Premium Size 5 PUL Soccer Ball with Pump and Needles
Built for Real Play on Rough Terrain
Give kids a real soccer ball that is built for rougher play conditions — not a thin “picture ball” that looks nice but fails quickly. This Premium Size 5 PUL Soccer Ball is designed for older youth, schools, sports ministries, church outreach programs, mission projects, and 10–14 year-old shoebox recipients.
Each ball comes pre-rolled and shrink wrapped for shoebox packing and includes a compact pump plus 2 inflation needles stored inside the pump handle. It is a strong choice for Operation Christmas Child-style shoebox gifts, youth soccer programs, and bulk donation projects where one durable ball may be shared by many children.
Note: Lion Wholesale discontinued the use of rubberbanding the soccerballs due to the indentation the rubber bands left on the balls. While they do eventually fill out, we wanted the ball to be in pristine shape the first time the child inflates it. We now use shrink wrap and secure it with tape or a sticker if it is a QR coded ball.
Why This Ball Is Different
- Premium PUL cover: thicker construction designed to better handle rocky fields, hard-packed dirt, concrete, and uneven ground.
- Full-size Size 5 soccer ball: a better fit for older children, teens, schools, clubs, and sports ministries.
- 2-ply butyl bladder: helps the ball hold air longer with fewer re-inflations.
- Machine-stitched panels: supports better shape retention, bounce, and regular play.
- Softer, grippier touch: better feel than many thin PVC novelty or “picture” balls.
- Shoebox-ready packing: each ball is pre-rolled and banded to save volunteers time during packing parties.
