This isn't a new topic so didn't mean to bring up an old thread but just the timing being right around the corner, thought it might be on more minds right now.

Cesar, I know Basketball had to use Rawlings and our Football coach says they have to so I assume that yes, its MOST sports. Does Rawlings even makes a Tennis and Lax ball ? What about Golf ? I dabble a little when I can chopping around the course but I know many golfers who swear by Titleist Pro V1 and other top brands etc. The technology employed in all sports these days as seen in the improvement in apparel etc also extends to the ball. In Soccer, the improvement in touch and feel and ball response to striking the sweet spot or offset to curl etc are all very welcomed advances to the game. An inferior older style of game ball might seem a small thing but does represent a step backwards for me.

Look at the end of the day, I know its as my students like to say .... #firstworldproblems
so I'm not getting bent out of shape over this.

"You make the rules, we'll bring the balls" I did that all by myself BTW . No copyright on the slogan wink
