🏈 Franklin Sports Grip Rite 100 Rubber Junior Football: Optimal Grip for Young Players Review

I was a bit disappointed as for some reason I had to wait a very long time for delivery. Actually I had ordered two and had to cancel the second order as it didn't arrive in time for Christmas and was a bit drained after all the waiting. Luckily I have a matching pump to refill it, but it was very odd that it came out that way.

I did not receive the color I ordered. I checked that I had actually ordered a red soccer ball. I got blue. My grandson's favorite color is red. Like all the other children, he is nervous about the corona virus. My goal is to help him take his mind off it in any way I can. That should go in his Easter basket. The football itself is great. I know it seems like a small thing, but I know the reason is important to me.

Lots of complaints about size in other reviews. This isn't a mini soccer ball, but it's a little smaller than a full-size ball, which I (and my kids' opinion) think is great for kids. It has a durable rubber coating and is softer than a real football, but doesn't feel like a styrofoam ball at all. This seems like a good compromise/step up from a foam soccer ball to me, which for me doesn't quite match a full-sized leather ball.

Amazing thing, I mean this thing is very durable, I dropped it the other day and checked and the ball was fine, I got it for my girlfriend for Christmas. She insisted she didn't want football when I asked her 1000 times because she had never seen a Christmas story. And she loved him so much that she immediately wanted to play with him. While still in the box, she tossed it to me (or should I say I). Thanks guys for a great product

I have a young nephew who has injured himself with a regular sized soccer ball since he ate it in the face last summer. I always thought he would have what it takes to be an athlete when he grows up, so we chose this one as being less intimidating and more appropriate for his height. Passes in our casual soccer games. My nephew likes it best and it has rekindled his interest in football.
