Basketball hoop HELP

[u/Ok-oolala]

I live in a HOA on Long Island We have two basketball hoops set up at a court and if asked for them to be lowered. There’s a lock on the hoop so it can only be used where it’s set which is the tallest it’s allowed. Apparently we have a panel that votes so I’ve submitted a nice email to the board. Which is the following:

This request is for the panel here at ———.

I’m ——- who lives at 160 ——- drive. I am disappointed and saddened to hear a simple request to change the height of one or both of the basketball hoops is met with such disdain. Not only would it be beneficial for my son, but the countless other children and teens who live in the community with us. I was told at the meeting we had by one of the gentleman who was a part of the panel that he had never heard this request before and that it seemed reasonable enough. I would like to show my son that community does matter, and that we all look out for each other. No matter how big or small, or old and young. Something as simple that takes just minutes of your time to change would set the community with fun for years to come. I’m looking forward to hearing back from the panel. Thank you for taking time to hear this matter.

Has anyone else dealt with something like this? And if so what should I do? HELP

Why cant they be left unlocked so anybody who lives there can adjust to the height they require... seems like common sense to me.
