IMPORTANT! Dig a round hole 24" (≈61 cm) deep and 18" (≈45.7 cm) in diameter. If you live in an area where frost heaves
may pose a problem, consult your local building inspector to determine the proper hole depth. The edge of the hole
should be fl ush with the edge of the playing surface.
! A ground sleeve is available as an alternative to cementing the pole into the ground. Please contact Customer Service for more information.
The edge of the 18" (≈45.7 cm) diameter hole should touch the edge of
the playing surface.
