Why choose this ball?
Our design team observed players like you out on the pitch to design this 5-a-side hybrid ball. It's hybrid in concept because we've combined the comfort of machine stitching with the durability of hand stitching. It makes learning the first technical moves easier and resists the challenges of matches on smaller synthetic pitches.
Foot5, Society, Calcetto or Five-a-side?
"Calcetto" in Italy, "Society" in South America, "Five-a-side" in the UK and "Foot5" in France, the words might vary between countries, but the game is the same. Our ball can be used by anyone, regardless of the word you use.
Weight
Between 350 and 390g (Size 4)
Circumference
Between 64 and 66cm (size 4).
A "round" ball?
It might look like it is, but in fact, a ball is never perfectly round! The average variation in the sphericity of our ball is a maximum of 1.5% to ensure smoother and more comfortable sensations when in use.
Homogeneous bounce!
Optimal bounce in this size 4 ball, between 80 and 100cm. Thanks to our technical components, the maximum difference between the lowest and the highest bounce is 10cm, ensuring a homogeneous bounce.
Tips for optimal inflation [...]
We recommend inflating this ball to a pressure of 0.55 bars to get the best from it! Don't worry, it's completely normal for the ball to lose some pressure after a few days (0.1 bar in 72 hours). The pressure is guaranteed thanks to the Butyl latex bladder.
Play in all weather!
Playing a game in the rain is something that happens to every player! We've simulated these play conditions in the lab to ensure our ball doesn't get heavier through absorbing water. The variation in weight does not exceed the initial weight by more than 15%, or 60g for this size 4 ball.
Maintains shape and pressure
2500 shots at 50km/h on a sloped concrete surface for a distance of 2.5m. This is the most demanding test we've made our ball to pass:
- the seams resisted this test
- the circumference didn't increase by more than 1.5cm
- the sphericity didn't vary more than 1.5%
- the ball lost no more than 0.1 bar of pressure
