Bought it for my soon to be 8 yo grandson. He just took up basketball. Used it to make him do some drills with the ball. After a couple of weeks, his coach said he improved drastically. Thanks Guys

My son loves it
Chất lượng rất tốt
Very good ball in indoor usage The grip is good Suitable for club and official game for children under 13y
La compramos para un niño de 6 años, muy deportista. Quizá algo pesada para un niño de su edad, pero pensamos que con lo que le gusta el deporte otra más pequeña le hubiera durado poco. Bota bien y el inflado dura mucho, contentos con la compra
Muy buen rendimiento, justo lo que necesitaba mi hija de 11 años
Con un hinchador de vez en cuando solucionado.
El balón cumple con lo que uno espera para el entrenamiento de los peques
Para niños que empiezan a jugar al baloncesto
Súper buen balon
Excelente producto.

For a good bounce, how much should you inflate your basketball?
A basketball that is overinflated or underinflated doesn't give you the best match experience.The recommended pressure is clearly marked on the ball by the manufacturer. Ideally, you should use a pump with a pressure gauge so that you can be more precise.At Tarmak, we recommend a pressure of 0.62 bars.Enjoy your match!
What ball size to choose?
The ball size depends on the player's age and sex.Size 1: From ages 2 and up Size 3 to size 5: Girls or boys ages 4 to 6 / Baby basketball under 7 age group (varies by level and club)Size 5: Boys and girls ages 7 to 10 / Under 9 and under 11 age groupsSize 6: Boys ages 11 and 12 / Under 13 age groupSize 6: Girls - Women of all ages over 11 Size 7: Boys - Men of all ages over 13
What ball should you use?
If you want a very durable ball, go for a rubber ball. If you want a ball with a good feel, leather or synthetic are what you need.
What height basket should you choose?
The official height of a basketball basket is 10 ft. (rim height).If you want a basketball basket for your child, you need something that will grow with them. For younger kids there isn't an official height so you can choose whatever suits them best.Up to the age of 10, club baskets are set at 8'6”. After the age of 10, both girls and boys play with 10' baskets.
