What makes the Wizzy the ideal ball for children learning to play basketball?
Basketball is sport that requires dexterity and agility.
To make it easier for your child to learn to play basketball, we created a ball that is 18% lighter than other balls of the same size. This makes it easier for them to dribble, score and pass successfully.
At what pressure should you inflate your ball?
Inflating the ball correctly is essential if you want to have fun and practise efficiently. The optimum pressure is indicated next to the valve.
If you don't have a pressure gauge, drop the ball from shoulder height and it should bounce back to waist level.
