Players ages 9 and under should use a pee-wee size ball. It’s critical we give young players the right size ball. If we give them a ball that is too big for their hands or too heavy for their arms, they are more prone to injuries and won’t have the success of gripping and throwing a ball accurately. We want to make sure to create a fun environment for these beginners!
Players ages 10-12 should use a junior size 6 ball. At age 10, kids now have the developed strength, skill, and size to handle the size 6.
Players ages 12-14 should use an intermediate/youth size 7 ball. As kid’s hands get bigger and the players get more skilled, they can grip a bigger ball. A bigger ball can also help players catch longer passes more easily.
