{"product_id":"scorpion-pk","title":"Scorpion Portable Pickleball Set","description":"\u003ch2\u003eScorpion Portable Pickleball Set\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe First Team Scorpion Portable Pickleball Set brings steady, in-ground style net performance to any flat court surface, indoors or outdoors. It is designed for schools, recreation centers, gyms, clubs, and multi-use facilities that need to set up pickleball quickly and clear the court just as easily when play is done.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach base unit has a weighted ballast box at the back with 300 lb of pre-installed weight. This keeps the base stable during net tensioning and play, and helps it resist tipping in windy outdoor conditions. Because the bases are weighted, the set does not need a long ground stiffening bar running along the bottom of the net. That keeps the playing area clear and makes both setup and storage much simpler for your staff.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoving the set is a one-person job. Tip the upright backward to engage the non-marking transport wheels, then push or pull the unit into position. When you return the base to its upright playing position, it rests on its foot pads and stays in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe heavy-duty pickleball net attaches to each post with Velcro post pockets. Velcro tensioning straps let you set the net to 36\" at the posts and 34\" at the center. Black safety padding covers each base to help guard against player contact, and it can stay on during transport. The bases and net store in an area of roughly 48\" x 60\". The black powder coat finish adds durability, and the set is backed by a lifetime limited warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo weighted base units with 300 lb of pre-installed ballast each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-marking transport wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTip-and-roll design for one-person transport\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo ground stiffening bar required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty pickleball net with Velcro post pockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVelcro net tensioning straps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack safety padding on each base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack powder coat finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for indoor or outdoor use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact storage footprint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eBenefits\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTurn any flat, court-sized surface into a pickleball court\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStable base helps the system stay put during play and net tensioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne person can set up, move, and store the system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWheels help protect gym floors and court surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClear playing area without a bar running under the net\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePadding stays on during transport, saving setup time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStores neatly when the court is needed for other activities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifetime limited warranty for long-term confidence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: First Team\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: Scorpion Portable Pickleball Set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: New\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse: Indoor or outdoor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBallast Weight: 300 lb per base unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Weight: Approx. 600 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShipping Weight: Approx. 700 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNet Height: 36\" at posts, 34\" at center\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePost Spacing: 22' apart (post to post)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStorage Footprint: Approx. 48\" x 60\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Black powder coat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWheels: Non-marking transport wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded: (2) portable bases, (1) net, (2) base pads, (2) base extension pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: Lifetime limited\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFAQ's\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included with the Scorpion set?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe set includes two portable base units, one heavy-duty pickleball net, two base pads, and two base extension pads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be used indoors and outdoors?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
