Product Overview

Bring competitive fun to your swimming pool with the S.R. Smith Salt Friendly Challenge Swim-N-Dunk Basketball Game | S-BASK-CHA. Designed specifically for residential pools, this premium dual-post basketball system combines a regulation-style rim, durable clear acrylic backboard, and S.R. Smith's SealedSteel® salt-friendly coating for improved durability in demanding pool environments.

The S-BASK-CHA is especially well suited for saltwater pools where standard exposed metal components can be more vulnerable to corrosion. The frame is constructed from 304 stainless steel and protected with S.R. Smith's SealedSteel coating, while the regulation rim is also vinyl coated for additional protection.

This model includes decorative escutcheons but does NOT include deck anchors, making it an excellent replacement or retrofit option for pools that already have compatible S.R. Smith basketball anchors installed.

Product Specifications

Salt-Friendly Construction

Swimming pools equipped with salt chlorine generators can create a demanding environment for metal equipment. S.R. Smith addresses this with its SealedSteel coating, which adds a protective barrier over the stainless-steel frame and rim.

This makes the Challenge Salt Friendly Basketball Game an excellent choice for homeowners who want a permanent-looking pool game while maintaining additional protection against harsh pool conditions.

Easy Retrofit for Existing S.R. Smith Anchors

One of the major advantages of the S-BASK-CHA configuration is its ability to work with compatible existing S.R. Smith deck anchors. This makes it particularly useful when replacing an older basketball system without unnecessarily replacing anchors already installed in the pool deck.

Always confirm anchor spacing and dimensions before ordering.
