The adidas Glider Football - Gold delivers consistent performance, making it an excellent choice for a variety of casual football activities. Its machine-stitched TPU casing provides a robust exterior that withstands regular use on various surfaces like grass fields or artificial turf, ensuring reliable ball control whether you're dribbling, passing, or taking shots. The casing's construction also contributes to the ball's durability, allowing it to endure countless kickabouts without compromising its shape or feel.

This ball is perfectly suited for informal matches with friends, developing fundamental skills, or simply enjoying a spirited kickaround in the park, bringing a touch of UCL flair to everyday play.
To get your adidas Glider Football ready for play, you'll need a standard ball pump and a needle.
Locate the Valve: Find the small opening on the ball's surface.
Moisten Needle: Lightly moisten the pump's needle before inserting it into the valve. This helps prevent damage to the valve.
Inflate: Slowly pump air into the ball. Refer to the recommended pressure (often indicated near the valve, if available, or a general range of 8-10 PSI for training balls). Inflate until the ball feels firm but still has a slight give when pressed. Over-inflation can damage the ball.
This football is designed for use on most common playing surfaces, including:
Natural grass pitches
Artificial turf (3G/4G pitches) It is an ideal choice for casual play, training, and recreational games.
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your football:
Cleaning: After use, especially on muddy or dusty surfaces, wipe the ball clean with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap solution and then wipe clean with a separate damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Storage: Store the ball in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid leaving it inflated in hot cars or near heat sources, as this can damage the bladder and casing.
Inflation Maintenance: Periodically check the air pressure and re-inflate as needed to maintain optimal performance. Do not over-inflate.
Refer to Product Label: Always check the specific care instructions on the product label for any additional recommendations.
