What to Consider When Choosing a Football from U16 Onward

Choosing the right football for a player aged sixteen or older primarily comes down to size, material and intended use. Size 5 is the standard and perfect for training sessions and matches on a full-size pitch. Be sure to check the material: PU (polyurethane) balls are durable and suited for intensive use, while leather is often used in match balls for optimal touch and feel. Some materials provide extra grip, offering better control on wet or hard surfaces.

Depending on how often and how intensively you play, you can choose between a training ball and a match ball. Match balls typically meet official standards and offer higher-quality finishes. Training balls focus more on durability and daily use. A ball certified with a FIFA Quality label or KNVB approval means it complies with professional standards for weight, bounce and shape retention.

Brands with Extensive Options for Senior Football

Within the Youth U16 and Senior football category, you’ll find a wide range from established brands. Derbystar brings its top-league experience with models suited for both amateur and elite players. Nike offers a mix of training and match balls, known for their high-grade finish and iconic designs. Select also delivers high-quality options that are particularly well-suited for clubs and advanced training sessions.

These brands offer a broad selection across various price ranges and often provide multiple versions within the same ball type. This allows you to choose based on your budget and intended use. Thanks to ongoing product development, they continue to meet evolving demands on the pitch.

Durability and Certification of Match Balls

Many match balls in this category feature a FIFA Quality or FIFA Quality Pro label. This means they’ve been tested for criteria such as shape retention, weight and water absorption. They meet international standards. The selection also includes KNVB-approved balls, which is helpful if you play in league matches or organize tournaments.

In addition to certifications, construction also matters. Match balls are often thermally bonded for seamless finishes and reduced water uptake. This is ideal in changing weather conditions. Combined with durable outer layers and a wear-resistant internal structure, this ensures long-lasting performance, even under heavy use.
