Select CLUB V26 FIFA Football Ball, Size 5

The Select CLUB V26 FIFA Football Ball is a high-performance, size 5 ball engineered for consistent play in both training sessions and competitive matches. Designed to meet the rigorous standards of the FIFA Basic certification, this ball offers reliable flight characteristics, weight, and rebound performance. Its construction utilizes premium materials that ensure durability and shape retention, making it a dependable choice for clubs and individual players who require equipment that performs well across various outdoor pitch surfaces.

Advantages

This football features a sophisticated 32-panel construction that is both stitched and glued, a process known as double-bonding, which significantly reduces water absorption during wet weather play. The exterior is crafted from a durable PU material enhanced with a soft TPU foam layer, providing a responsive touch and comfortable feel during contact. The textured surface of the ball is specifically designed to improve grip and ball control in diverse weather conditions. Furthermore, the inclusion of a high-quality SR bladder ensures excellent air retention, meaning the ball maintains its optimal pressure for longer periods, reducing the need for frequent inflation.

Suitable for

• Youth and adult football training sessions
• Competitive match play
• Outdoor grass and artificial turf pitches
• Clubs requiring FIFA Basic certified equipment

When it may not be suitable

This ball is primarily designed for outdoor use and may experience accelerated wear if used consistently on abrasive surfaces like concrete or asphalt. It is not intended for indoor futsal play, which requires balls with different bounce characteristics and construction.

How to use
