When we designed our Scoretower the goal was to make a product that would last a lifetime and still be affordable. While the stylish trim line design looks simple it makes it versatile enough to be used indoors or out, but still be very rigid and lightweight.The scoreboard can be easily removed if desired. Ours won't break when you depress it into the ground like the plastic ones out there. One of these would make a great gift for someone that's hard to buy a gift for.
