A signage system for a sports net, the sports net including a plurality of cords, the signage system comprising:
- a front surface configured for a display including at least one of text or graphics;
- a rear surface;
- and
- a plurality of fasteners coupled to the rear surface, each of the plurality of fasteners including a deformable element defining a channel configured to receive a length of flexible material,
- wherein:
- the plurality of fasteners include a first pair of fasteners positioned at first locations of the rear surface and configured to secure the signage system to separate cords in a first set of cords of the plurality of cords and a second pair of fasteners positioned at second locations of the rear surface and configured to secure the signage system to separate cords in a second set of cords of the plurality of cords, wherein the first set of cords extends in a first direction and the second set of cords extends in a second direction, the second direction being different than the first direction,
- the deformable element is u-shaped and includes a first portion connected to and extending away from the rear surface, an extension connected to the first portion and extending along the rear surface, and a second portion connected to the extension and extending towards the rear surface,
- a gap separates a distal end of the second portion from the rear surface;
- and
- a width of the gap is configured to increase when the deformable element is temporarily deformed to permit passage of the length of flexible material into the channel to secure the fastener to the plurality of cords.
A signage system for a sports net, the sports net including a plurality of cords, the signage system comprising:
- a backing piece including a front surface including a first adhesive region, a rear surface and a plurality of fasteners coupled to the rear surface, each of the plurality of fasteners including a channel configured to receive a length of flexible material;
- and
- a display piece including a front surface configured for a display including at least one of text or graphics, and a rear surface including a second adhesive region, the second adhesive region configured to be temporarily secured to the first adhesive region
- wherein:
- each of the plurality of fasteners includes a deformable element configured to temporarily deform to permit passage of the length of flexible material into the channel to secure the fastener to the plurality of cords,
- the deformable element includes a first post connected to and extending away from the rear surface, an extension extending along the rear surface, and a second post extending towards the rear surface,
- a gap separates a distal end of the second post from the rear surface;
- and
- a width of the gap is configured to increase when the deformable element is deformed to permit passage of the length of flexible material into the channel.
