Basketball size 6 – r500 purple turquoise

Official size 6 basketball suitable for playing basketball outdoors and indoors (Girls, women from 11 years old and boys from 11 to 12 years old).

Why start with the Tarmak R500 balloon?

The Tarmak R500 basketball is perfect for beginners. Its grip is made easier by the hollowed-out design of the channels and the grain on the ball’s outer shell. Made from foamed rubber (air injection into the rubber, which gives it a softer consistency), the ball feels softer. Its 100% polyester filament winding guarantees a good bounce. Highly durable, it can be used outdoors or indoors.

What size ball should I choose?

The size of the ball depends on the age or gender of the player. Size 1: From 2 years old Size 3 to size 5: Girl or boy from 4 to 6 years old / Category U7 Baby basket (depending on levels and clubs) Size 5: Boy and girl from 7 to 10 years old / Category U9 Mini chicks and U11 chicks Size 6: Boy from 11 and 12 years old / Category U13 Benjamins Size 6: Girls – Women all ages from 11 years old Size 7: Boy – Man all ages from 13 years old

Which ball to play basketball with?

If you want a very durable ball, opt for a rubber ball. If you want a ball with a good touch on the ball, it’s a leather or synthetic ball that you need

For a good bounce, at what pressure should you inflate your basketball?

An over-inflated or under-inflated basketball doesn’t allow for the best feel during the game. The recommended pressure for a basketball is clearly indicated on the ball by each manufacturer. Ideally, you should use a pump with a pressure gauge to be precise. At Tarmak, here’s the pressure we recommend: 0,62 bar. Enjoy your game!
