1) It's a ball
2) It presumably holds air long enough to make it through a practice
3) It is size five
Please, don't be that parent that sends their kid without a ball, a ball that doesn't hold air, or is size 4 but they need a size five. After a couple seasons of coaching I learned really quickly to buy half a dozen cheap balls every single season to save the NFHS balls for games. I get it because I had kids too, but I had one kid whose parent decided to punish him for not playing well by not getting him a new ball when his developed a leak (figuring that once he got better they'd buy him a new one), another who insisted on a size 4 ball because their kid was smaller than average (never mind we used size 5 balls in our league), and the inevitable parents who wouldn't replace the one their kid lost when they booted it into the poison ivy filled woods behind our fields. That kid with the ball that wouldn't hold air?
And I'm in one of those 'wealthy' towns and kids would show up wearing $130 cleats and the parents driving the latest luxury car.
Seriously, support your kids. Get a few of these and put your kids name and phone number on the ball with a sharpie (bonus if you do it near the fill valve so when I do have add air I can find it easily).
Is this a great soccer ball? No. It is slippery when it gets wet and likely won't last more than a couple seasons of heavy use, particularly if your kid practices on artificial turf. Don't let your kid sit on it as a 'chair' otherwise it will egg. Even if your kid has a really nice soccer ball, this is the kind of cheap ball you send your kid with to practices and save the good ball for when you take your kid to the field to practice or if they're on a club team that requires a NFHS certified ball.
Great deal, OP.

Great deal, OP.
Now my daughter is in U12 and their team uses size 4, but they're so close to needing 5 it's better to size up, IMO.
For size 3 - 4, there is a similar one for $14 here: https://a.co/d/0gdxQca

Who tf came up with the bright idea to have a green soccer ball?
Great idea for anyone that trains at big indoor facilities with hundreds f balls bouncing around. My son loses 3-4 balls a season I feel like. Now I only buy obnoxious colors.
Everyone else can check their balls for initials over and again.

Making your kid show up with this ball because you don't want to spend the money is cruel, and tells them you don't care about them, or soccer. Get them a good ball, and teach them to take care of it. Come on, people.
