Not sure if this is the right forum for this . . . we are getting ready to install a basketball hoop (more for DH than DS, since DS is only 2!). Our driveway has a slope to it, which means that on all missed baskets, the ball will go rolling right down the driveway into the street. We're looking for some sort of net (preferably retractable) that can go across our driveway to prevent this. We found this one:

but it is only 18' (enough for a single car driveway) - our driveway is a double-car driveway, about 30' wide. Any suggestions? Thanks!!

Safe Beginnings has one that goes to 25', but it sounds like that's not going to be long enough. They also have the one Improvements has, but it's cheaper.

I found a copuon code for Improvements:
$10 off $50+ order.
Discount Coupon Code: MP6W101 Exp. 1/30/06

I have the same problem you do and was going to start looking for one of these this spring. Please post if you find something long enough. Thanks.
