly they’ve got a reason to head outside. From casual games of HORSE to shooting hoops solo, it’s an easy way to stay active without it feeling like “exercise.”

Bonus: It’s not just for kids. Adults love it too. (Yes, dad, we see you trying to relive your glory days.)

2. Grows with Your Family

When you choose a Goalrilla basketball hoop, you’re getting a system that can grow with your players. Most of their hoops feature adjustable heights—from 7.5 feet up to regulation 10 feet—so little ones can start early and build confidence as they grow stronger and taller. There is even a Jr Hoop which can mount on the pole for even those tiny ones who don’t want to be left out of the action!

No need to replace the hoop every few years. Just raise the height and keep playing.

3. Built to Handle Michigan Weather

Here in West Michigan, we know the weather can be… let’s just say “moody.” That’s why durability matters. Goalrilla hoops are made with powder-coated steel, rust-resistant hardware, and tempered glass or acrylic backboards built to handle snow, wind, sun, and all four seasons (sometimes in one week).

Translation: This hoop isn’t going anywhere—unless you move and want to take it with you. (Yes, they’re removable!)

4. Adds Value to Your Home (and Your Routine)

A backyard basketball hoop isn’t just a toy—it’s a lifestyle upgrade. It creates a built-in reason to get outside, bond as a family, or challenge your neighbors to a friendly game. It also boosts your home’s appeal if you ever decide to sell—especially in kid-friendly neighborhoods.

And let’s be honest: it’s way more exciting than a birdbath or another lawn gnome.

5. Professional Installation & Local Support

At Backyard Fun Zone, we don’t just sell basketball hoops—we install them too. Our experienced team handles everything from delivery to digging the hole to setting the hoop at the perfect level. We even help you choose the right model based on your yard, player age, and budget.

Plus, as a Platinum Goalrilla Dealer, we offer full access to replacement parts, warranty service, and you can visit us in person at our showroom in Cedar Springs, MI.
