It's a worthy thing to worry about. I'd be inclined to cruise to the
manufacturer's web site and look around for a FAQ or a customer

I was interested enough to search on it and found this:

"The best option to fill your portable basketball goal is with
non-toxic antifreeze, which is recommended to protect pets and the
environment. Antifreeze will keep the base from cracking from frozen
water in the winter and also keep the bacteria to a minimum in the
summer heat."

Wow, never thought of that. That sounds like a great idea. The website
you gave says two gallons should do the trick. Thanks!

And thanks to everyone who responded.
