Franklin Sports Mini Sponge Foam Football - Grip-Tech Youth Football with Sift and Tacky, Easy Grip Cover - Perfect for Small Kids

so good! my dog just bit me

Soft and catchable. But has good weight to throw. Not good for dogs… this is our third.

I got two of these for my kiddos. They love to play chaos at recess. Balls are holding up well, and initially looked very cool. But color has faded fast.

Great grip material, sized perfectly for yoots - So comfortable to throw and catch. Adults can use too for fun. I didn't care for the extra guide bands they put between the lacing, but those peel away if you work at it. Asphalt and cement will chew this ball up over time, because of the softer grip material. So if you're playing with this on the streets with the boomboxes and parked car as an end zone marker, then consider buying two, since at this price they are well with it and replaceable.

This ball is very good. Kids can handle it well. When I ordered it though I thought I was getting all 3 footballs for the $15 price. We have a local store that sells these for $5 but in baby blue. When it says colors vary I thought it meant you will not get all three of the same color. I think they should put in the description that the price is for 1 football. After I received the football, I looked through all the descriptions and nowhere does it say 1 football but it has all three pictured together. This was misleading to me.

My kids have went though many of pool footballs in there time. So I can honestly say that I likely have more experience than most here. Out of all the footballs we've purchased, this is the first one that's checked every box. Soft enough not to hurt a kid if the throw goes off course but rigid enough to keep a tight spiral. It sheds water like a duck and drys just a fast.

Great football, soft enough to get them comfortable with the idea. But not a sponge. When aired up all the way it has a good firm feel. You'll want to get an air pump for sure, it does drop air pressure over a couple months.We've bought three of these. I'd say about 18 months of hard play max is about all they will last. But that's plenty good for me. My kids wear them out. They have a good texture for grip and don't just kill them if they plant the tip of the ball square in the chest.

My 9 year old son loves these footballs. This is his third one in the last few years. Very grippy, easy to catch and throw.

A great size for younger kids learning how to throw and catch. So far it appears to be durable and made with good quality.

Great football! Perfect size for little kids (3-5) and big kids (38+).We took this on vacation to the beach and played with it every day. It was great for the pool too.The size was perfect for travel! Instead of buying some cheap ball at the local walmart, I opted to take my own gear this time.Great idea! Easy to throw for kids and soft too! That way, when I hit them in the face with it, there were less tears than usual.No blood either! Good times.I would recommend this to any parents looking for a ball for the backyard or for a trip like camping or to the beach/pool.Would make a great birthday present for that neighbour kid who you don't really know or like too. But, you were invited to the party, so you better take something. Most kids like balls! This is a great toy at a really good price! Win Win!

Great product. Shipped quickly. Great for my 5 year old nephew. Ordered a blue ball but got red. Otherwise great quality for the price.

I would have given this 5 stars as this was exactly what we wanted except for the colour. On other products in Amazon, you can order a specific colour if that is an option. Not sure why we couldn't choose the colour as the description it stated that it came in 'assorted colors' and even had a blue football pictured. Anyway, it arrived on time and in good order, so we're happy. It's a fun little ball for kids and adults to just toss around.

Bought this for our trip to Dominican. It was the perfect size for playing catch in the pool. It doesn't retain any water and is a great quality. It is textured like a real football and is easy to hold. Definitely recommend! It was a great size for the kids to throw too.
