It all started in 1973 as a playground equipment company called American Playworld, headquartered in a garage in Utah. In 1986, Lifetime Products Inc. split from American Playworld to form a separate company to focus on making basketball systems. Since then, Lifetime has transformed the sporting goods industry with the introduction of its adjustable basketball pole and portable basketball systems. Lifetime offers a full time lineup of basketball systems that caters to all skill levels. Product quality is guaranteed as all products are tested in Lifetime’s in-house testing lab. All systems are tested to ensure they meet stringent ASTM safety standards, as well as additional safety, environmental and practical use standards set by Lifetime. The quality of Lifetime basketball systems is the best in the world! Lifetime offers the best warranty in the business – A 5-year warranty that covers everything on the system “top to bottom”.
