3Introduction
Note: The Flex Net supplied with this system will stretch slightly during the first few uses.
This is a natural consequence of the headband fibers being stretched under tension.
During this break-in period, the headband and net body may sag during use. Simply
increase tension (center if necessary) to remove the sag.
These instructions assume that the appropriate ground sleeves have been correctly
installed:
•The inside bottom surface of the ground sleeves must be 10” below ground level
(Figure 3-1).
•The PVB 9500 standards will fit most 3” inner diameter ground sleeves.
•The bottom 10 inches of the standards have been covered with an outer layer to
improve fit in most ground sleeves. If fit is too tight, cut outer layer with knife and
remove.
•The Flex-Net will work with ground sleeves spaced 35’ to 37’ apart on center1.
1NCAA and NFHS rules require that the upright standards must be installed at least 3’3”
(1m) outside the court boundaries. Jaypro recommends 36’ spacing on center to satisfy
both regulations.

1. Install each upright into the ground sleeves.
* The bottom 10 inches of the standards have been covered with an outer layer to
improve fit in most ground sleeves. If fit is too tight, cut outer layer with knife and
remove.
2. Follow instructions included with winch to set the winch clamp to the correct
upright diameter (3”).
3. Install winch to one upright using the socket cap screw and acorn nut (Figure
6-1, items 1 & 2).
4. Fasten the clamp together using the cap screws supplied with the winch (Figure
6-1, item 4-1).

7. Set the height of the uprights using the installed height adjust pin (Figure 6-4).
WARNING: Release tension from the net, if installed, before removing height adjust
pin.
Figure 6-4: Set upright height.
8. Attach D-rings on net headband to extension cords to the carabiners (Figure 6-3).
Figure 6-3: Attach net to straps.
9. Tension the net by turning the winch handle clockwise2. Adjust anchor strap as
necessary to keep net centered.
***The net will stretch ~6 –8 inches when tension is applied so you must factor this
in before applying tension when centering the net.
10. Verify net heights and net centering. The uprights will deflect inward and
downward due to net tension; you may need to adjust their heights and/or re-
center the net.
2NCAA and NFHS rules stipulate that there be no more than ¾” of sag in the net
headband when fully tensioned.
