Product Information

Full details

The Reebok Size 5 Rugby Ball is an essential tool for rugby players of all levels, ranging from school athletes to club members looking for consistent performance during training and match play. Its standout benefit is the combination of a high-traction textured surface with durable, reinforced panel construction, providing excellent grip and longevity under pressure. While it is built to official size standards, users should note that the ball requires proper inflation maintenance to ensure it retains its optimal flight characteristics and feel over time.

FAQs

Is this ball suitable for official matches?

Yes, it is designed to meet official Size 5 specifications, making it suitable for both competitive matches and training sessions.

What is the recommended inflation pressure?

It is recommended to inflate the ball between 9 and 10 psi, though you should always check for any specific markings on the ball valve area.

Can I use this ball on artificial turf?

Yes, it can be used on artificial turf, though it may experience faster wear on the textured surface compared to natural grass.

Does the ball come inflated?

Most Reebok rugby balls are shipped deflated to prevent damage during transit. You will need a standard needle pump.

How do I clean the ball after a muddy game?

Use a soft brush and a damp cloth to remove mud. Avoid submerging the ball in water or using abrasive soaps.

Troubleshooting

The ball loses air quickly

Check the valve for debris and ensure the inflation needle is not damaged. If the issue persists, the internal bladder may have a minor puncture.

The ball feels slippery during wet conditions

Ensure the surface is wiped clean of mud and debris. While the texture is designed for grip, excess mud will compromise its effectiveness.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reliable grip in varying weather conditions
  • Durable construction suitable for high-frequency training
  • Maintains shape well after repeated impact
  • Meets official size standards for competitive play

Cons

  • Requires manual inflation and pressure monitoring
  • Surface texture may wear down on abrasive artificial surfaces
  • Not intended for non-rugby specific activities

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal longevity and performance, follow these guidelines:

  1. Inflation: Always use a standard ball pump with a lubricated needle. Inflate the ball to the manufacturer-recommended pressure (typically 9-10 psi for a standard Size 5 rugby ball). Do not over-inflate, as this can strain the seams.
  2. Compatibility: This ball is compatible with standard kicking tees used in official rugby matches.
  3. Cleaning: Wipe the ball down with a damp cloth after use on muddy fields. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the textured surface grip.
  4. Storage: Store the ball in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sharp objects to prevent rubber degradation or puncture.
