What ball size should you choose? 


For durability, choose a rubber ball. If you want a ball with a good feel, leather or synthetic is what you need.

What ball should you use?

A basketball that is overinflated or underinflated doesn’t give you the best match experience.
The recommended pressure is clearly written on the ball by the manufacturer. 
Ideally, you should use a pump with a pressure gauge for precision inflation.
We recommend a pressure of 8.99 psi.
Enjoy your game!

How much should you inflate your basketball?

The official height of a basketball net is 3.05 m [10'] (rim height).
If you want a basketball net for your child, you need something that will grow with them. 
There isn’t an official height for younger kids, so you can choose whatever suits them best.
Up to the age of 10, club nets are set at 2.60 m [8'6"]. 
After the age of 10, both girls and boys play with hoops set at 3.05 m (10').

What hoop height should you choose?
