Description

So, you are thinking of building a GaGa Ball Pit — we are here to help! Our systems are made to easily construct your own pit, saving you time and money. Whether you are a master builder or have never drilled anything before, our kits provide step by step instructions and videos to guide you along the way.

Next, look at your available space — the inside play area of a pit depends on the length of lumber used for your pit walls and the GaGa Ball pit shape you choose. Standard wood or board lengths are either 8ft or 10ft long. Our GaGa Ball pit models come in either Hexagon or Octagon shapes.

NOTE: Bigger is not always better for GaGa games — the goal is to keep each game moving quickly and competitively by keeping the inside play space sized appropriately to how many players jump in at the start of each game. The most popular choice is to build an Octagon using 8ft walls.

GaGa Ball Pit System	Measurement Wall To Wall
Pit Shape	Using : 8ft Boards	Using: 10ft Boards
HEXAGON – 6 walls	14.5 ft	18 ft
OCTAGON – 8 walls	20 ft	25 ft

NOTE: When measuring, allow 3-5 ft on all sides outside of the pit to players to participate in and watch the game.

Then decide how high you would like your GaGa Ball pit walls — 30 inches (30H) is most common, 24 inches (24H) or even 44 inches (Octagon shape only and for extreme GaGa ball enthusiasts).

You purchase your wood locally to save on shipping cost.

Our suggestion for wood is to purchase 8ft or 10ft treated or untreated wood. See below for the number of boards needed for each GaGa Ball pit model.

REMINDER: Wood needs to be purchased from your local home improvement store or lumber yard.
