FAQs
What is the correct size for young players?
The Puma Orbita 6 is available in Size 3, which is ideal for younger children (typically aged 8 and under) to help them develop fundamental skills.
Is this ball suitable for professional matches?
While inspired by professional league balls, this is primarily a training ball. Official match balls often have different specifications and certifications. However, it's excellent for training like a pro.
How do I maintain the ball's air pressure?
Regularly check and maintain the recommended air pressure using a ball pump and pressure gauge. The rubber bladder offers excellent air retention, but occasional top-ups may be needed.
Can this ball be used in wet conditions?
Yes, the vibrant design and durable TPU shell are made to perform well in various weather conditions, including rain. Ensure the ball is cleaned and dried properly afterward.
What is the warranty period for this football?
Warranty information typically varies by retailer. Please refer to the point of purchase for specific warranty details regarding manufacturing defects.
How does the foam underlayer benefit play?
The foam underlayer provides cushioning, which enhances the player's touch on the ball, making it softer to control and improving dribbling capabilities.
Troubleshooting
Ball is not inflating properly.
Ensure the needle is inserted correctly into the valve and is not blocked. Check for any damage to the valve itself. Use a reliable ball pump.
Ball losing air quickly.
Check the valve for leaks or damage. Ensure the ball is inflated to the correct pressure. If the issue persists, the bladder may be compromised, and the ball may need replacement.
Ball does not feel round or has an irregular bounce.
Ensure the ball is fully inflated to the recommended pressure. If it remains misshapen, the internal panels or bladder might be damaged due to over-inflation or impact.
Surface scuffs or peeling.
Minor scuffs are normal with use. Clean the ball regularly with a damp cloth. Avoid using the ball on abrasive surfaces excessively if you want to preserve the outer shell's appearance.
