Sports reviews of Spalding Rookie Gear Football
Customer Review: We Love It - Great for Younger Kids !!!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
My 8 year old son and husband just finished playing with this football for the first time since receiving it for Christmas and couldn't say enough good things about it. My son (who has some minor fine motor problems) previously had less than encouraging experiences with other kid-sized footballs to the point where he had given up playing.
This ball however has a nice grippy surface, is lightweight enough for him to throw well (which just encourages him to try again), has nice laces for throwing and is easy on the person catching the ball too. Five stars all around from us and thanks for making a ball that has my son participating again!
