What size basketball should you choose?
Basketballs come in different sizes, adapted to age and gender. Here is an overview of the most common:
| Size | Recommended for | Circumference | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-4 | Children under 6 years old | Under 692 mm | Under 470 g |
| 5 | Children 6-11 years old | 692-704 mm | 470-510 g |
| 6 | Boys 11-13 years old, girls 13 years old and up | 724-737 mm | 510-567 g |
| 7 | Boys and men from 13 years and up | 749-760 mm | 567-624 g |
If in doubt, use age and gender as a starting point, or choose the same size as used in the club or school.


Which material should you choose?
The material has a big impact on how the ball feels and how well it holds up. Your choice will depend mainly on where you play – and how often.
Rubber
Rubber balls are the obvious choice for beginners and outdoor play. They are affordable, durable and can withstand hard surfaces such as asphalt and tiles. However, the surface can feel a little rough during longer games.
Synthetic leather
Synthetic leather balls provide better grip and a softer surface than rubber. They can be used both indoors and outdoors and are reasonably priced. You can also find "premium synthetic leather", which has slightly better grip and durability.
Microfiber leather
Microfiber is a quality choice that is often used in tournaments and clubs. The surface is soft, has excellent grip and is slightly moisture-absorbent - making it especially suitable for sweaty hands and intense training.
Genuine leather
Genuine leather balls are the absolute top class. They are used in NBA and international matches. They may seem slippery at first, but become softer and better over time. Suitable for those who play a lot and only indoors.


Indoor or outdoor use
Basketballs are often labeled as:
- Indoor: Best for hardwood floors and semi-hard surfaces. Choose synthetic leather, microfiber, or real leather.
- Outdoor: Can withstand asphalt and hard surfaces. Choose rubber or durable synthetic leather.
- Indoor/Outdoor: Versatile balls that can be used on both surfaces, but wear out faster on asphalt.
If you play mostly outdoors, choose a durable ball. For indoor use, we recommend microfiber or real leather for the best playing experience.
Air pressure in a basketball
A basketball should have an air pressure of between 7 and 9 PSI. A pressure of around 8 PSI provides a good balance between control and bounce. The higher the pressure, the more bounce – but also more difficult to control for new players.
