For children age 7 years old to adult: An American Football approximately 5 inches in diameter with about 7.75 inches in finished length, weight approximately 2.85 ounces (about 80 grams). This is similar to a junior size American Football that is made from leather, rubber, or vinyl filled with air (all of which have a hard surface and can cause injury upon impact).Our Collapsible American Football, on the other hand, is very soft and flexible in its shape, allowing it to absorb most of the forces upon impact, ensuring total safety in playing, but retains its American Football property and can travel a long distance in the air when properly thrown with a tight spiral (the same throwing technique used in throwing the real Pigskin American Football), making it ideal for training and practicing throwing and catching with total safety. One can even practice throwing the American Football into the wall of one's bedroom or living room without causing damage as the ball will collapse upon impact and it will return to its original shape after a few bounces or pats on the ball.Start The Great QUARTERBACK AND The Great WIDE RECEIVER at a very early age with Great Fun and in TOTAL SAFETY.The training/playing is fun because it is "American Football" and it is totally safe for children as the ball is very soft and collapsible upon impact. It is so soft and safe that you can practice in your living room, bedroom, or in the kitchen (if you have a big kitchen). It is very compactable and can be squeezed into 1/2 of its original size for easy put away and take along . To return it to the original shape, just hit the ball into the air 3-4 times and it is ready to use again. |
