The average variation must be no more than 1.8% (in accordance with FIFA BASIC rules).\n\nIf the ball goes beyond this threshold, our engineers intervene to optimise its shape and guarantee an even, precise bounce with every kick!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eThe ultimate resistance test: the machine shot test\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe most demanding test that this ball is subjected to is the machine shot test.\nThe ball must resist up to 2500 shots against an inclined flat concrete slab at 50 km\/h at a distance of 2.5 m.\nAt the end of the test, we check:\n- the ball's general state: the stitching must withstand this test.\n- the circumference: it must not have increased by more than 1.5 cm.\n- the sphericity: it must not have varied by more than 1.8%.\n- the pressure: loss of pressure must not exceed 12.5%.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eClubs, why not enjoy unlimited playing time?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCheck out the Play Unlimited subscription:\n- Worn or punctured balls?

After 72 hours, its pressure must have decreased by no more than 15% (around 0.1 bar), ensuring that the remaining pressure is around 0.7 bar.\n\nThis means that it's perfectly normal for the ball to lose a little pressure over a few days. Pump it back up regularly to keep it in good condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eThe story behind this ball\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's important that young footballers have a ball that's the right size. That's why our design teams have developed the Training Ball, so that every age category has just the right ball.\n\nSize 4 between 9 and 12 years.\nSize 5 for over 12 year olds.\n\nIn addition, we have conducted numerous lab and field tests to guarantee the ball's ability to withstand every hit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eHow big is it?
