FAQs

What size is this football?

This is a Size 5 football, which is the standard size for adult players (aged 12 and above).

What materials is the ball made of?

The ball is constructed with 60% Rubber, 15% Polyurethane, 13% Polyester, and 12% EVA.

How should I inflate the ball?

Use a standard football pump with a needle. Inflate to the recommended pressure, usually indicated near the valve. Avoid over-inflation.

Can this ball be used in wet conditions?

Yes, the durable casing can handle wet conditions, but it's best to clean and dry the ball after use to maintain its condition and longevity.

Is this ball suitable for professional matches?

The Nike Pitch Team Football is designed for everyday play and training. For professional matches, higher-specification match balls are generally recommended.

How do I clean the football?

Wipe the ball with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.

What is the main benefit of the Volt/Black color?

The high-contrast Volt/Black colorway is designed for enhanced visibility on the pitch, making it easier to track during play in various lighting conditions.

Troubleshooting

Ball not holding air

Check the inflation needle and valve for damage. Ensure the needle is properly inserted when inflating. If the bladder is compromised, the ball may need replacement.

Ball feels soft or deflated during play

Check the inflation pressure before play and re-inflate if necessary. Frequent re-inflation might indicate a slow leak, requiring a closer inspection of the valve or casing.

Casing feels rough or damaged

This can occur from use on abrasive surfaces. Minor scuffs can be wiped clean, but significant tears or wear may impact performance and require ball replacement.
