This rectangular heavy-duty single mast construction
offers an aesthetically pleasing backstop unit,

The standard frame color is Royal Blue, but custom
colors are available upon request. We recommend
electric operation utilizing either the C833 Wood,
C835 Glass or C834 Steel Backboards. The C820

The C850 backstop assembly raises the industry

of installation, space efficiency, attractive
