Frequently Asked Questions

  • • Does the ball arrive inflated? No, for logistics efficiency, these balls are typically sold deflated; a standard ball pump and needle are required.
  • • Can I use this for competitive soccer? While it can be kicked, this is a lightweight recreational ball rather than a match-grade football.
  • • How do I clean it? Simply use a damp cloth with mild soapy water; avoid using harsh chemicals that may fade the rainbow print.
  • • Is the valve replaceable? The valve is built-in; if it becomes dislodged, the ball will no longer hold air and will require replacement.
