How to choose sports equipment

Basketball

Basketball gear is the biggest group, led by portable hoop systems that adjust in height, like the Everfit 2.6 m stand. Fill the base with water or sand for stability. Adjustable hoops let kids start lower and move up to the regulation 3.05 m as they grow. Wall mounted hoops suit tight driveways.

Soccer and other ball sports

Soccer goals, nets and training gear make up the next biggest group, with netball and tennis gear too. Pop up goals fold away for the park, while steel goals stay put in the backyard. Wall mounted ball racks keep the garage tidy.

Boxing and gym

Boxing and martial arts gear includes punching bags, speedballs, gloves and kids' boxing sets. Gym mats and gymnastics air tracks protect floors and give a soft landing for tumbling.

Picking by age

Many items are made for kids, with smaller sizes and adjustable heights, while others suit adults. Check the age or height guidance on each listing so you buy something that grows with your child.

Price guide

Accessories start from about $17, and most gear is around $65 to $70. Hoop systems and goals cost more. Brands include Everfit, Powertrain and CORTEX. For more training gear, see gym mats and gym equipment, or add a trampoline for the kids.

Sports Equipment: common questions

What height should a basketball hoop be for kids?

Regulation height is 3.05 m, but younger kids find it easier to start lower, around 2.4 to 2.6 m. Adjustable portable hoops let you raise the ring as they grow. Check the height range on each listing before you buy.

How do I stop a portable basketball hoop from tipping over?

Fill the base fully with water or sand, as the listing directs. Sand is heavier and will not evaporate or freeze. Place the hoop on flat ground and avoid hanging off the ring, as portable systems are not built for that.

Do basketball hoops need assembly?

Yes. Portable hoop systems arrive in parts and usually take two people a couple of hours to put together. Wall mounted hoops need fixing into solid brick or timber. Each product page lists what is in the box and any tools needed.

What size soccer goal should I get for the backyard?

Measure your clear space first. Small pop up goals suit young kids and small yards and fold away after use. Larger steel goals give older kids a proper target but need more room behind them. Check the goal width and depth on each listing.

Is a punching bag suitable for kids?

Yes, there are kids boxing sets with smaller gloves and lighter bags or freestanding punching stands. Check the age or height guide on the listing, and make sure the gloves fit snugly. Adult bags are heavier and better left for older teens.

What is a gymnastics air track?

An air track is an inflatable mat that gives a bouncy, cushioned surface for tumbling, cartwheels and flips. It inflates with a pump and rolls up for storage. Check the length and thickness on each listing to suit your space and the gymnast.
