The First Team OmniJam Portable Basketball System delivers genuine First Team build quality, stability, and performance for home courts, primary schools, recreation facilities, and community programs that want a serious, durable portable at an accessible price. Built in the USA with the same one-piece steel post and heavy poly base found across the First Team Omni lineup, the OmniJam outperforms any retail portable in its class.
The OmniJam is engineered to a performance standard, not a retail price point. A one-piece 4" square 11-gauge steel post eliminates the wobble and instability that plague sectional posts on consumer-grade portables. The FT3003 Omni Base Tank holds up to 500 lbs of sand ballast for a stable, heavy footing that stays put during aggressive play. The proprietary FT1300 Jam Arm System and FT186 Heavy Duty Flex Goal round out a system that is built to last years of daily use on driveways, outdoor courts, and gymnasium floors alike.
The OmniJam uses a hand crank located on the back of the post for smooth, infinite height adjustment. Simply turn the crank to raise or lower the rim to the exact height you need. No tools required, no broom handle needed, no ladder necessary. The hand crank mechanism is straightforward to operate for any user and reliable over years of daily adjustments. For programs that need fast, simple height changes between youth and adult play, this is exactly the right mechanism.
The OmniJam is rated for both indoor and outdoor use. The weather-resistant poly base handles year-round outdoor conditions on driveways and concrete surfaces without issue, while the system is equally at home on indoor gymnasium and recreation center floors. Non-marking base options protect your indoor floor surfaces during repositioning.
OmniJam is available in six distinct backboard configurations across acrylic, clear tempered glass, and smoked tempered glass. Every configuration shares the same OmniJam platform, hand crank adjustment, and Jam Arm System. The only difference between types is backboard size and material.
All six types share the same OmniJam platform, hand crank height adjustment, one-piece steel post, and 500 lb poly base. The only difference is backboard size and material.
The entry-level OmniJam with the smallest backboard in the lineup. A durable 36" x 48" acrylic backboard at the most accessible price. Best for younger players and programs where budget is the primary consideration.
Steps up to a 36" x 54" acrylic backboard — a meaningful size increase over the II. Best for programs that want a larger playing surface while keeping acrylic durability and an accessible price point.
The largest acrylic backboard in the OmniJam lineup at 36" x 60". Best for programs that want the maximum acrylic backboard size before stepping up to glass.
The entry-level glass OmniJam. A 36" x 54" tempered glass backboard delivers superior rebound response and a premium playing feel at the most accessible glass price in the lineup. Best for players who want glass performance in a slightly more compact board size.
The largest clear tempered glass option in the OmniJam lineup. A full 36" x 60" tempered glass backboard delivers the best clear glass rebound performance and playing experience available in the series.
The most distinctive OmniJam configuration. A 36" x 60" smoked tempered glass backboard — the same premium dark aesthetic available in the OmniChamp Eclipse — delivers full glass performance with a sleek, unique look. Best for home courts and facilities where aesthetics matter as much as performance.
The OmniJam is available with two optional add-ons worth considering at the time of purchase:

All three systems in the Omni lineup share the same one-piece steel post, the same 500 lb poly base, the same six backboard configurations, and the same indoor and outdoor rating. The differences come down to the arm system and the height adjustment mechanism.
