James Naismith of the United States was the first to invent basketball. At first, the basketball hoop was just a simple basket. Naismith mounted it three metres above the ground on the stands at both ends of the indoor sports room, and replaced the original backboard with barbed wire. He also learned how to play football, rugby, and hockey. The original basketball game rules were developed based on the characteristics of other ball games. Later, as basketball game rules and venue facilities improved, people removed the prototype of the basketball stand, that is, the basket, and replaced the peach basket with a wire ring, and the original wire block with a wood backboard. The nett will serve as the basketball hoop.

Since 1892, basketball has spread all over the world, and basketball has been popularized and developed around the world. For the convenience of the game, the later basketball hoop is no longer fixed on the wall, but fixed on a supported shelf. The height design of the basketball hoop is designed based on a large amount of data collected from various factors such as people's height and jumping ability. The height of the rim from the ground is ten feet, which is 3.05 meters when converted to the international unit of meters. Naismith is also known as the "Father of Modern Basketball".

1. Periodic inspection
The most basic maintenance task for the basketball stand is to check it on a regular basis. Check the rust degree and firmness of the connection and welding parts twice a year, as well as whether the frame body has peeling paint, rust, or perforation. If the paint is peeled off, it must be repaired quickly or the steel of the basketball stand will rust, become severely corroded, and eventually perforated. The rusted and perforated parts should be repaired and anti-corrosion treated. The welding component is the most prone to deterioration. If there is any looseness or decay, it should be maintained and repaired as soon as possible with the manufacturer.

2. Application and upkeep
The rational use of the basketball stand is also part of the basketball stand's maintenance. The backboard is the weakest link in the basketball stand. It is easily disassembled during use. The use of bricks and other objects to hit the backboard must be prohibited. The same can be said for rim use. If the rim of a non-spring basketball hoop is tilted or broken, dunking is not permitted. The basketball stand should be enclosed, not be used, and the manufacturer should maintain or replace it.

3. Cleaning measures
Long-term use of the basketball stand will produce dirt and other impurities. The basketball stand should be cleaned regularly. In the process of cleaning the surface of the basketball stand, a neutral detergent should be used to avoid damage to the surface of the basketball stand. Compared with outdoor basketball racks, the main maintenance work of indoor basketball racks is cleaning. Because of the lack of natural clarity of rainwater, the backboards are easy to get dirty after long-term use, so corresponding cleaning measures are required.
