Abstract: A quick connect/disconnect basketball net support for supporting a basketball net relative to a rim includes a flexible elongated rod capable of being formed into a hoop corresponding to the shape of a basketball rim. The elongated rod is threaded through upper loops of the basketball net and has its opposite free ends provided with quick connect/disconnect means for attachment to one another to provide the hoop formed elongated rod for supporting the basketball net. Attached to the hoop formed elongated rod are a series of circumferentially spaced quick connect/disconnect means in the form of releasable fasteners which releasably attach the hooped form elongated rod and basketball net relative to the basketball rim. On opposite free ends of the hoop formed elongated rod are complementary releasable connectors for quick assembly and disassembly of the hoop formed elongated rod relative to the basketball net.
