FAQs
What is the correct age group for a Size 4 ball?
A size 4 football is typically the regulation size for youth players aged 8 to 12 years old.
Does this ball come inflated?
No, the ball is usually shipped deflated to prevent damage during transit. You will need a ball pump to inflate it.
Can I use this ball on concrete?
While it can be used on various surfaces, playing on concrete or asphalt will significantly decrease the lifespan of the ball's outer material.
How do I know the right PSI for inflation?
Check the panel near the valve for the manufacturer's recommended PSI range, typically between 6 and 8 PSI for most training balls.
Is this ball suitable for match play?
It is primarily designed as a training ball, though its consistent quality makes it more than adequate for recreational matches.
Troubleshooting
Ball loses air pressure frequently
Ensure the valve is properly sealed; try using a small amount of silicone oil on the inflation needle to maintain the valve's integrity.
Surface scuffing during play
This is normal for training balls. If scuffing is excessive, ensure the surface of the pitch is clear of sharp rocks or abrasive debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Puma Prestige football, always check the recommended PSI printed near the valve before inflation; over-inflating can stress the seams. Use a quality ball pump and a moistened needle to prevent damage to the valve.
Care Tips:
- Cleaning: Wipe the ball with a damp cloth after use on muddy surfaces. Avoid submerging it in water.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent the materials from drying out or becoming brittle.
- Compatibility: The Size 4 specification is specifically recommended for children between the ages of 8 and 12 years old.
