Rainbow Supra Plus Soccer Balls
Lighter weight makes this soccer ball a great training option as players develop their skills. It is 30% lighter than a standard ball, making it less intimidating for young players. The lighter weight also helps prevent stinging, which is especially important for goalies.
Made with beginners in mind, the vinyl cover replicates the feeling of a game ball without having the impact. The cover is more durable than fabric and other trainers. A nylon backing adds another layer of durability while still making it a softer, friendlier option for players than regulation balls.
Butyl bladder provides better shape and air retention compared to balls with latex bladders so there's no worry of lumping or flat balls. As the most durable lightweight trainer we have to offer, you can use it both indoors and out!
