Basketball Rims: We Need New Ones

Cromwell Hills has a beautiful basketball court that no one wants to play on!!!! Why? ... because they are double-rimmed hoops and made out of metal. What that does is cause the ball to bounce off immediately without any "give" that is needed for a typical basketball hoop.

Why is this important?

The rims at our park are double rim and made super stiff so it's not forgiving it doesn't catch the ball. A person can't get the ball in unless
it's a swish or a lucky bank shot. This problem has affected me personally. I live across from this park and I can't stand the rims. They are nothing like our league rim that are plastic. These rims are metal.
