First Team Powerhouse 6 In-Ground Adjustable Basketball Hoop

Model Type

First Team Powerhouse 6 In-Ground Adjustable Basketball Hoop

The First Team PowerHouse 6 In-Ground Adjustable Basketball Goal is designed with performance, aesthetic appeal, and economy. The PowerHouse 6 delivers a genuine First Team permanent in-ground installation with a 6" x 6" post, EZ-Crank height adjustment, and a tempered glass backboard in two sizes, at the most accessible price in the First Team in-ground adjustable range.

Performance, Aesthetics, and Economy in One Package

First Team built the PowerHouse series around three design principles: performance, aesthetic appeal, and economy. The PowerHouse 6 delivers all three. The one-piece 6" x 6" vertical steel post provides the stability and rigidity that a permanent bolt-down installation demands. The tempered glass backboard delivers a premium playing experience that acrylic cannot match. And the overall package is priced to make a serious, permanent First Team in-ground goal achievable for home courts and recreational facilities that want quality without the cost of the Force, Titan, or Stainless Olympian.

Clearspan Backboard Mount

The PowerHouse 6 features a unique Clearspan backboard mount that eliminates any visual obstructions behind the glass. On goals with conventional backboard mounting hardware, structural bracing crosses behind the glass and interrupts the sight line through the backboard. The Clearspan design removes that obstruction entirely, delivering a clean, uninterrupted view through the glass from any angle. For players who rely on glass clarity for bank shots and spatial reference during play, this is a meaningful real-world advantage.

Tempered Glass Backboards Only

Unlike the Force, Titan, and Stainless Olympian which offer acrylic, steel, and aluminum backboard options, the PowerHouse 6 is a glass-only lineup. Both configurations use tempered glass backboards. This reflects First Team's design intent for the PowerHouse series: to deliver the premium playing experience of tempered glass at the most accessible permanent in-ground price in the lineup. If you want a First Team in-ground adjustable goal with an acrylic, steel, or aluminum backboard option, the Force is the right choice.

EZ-Crank Infinite Height Adjustment

The PowerHouse 6 uses First Team's EZ-Crank infinite height adjustment system for smooth, reliable rim height changes across the full adjustment range. Turn the crank to set the rim at any height needed for your players quickly and without tools. For families and programs running players of different ages on the same permanent court, fast and accurate height adjustment is a simple daily operation.

Bolt-Down Anchor Base

The PowerHouse 6 is built around First Team's bolt-down anchor base, designed specifically for ease of assembly and relocation. The bolt-down system requires a concrete anchor installation before assembly, and the goal bolts securely into that anchor once in place. While this is a permanent installation system, the bolt-down design means the goal can be unbolted and relocated to a new anchor if your court ever changes. This is not a portable system, but the bolt-down design provides more flexibility than a traditional poured-in-place post installation.

Installation note: The PowerHouse 6 requires a permanent concrete anchor and bolt-down installation. Professional installation is strongly recommended. 

Breakaway Goal Included

Every PowerHouse 6 ships with a breakaway goal as standard. The breakaway mechanism absorbs rim impact during dunks and hard plays, protecting both the rim and the backboard across years of heavy use.

Choose Your Type

The PowerHouse 6 is available in two configurations. Both share the same one-piece 6" x 6" post, Clearspan backboard mount, EZ-Crank adjustment, breakaway goal, bolt-down anchor base, and Lifetime Superior Warranty. The only difference is backboard size.

PowerHouse 660

42" x 60" Tempered Glass

A 42" x 60" tempered glass backboard with the Clearspan mount and full PowerHouse 6 platform. The most accessible price in the PowerHouse 6 lineup. Best for home courts and programs where premium glass performance is the priority at the lowest available entry price in the First Team in-ground adjustable range.

PowerHouse 672

42" x 72" Tempered Glass

Steps up to a full regulation-size 42" x 72" tempered glass backboard for a significantly larger playing surface and the closest playing experience to a regulation glass backboard available in the PowerHouse 6 lineup. Best for players who want the full regulation glass experience on a permanent home court.

Which size is right for your court? For players who want the full regulation glass experience on a permanent home court, the 672 is the right long-term investment. For courts where space is a consideration or a smaller backboard size is preferred, the 660 delivers the same premium PowerHouse 6 performance at a lower price. Our team is happy to help — contact us directly for a recommendation.

Optional Upgrades

The PowerHouse 6 is available with two padding add-ons worth considering at the time of purchase. For a permanent bolt-down installation, adding padding after the system is in place is significantly more difficult than ordering upfront.

  • Bolt-on TuffGuard backboard padding available in several colors, provides player protection around the backboard edges and is strongly recommended for youth programs and any facility where player contact with the backboard is a concern
  • All-weather Velcro wrap-around post padding adds a layer of safety around the 6" x 6" post for facilities where player contact with the post is a concern. The Velcro wrap-around design makes installation and removal straightforward without tools.
Padding recommendation: For permanent court installations we strongly recommend ordering padding at the time of purchase. Backboard and post padding protect both your players and your investment, and are far easier to install during initial setup than after the system is bolted into the ground.

Lifetime Superior Warranty

The PowerHouse 6 carries First Team's Lifetime Superior Warranty, the highest level of warranty coverage First Team offers across all of their in-ground adjustable systems. For a permanent bolt-down court installation, this warranty provides long-term assurance that your investment is protected for the life of the system.
