A system for connecting the dunk ring of a basketball-stand to a beam of the stand, the back-board being of glass and being surrounded and supported by a frame which is connected to the beam. A spacer block is interposed in the connection of the dunk ring attachment plate and the attachment element of the beam. The spacer block allows for a sufficient spacing, which, at least, corresponds to the thickness of the back-board. The back-board is then provided with a cut-away which is open towards the lower edge and which, in its mounted position, straddles the spacer block. In this way forces from the ring to the beam are guided directly, without in any way imparting the back-board. The spacer block may be realized in such a way that it is fixed to the lower element of the frame which surrounds the glass back-board.
