Football Buying Guide

It is important to choose the correct size and type of ball when shopping for a football.
We have put together a guide outlining the three types of footballs and the relevant ball size according to age.


Footballs can be classified into three types: entry-level balls, training balls and match balls.

Entry-Level Balls

Entry-level balls are built to be durable and are usually heavier than other types of balls which makes them suitable for use on turf as well.

Training Balls

Training balls are similar to those used on game day, and are made with better bladders, are lighter and have better feel than the entry-level balls.

Match Balls

Match balls are high in quality and use materials and construction techniques that are geared toward making a football that is high-performance.
