FAQs
What is the recommended age for a Size 4 football?
A Size 4 football is typically recommended for players aged 8 to 12 years old. However, always refer to specific league or coaching guidelines for exact age recommendations.
Does the ball come inflated?
No, the Puma Orbita 7 Ms Football is supplied deflated and will require inflation before use.
What material is the ball made of?
The ball is constructed from TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) material.

What does 'Officially Licensed' mean?
This means the product has met the quality and authenticity standards set by the brand or governing body, ensuring it is a genuine product.
Can this ball be used for official matches?
This ball is primarily designed for recreation and training. While officially licensed, it may not meet the specific requirements for all official match play, which often demand higher-grade materials and construction.
Troubleshooting
Ball is soft or deflated
Check the inflation valve for any damage and ensure the pump needle is properly inserted. Inflate the ball to the recommended pressure. If it continues to lose air, inspect for punctures.
Ball does not maintain shape
Ensure the ball has been inflated to the correct pressure. Persistent shape issues after proper inflation may indicate a manufacturing defect or damage from over-inflation or misuse.
Stitching appears to be coming undone
Inspect the stitching for any loose threads or tears. For minor issues, a sports equipment repair service might help. Significant damage may require replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This football is supplied deflated. You will need a football pump and a suitable needle to inflate it to the recommended pressure before its first use. Ensure the inflation needle is slightly wet or lubricated to prevent damage to the valve.
Compatibility: The Size 4 is generally recommended for younger players, typically aged 8-12 years, or for training purposes. Always check specific league or age group regulations for required ball size.
Care: To maintain the ball's performance and longevity, keep it clean by wiping it with a damp cloth after use, especially if played on rough surfaces. Avoid leaving the ball in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures for extended periods, as this can degrade the material. Store the ball in a cool, dry place. Ensure it is properly inflated for optimal performance but avoid over-inflation, which can damage the stitching and shape.
