FAQs
What is the main advantage of the 6-panel configuration?
The 6-panel configuration enhances the ball's durability by an impressive 10%, making it more resistant to wear and tear during intensive training.
Is this ball suitable for match play?
The Mitre Impel EVO is primarily designed and optimized for training purposes due to its enhanced durability features. While it can be used for informal matches, it may not meet the specific standards required for official competitive match play.
How do I inflate the footballs?
Use a standard football pump with an inflation needle. Slightly moisten the needle before inserting it into the valve and inflate to the recommended pressure, usually found printed on the ball.
What size is this football?
These are Size 5 footballs, which is the standard size for senior players (14 years and older) and is commonly used in adult football.
Can this ball be used on artificial turf?
The product description specifies suitability for grass pitches. While it might be used on artificial turf, it is not explicitly designed for it, and doing so could impact performance and durability.
How should I clean the footballs?
Clean the balls with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive materials to prevent damage to the ball's surface.
What does the 'Pack of 12' mean?
The pack contains 12 individual Mitre Impel EVO footballs, which is ideal for teams or clubs needing multiple balls for training sessions.
Troubleshooting
Ball not holding air
Check the valve for any debris and ensure the inflation needle is properly inserted. If the issue persists, the bladder may be damaged and require professional repair or replacement.
Ball losing shape
Ensure the ball is stored correctly and inflated to the recommended pressure. Consistent over-inflation or prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures can cause shape distortion.
Outer casing seems worn quickly
Ensure the ball is only used on appropriate surfaces (grass). Using it on abrasive surfaces like concrete or asphalt will significantly reduce its lifespan.
