Spalding Pole Pad Heavy Duty

The Spalding Heavy Duty Pole Pad is an essential safety wrap that protects players from hard contact with an exposed basketball support pole. On any court where the standard sits close to the baseline, a driving player or a diving loose-ball scramble can send an athlete straight into the pole — and this thick, wrap-around pad puts a layer of impact-absorbing protection right where it's needed. The secure Velcro closure makes installation and removal fast, and the universal fit covers the most common pole sizes.

Key features & specs:

• 1.5"-thick padding absorbs player impact with the pole
• Secure Velcro closure for fast, tool-free installation
• Fits 3", 3.5", and 4" support poles
• Wrap-around coverage protects athletes on drives and dives
• Durable vinyl exterior built for gym and outdoor use
• Trusted Spalding safety and durability

Coach's tip: Mount the pad so the top edge sits at least at chest height for the tallest players who use the court, and check that the Velcro seam faces away from the primary line of play. Care: Wipe the vinyl clean with mild soap and water, and re-secure the Velcro if it loosens over a season of use.
