Think more than hoops got shot.
Someone shot the cache.
Only a few plastic remains, torn zip bag,
left mark on scrap paper, but this needs attention asap.
(ie whole new container)
Sorry to see it so sad.

Found it. Just like previous posts... container is smashed. No log book or anything.
Found the base of the container on the ground near location. No lid. No contents. Requires maintenance.
Found the shattered remains of the case. Notepad and such nowhere to be found.
Replacement required.

Cache needs repairing. Lid is smashed and it was out in the open. Put what was left in a ziploc bag and have covered it back up
I TAKE IT BACK!!!!! Set up a tracker!!!!! We found an around the world token!!!!!
Hi there Waterlogged.
We found your cache **"Shoot Some Hoops"** at 10:39:00 AM today.
This was our 7th cache find in a caching run of 7 Finds & 2 DNFs today. (So this now makes our find count 12908.)
Today was far too hot to do any long walks, so we decided that we would just log a few local caches before heading back to camp for some air conditioned comfort.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** Container has no clips and the lid is cracked. The log book is in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

Three geo kids found their first treasure for today. Only one small swag item so we added some extras for the next Geo kid
Down at the MIL's for the day and I had to make a trip to Moana to pick up some of my favourite perfume.
This cache was on the way (well, only a slight detour
) and a quick find 
1st of 2 caches found today
It's a shame that so many playgrounds either don;t exist or are so sanitised by safety that they are actually not helping children develop coordination and muscle tone

Great hide! Our first find, very excited boys! Left a little trinket for the next person.
A couple of walks in circles then aha!
Based on a photo I lifted the lid and looked in the sprinkler system. I recommend no one does. The cache is not in there, but a family of red backs is!

We nearly didn't find this.
The camo was excellent, and required a second look before we found the cache.

A smoking muggle ignored us which was very helpful. A devious hide! Panicked a little on this one.

Haha weird little park that one, nice little spot for a cache tftc was a lovely day to explore some local parks I've never seen before lol
Found it. Put the log and pencil in a cliplock back to keep dry. Thanks for the hide.
No wonder people having been struggling to find it! Great hiding spot. Lucky we brought Nannie!!
Came for our first electric train ride in Adelaide and was pleased to make a find and score a smiley face. Yes they do need a playground here, but I grew up opposite a massive park along the torrens river and the council was always promising a playground that never happened either. Was initially worrried it hadn't. Seem found in a while but it was sticking out from it's hidey hole uncovered. Placed it back and provided some natural camo. Located with iPhone. Thanks for the cache.
Our first find! It was tricky but with perseverance we managed to unveil a treasure!
Found with the help of a little friend who had found it previously. Completely empty though. No log book or swaps. We added a small item for the next person.
I think it was it. Was pretty devastated. base of container and a $1. Needs maintenance

Merry Christmas.

Found it! It was empty though and no log book inside. I put something small in anyway for the next person to find.
Good hiding spot no swaps disappointing for a three year old put a swap in for next person
Felt like an idiot looking at the wrong place for ages!! But finally found it on our way to the car!
