INTRODUCTION
Thank you for your purchase of a Gared Sports model Varsity Jam Adjustable Backstop. To

Please note that a Bill of Materials is being included with this guide. Please check that all of the

Please do not substitute for factory parts. Please contact your dealer or Gared or Performance

It is recommended that an individual who has been properly trained perform assembly and set up
of the backstop. No one under the age of 18 should attempt assembly or set up of the unit, unless

To prevent normal wear and tear from shortening the life of the unit, preventative maintenance
inspections and repairs should be performed at least once per year. If the units are subject to
high or unusual usage, inspections should be scheduled to occur more frequently. If items are
found to be nonconforming, replacements can be ordered from Gared, Performance Sports
Systems, or one of our authorized dealers. When contacting Gared or PSS, please have
information regarding the dealer/installer who sold the unit, the name of the project, and any
applicable warranty information.
