About Spalding NBA Rookie Youth Indoor/Outdoor Basketball
Amazon.com Spalding Rookie Gear sports equipment is designed to make it easier for young players to shoot, kick, throw, and catch. In general, the line weighs about 25% less than standard youth balls for children age eight and under. A lighter ball creates a better playing experience for kids, allowing them to practice proper fundamentals and build confidence in their skills. The size five (27.5-inch youth) Rookie Gear basketball is made of performance composite leather for soft feel and outdoor durability. Parents and coaches typically notice immediate improvement in shot mechanics and dribbling technique with the lighter ball, and kids will be able to shoot from farther out, catch passes with more confidence, and rebound fearlessly.
