AFL Ball Inflation
One important thing to consider if you have bought or are thinking about buying an AFL football is inflating the ball correctly. Making sure that the air pressure level is right is important as over inflation could potentially damage your ball. Our FORZA AFL balls typically fall between 9-10 PSI or 0.6 – 0.7 Bar.
Selecting the right size footy is crucial for optimizing your performance and ensuring the longevity of your equipment. To help you make the best choice, we offer two standout options: the FORZA Torpedo Training AFL Ball, which features exceptional grip for maintaining control in wet conditions, and the FORZA Grand Match AFL Ball, which is crafted from leather with a textured grain for a secure hold.
As well as AFL balls we also have other AFL equipment for clubs, schools and home use so be sure to check out our full range of AFL products.
