Basketball Manitoba is pleased to announce the return of an initiative to give away up to 100 FREE basketball nets to be installed on public courts across Manitoba!  The "Nothin' But Nets" campaign aims to get every outdoor public basketball court outfitted with a new mesh this summer.  Since launching this campaign in 2021, Basketball Manitoba has distributed over 525 free nets for public courts to the Manitoba basketball community.  

NEW FOR 2026, Basketball Manitoba also has a limited number of new basketball rims available to the community to replace aging or damaged ones in public spaces.  Due to their size and weight, the rims will need to be picked up from the Sport Manitoba building in Winnipeg once they have been arranged for.  As rims require more work to install a net, these available rims must be installed by or with the permission of the facility owner or manager.  More details are in the request form.




Basketball Manitoba is grateful to Linking Hope for the donation of the new rims for this initiative!

Basketball Manitoba is pleased to announce a successful wrap-up of its campaign to distribute 250 free basketball nets to outdoor courts in Manitoba.  The "Nothin' But Nets" campaign launched earlier this spring and offered free basketball nets to any existing outdoor basketball court in Manitoba that is listed on the Manitoba Outdoor Basketball Court Map.  The virtual map has been collecting outdoor court data for almost 10 years and the free nets campaign saw that data jump from 100 to over 225 documented courts.  Data can still be submitted to the growing virtual map at any time.

LESS THAN 25 NETS LEFT: Basketball Manitoba is pleased to announce a new initiative to give away up to 250 FREE basketball nets to be installed on public courts across Manitoba!  The new "Nothin' But Nets" campaign aims to get every outdoor public basketball court outfitted with a new mesh this summer.  



We need your help!  

This campaign is being connected to the Manitoba Basketball Outdoor Court Map project where only outdoor courts appearing on the map are eligible to receive a free net.  The map feature currently has detailed court specs on over 200 outdoor public courts in Manitoba.  If your area outdoor public court is not already on the map, SUBMIT your specs first to us, then request your free nets.  

Basketball Manitoba will provide up to 2 high-quality basketball nets per court to the first 250 requests we receive this summer.  Those eligible under the terms of the campaign will receive the nets by mail shortly after submitting a request and then will be responsible for mounting the nets to the rim in their community.  Proof of the nets being mounted with a before and after photo will be required for the individual to remain eligible to receive future nets from Basketball Manitoba.   

There is no cost to request a net and requests can be made using the below form.  

Get out and enjoy our beautiful Manitoba summers on an outdoor court and make it all the more enjoyable with a free net from Basketball Manitoba!


3 STEPS TO GET A FREE NET

STEP 1.  ON THE MAP? Check if your public basketball court appears on the Manitoba Basketball Outdoor Court Map. 
 
⇾ If YES, then proceed to STEP 2.  
⇾ If NO, SUBMIT your court specs to us


STEP 2.  ALREADY REQUESTED? Check the below Nets Request Summary to see if your public court already has a submitted nets request. 
 
⇾ If YES, then the new net should be showing up 2-3 weeks after the rested date shown.  
⇾ If NO, proceed to STEP 3


STEP 3.  REQUEST A NET!  Once you have addressed steps 1 and 2, you can now request a free basketball net from Basketball Manitoba by completing the below form at the bottom of this page.
