Lots of 10 footballs

This selection brings together packs of 10 footballs intended for clubs, football schools, and training facilities. Buying in bulk is the usual way to kit out a category, where each player needs to have a ball during sessions. To make managing your club easier, payment by bank transfer is accepted from €300.

Why buy balloons in bulk?

An effective training session requires one balloon per player, or at least one for two players. For a category of twenty registered players split into two groups, ten balloons form the basic supply for a training session.

Buying in bulk has a second, less obvious advantage: all the balloons are identical, from the same model and series. The bounce, weight, and feel are consistent from one balloon to another, which matters when working on a repeated action.

What size balloon for which category?

There are three sizes in football. Size 3 is for the youngest categories, size 4 covers intermediate categories, and size 5 is for adults and the oldest categories.

The transition from one size to another follows the regulations of the federations according to age groups. This is the first point to check before ordering a bulk lot, since a size mistake renders the supply unusable for the intended category.

Training balloon or match balloon?

A training balloon prioritizes durability: thicker outer layer, reinforced seams, designed to withstand hundreds of strikes per week on various surfaces, including synthetic ones that wear out faster.

A match balloon is lighter and flies more consistently, but wears out much quicker with heavy use. The lots aimed at clubs are almost always from the first category, making them the right choice for daily use.

Maintenance and lifespan of supplies

Pressure is the primary factor in wear and tear. An under-inflated balloon deforms and stresses its seams, while an over-inflated balloon becomes hard and cracks faster. Regularly checking the pressure significantly extends the lifespan of a lot.

Storage also matters: a balloon left fully inflated in an unheated room over winter experiences significant pressure variations. Many clubs slightly deflate their supplies during the off-season.

Other packaging options and associated equipment

Other formats exist depending on the size of the group: lots of 5 for small teams and lots of 20 for larger setups. The balloon lots page includes all packaging options.

Equip your club at a lower cost

A supply of balloons represents a real budget item for an association, and it's a category where end-of-line products are interesting: a training balloon changes little from year to year. The sale section for clubs and the deals section for clubs gather these opportunities.

The clearance section and the deals cover a wider range of the site. In terms of timing, Black Friday kicks off the season, followed by the end-of-year holidays, the winter sales, and the French Days in spring.

Frequently asked questions

How many balloons are needed for a team?

One balloon per player is ideal for technical workshops, with one for two being the minimum required. For a category of around twenty registered players working in two groups, ten balloons form a basic supply.

What balloon size should I choose?

Size 3 for the youngest, size 4 for intermediate categories, and size 5 for adults. Federal regulations specify the exact correspondence according to age groups.

Are the balloons in a lot identical?

Yes, that's the benefit of this packaging: same model and same series, therefore a bounce and feel that are consistent from one balloon to another. This is useful when working on a repeated action.

How to maintain a supply of balloons?

By monitoring the pressure, the main factor in wear. An under-inflated balloon stresses its seams, and an over-inflated balloon can crack. Many clubs slightly deflate their stock during the off-season.
