Product Information
Full details
The Mitre Ultimatch One Football is designed for amateur players, club teams, and training sessions requiring a reliable, weather-resistant match ball. Engineered for consistency, its standout benefit is the Hyper-Seal construction which eliminates water absorption, ensuring the ball maintains its weight and flight characteristics even in wet conditions; however, players should note that while it is highly durable for grass and astroturf, it is designed for standard match and training usage rather than high-abrasion concrete surfaces.

FAQs
Is this ball suitable for official matches?
Yes, the Ultimatch One carries FIFA Basic certification, meaning it meets the standards required for lower-tier official match play and club training.
Can I use this ball on concrete surfaces?
No, this ball is designed for grass and astroturf. Using it on concrete or gravel will lead to premature wear of the seams and outer casing.
Does the ball get heavy in the rain?
The Hyper-Seal construction ensures virtually zero water absorption, so it will remain at its original playing weight even in wet conditions.
What size should I choose?
Size 5 is the standard for adult and youth players aged 14 and up. Size 4 is typically for ages 8-13, and Size 3 is for ages 7 and under.
How do I maintain the seams?
Avoid scuffing the ball against abrasive surfaces and keep it clean. The thermally bonded seams do not require maintenance but will last longer if not exposed to excessive heat or sharp objects.
Troubleshooting
The ball feels too heavy or sluggish.
Check the inflation level. If it is under-inflated, the ball will drag on the surface and lose its aerodynamic properties.
Air is leaking from the valve.
Moisten the inflation needle with a drop of silicone oil or water before inserting to ensure a proper seal, and inspect the valve for any trapped dirt.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Mitre Ultimatch One, always use a quality ball pump and a lubricated needle to prevent valve damage. Inflate the ball to the recommended pressure (usually 8-10 PSI, though check the valve panel for specific markings).
Care Instructions:
- Clean After Use: Wipe the ball down with a damp cloth after playing on muddy grass to prevent grit from working into the seams.
- Proper Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, as UV rays can weaken the polyester material over time.
- Surface Compatibility: Avoid using this ball on asphalt, concrete, or gravel, as these will cause rapid degradation of the outer material and seals.
