Subject: Just did one earlier this month


West Central MN
The cement pad which was our basketball court was breaking up so bad that it was dangerous to walk across it much less play basketball on it.

So, I tore it out and replaced it. The pad is 27 x 38 and I went 6 inches thick since I wanted to make sure and do it right. I'm sure 4 inches would be plenty thick if you are trying to cut costs and know you won't be driving on it. The hoop is centered on one of the 38 foot sides and we poured a little extended area underneath the basket to allow for lay ups. This summer we have the 18' above ground pool sitting on the pad which works very nice. I am now looking for a nice "glass" backboard to replace the plywood sheet that was the backboard.

Ended up using 20.5 yards of concrete at $100 per yard and probably about $400 worth of rebar. Did all the labor and dirt work our selves.
