  Lasswade rugby club find these balls to be first class players like the texture for handling even when it is raining. Our team place kickers think they are equal to the Kinetca balls we used last year

  I have been buying this ball for several years now. Always stands the tests of a season. Best price I could find was Newitts. That was even after an offer of the same ball direct from the manufacturer via Ulster Rugby at a discounted rate.
