Soccer (or football, as it's known outside North America) is probably the easiest ball game for blind players to participate in. The only real difficulty blind folks face is knowing where the ball is. Our authentic, industry-standard soccer balls are identical to the ones used by amateur and professional soccer players across the country and around the world. There's a powerful difference that allows EVERYONE to share in the simple joy of kicking a ball around - for fun or in the name of competition. The modification we speak of is that each of our balls has several metal jingling bells inside, so everyone will know where it is whenever it's in motion. Whether the ball is in the air, has just landed, or is rolling across the grass, it makes a pleasant tinkling sound that's easy for blind players to hear ... and follow - and locate! Measuring 8.5 inches in diameter, this size five soccer ball makes for a great choice for anyone of any age. Made of PU Leather with a Latex bladder, the ball is blue and silver in color. Its durable construction ensures it holds its shape (as well as the air inside) for a long, long time, yet it's relatively light weight gives it a key advantage for those just learning to kick, run after, and catch a ball.
