Troubleshooting
Ball won't inflate
Ensure the pump needle is fully inserted into the valve and that the pump is functioning correctly. Check the valve for any debris or blockage.

Inspect the inflation valve for any damage or leaks. Ensure the needle was properly withdrawn after inflation. If the issue persists, the bladder may have a leak and require repair or replacement.

Check the inflation pressure and adjust if necessary. Ensure the ball has been stored properly and not subjected to excessive pressure or heat.
