Football adapted to the player's level of advancement.

Football is undoubtedly the most popular sport discipline, which gathers the largest crowds of fans in the stands. A wide selection of balls designed to play football in different conditions, on different surfaces and for people with different skill levels allows you to choose the right model for everyone. Footballs have a spherical shape, they are distinguished by a solid construction that will meet the strength of the strongest kicks, and must also have the right weight (410-450g) and the correct air pressure to ensure good rebound and elasticity. Mainly, the balls are made of 32 panels in the shape of regular pentagons and hexagons joined together by various techniques. The panels can be connected by thermal welding, manual or machine stitching and gluing. The most durable is, of course, a sewn ball, but it entails a higher price, so it is worth noting that if we are looking for a model that will serve us for a long time, we should not save. We also distinguish balls for amateur players, training balls and professional match balls. For people who play recreationally, we recommend cheaper models that are not worse made, but it is worth paying attention to the high-quality TPU material. In our offer you will also find models dedicated to popular football teams, so fans can buy a ball in the colors of their favorite club. Another type - training balls are designed mainly on the model of match balls, they belong to the category of balls called replicas and are produced using cheaper materials. They are also usually made of TPU material. The highest placed in the hierarchy are match balls used in professional football competitions. These models are FIFA certified, have coatings welded together under the influence of hot temperature, are supported by technologies that affect the quality of the game and are made of the highest quality materials.

What to consider when choosing football?

When choosing a football model, bet on products from proven manufacturers. Nike, adidas, Select and Puma are the key brands in our store's offer, for a reason. We realize that only high-quality balls made with attention to detail are able to last many matches. When looking for the perfect ball, you should be guided primarily by the basic criteria, namely the surface on which the ball is intended. In football, we distinguish outdoor games on outdoor surfaces and futsal played indoors. Therefore, we distinguish balls for natural grass, balls for artificial grass (orlik) and indoor balls. The first type is usually characterized by sewing coatings and thermal welding of individual elements, because the ball on natural grass must be durable and resistant to moisture. Balls for artificial turf must be made of the most durable materials resistant to abrasion. Indoor football, on the other hand, is less inflated, less springy, sinks quickly and bounces in a characteristic way that makes it easier to control. Another very important aspect to consider is size. Just like soccer shoes, the size of the ball must fit the player. The most popular is size 5 dedicated to adult players. In addition, the size 5 ball is perfect for natural and artificial pitches. Size 4 is our offer for playing in the hall and playing on various surfaces for youth up to 15 years of age. The size 3 ball will be perfect for children who are taking their first steps in the world of football due to the lower weight. The smallest balls in sizes 1 and 2 are dedicated to games for the smallest children.

Size characteristics:

SIZE 1 - intended for playing for the youngest, mainly for fun.

SIZE 3 - is designed for children starting their adventure with football, who learn the basics of this sport.

SIZE 4 - junior balls, often indoor balls.

SIZE 5 - balls for seniors used during professional matches and training.

FIFA certified soccer balls.

Certificates created by the International Football Federation - FIFA are the most prestigious awards that can distinguish a football ball. If a given model has the FIFA certificate, we can be sure of the highest quality of the product. The models with the FIFA QUALITY PRO certificate receive the highest scores, followed closely by the FIFA QUALITY certificate. Obtaining the FIFA certification is not an easy task. First of all, the balls must undergo many demanding tests that will allow to check its durability and determine whether it meets the standards accepted by the International Football Federation. The balls must pass tests on their proper weight, circumference, sphericity, water absorption, pressure loss process, maintaining the correct size and shape, as well as flexibility and rebound. The tests last up to 24 hours, and the balls are specially prepared for them. The processes are very rigorous, so not every ball will pass the test. So if you care about choosing the highest model of the ball, be guided by the FIFA distinction.
