FAQs
What is the recommended inflation pressure for this football?
The recommended inflation pressure is typically found printed on the ball itself, often near the valve. It's usually around 0.6 - 1.1 bar (9 - 16 psi).
Is this ball suitable for professional matches?
This is a club football designed for training and casual play. It may not meet the specific size, weight, and performance standards required for official professional matches.
How do I clean the football?
Wipe the ball with a damp cloth after each use. Avoid using soap or harsh cleaning agents. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by a thorough rinse with a clean damp cloth.
Can this ball be used on artificial turf?
While it can be used on artificial turf, it is primarily designed for grass. Frequent use on artificial turf may cause increased wear and tear on the cover.
What does the '100% TPU (100% recycled)' mean?
This indicates that the material used for the ball's construction is Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU), and all of the TPU used is sourced from recycled materials, contributing to environmental sustainability.
What size is this football?
This football is a size 5, which is the standard size for adult players and is recommended for ages 12 and up.
Where can I find other color variants or sizes?
You can usually find other available colors and sizes by checking the brand's official website or reputable sports retailers. Look for product codes or model numbers to identify variants.
Troubleshooting
Ball not holding air
Check the valve for debris and ensure the pump needle is inserted correctly. If the issue persists, the bladder may be faulty and require professional inspection or replacement.
Uneven bounce or shape
Ensure the ball is inflated to the correct pressure. If it remains misshapen after proper inflation, there might be an internal issue with the bladder or construction. Allow the ball to rest for 24 hours after inflation.
Cover scuffing or peeling
This is often a result of use on abrasive surfaces like concrete or artificial turf. Stick to grass surfaces for optimal longevity. Minor scuffing can be wiped clean, but significant peeling indicates wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: The football arrives deflated. Use a standard football pump with a needle to inflate it to the recommended pressure, typically indicated on the ball itself or in the product packaging. Ensure the needle is lubricated before insertion to prevent damage to the valve.
Compatibility: This size 5 football is generally compatible with players aged 12 and above. It is best suited for play on natural grass surfaces. While it can be used on artificial turf or indoor courts, this may lead to increased wear and tear on the cover.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, wipe the ball with a damp cloth to remove dirt and grass stains. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the polyurethane cover.
- Storage: Store the ball in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Do not leave it exposed to the elements.
- Maintenance: Regularly check the inflation level and re-inflate as needed. Inspect the stitching and seams for any signs of damage.
