Outdoor and indoor soccer balls variants is one of the many classifications related to soccer balls and their specific features. The coverage is represents the major change with indoor soccer balls: this outer layer is in fact a felt type material very similar to the one used in the making of tennis balls. Other than this, there are no other technical peculiarities encountered with indoor soccer ball models that are not also present in outdoor balls.

The felt coverage is a necessity due to the field on which soccer is played indoors. While the bouncing features have a certain distinction on grass, the same background specificity has to be considered when it comes to playing indoors. There is no grass, and most of the time the floor of indoor play yards is polished. This means that the indoor soccer ball has to adhere well and be easy to use with the feet and legs.

The majority of manufacturers specialized in the production of soccer gear provide indoor soccer ball types of various sizes, with latex or butyl bladders, with 16, 26 or 32 panels and a three year guarantee most of the time. If you only need an indoor soccer ball to practice on your own or have fun with friends, it is not a must to purchase a brand name or a very specialized item. You should be able to practice and enjoy an amateurish match even with an indoor soccer ball produced by some no-name company.

There are three different sizes available for general soccer ball models as well: thus you can choose from size three, size four and size five, each corresponding to a group age category. Thus, size three works for children up to 8, and size four corresponds to the 8 to 12 age group. Anyone older than 13 qualifies for size five. However, exceptions in size choice apply to indoor soccer ball use.

The fact that indoor soccer is played on smaller fields with smaller goals, size four is generally chosen for most professional indoor leagues. Nevertheless, from league to league, other requirements may be necessary in terms of ball features as well. The factors that will therefore influence the choice of the ball are not only size, but the capacity of use and control strategy too. Hence, unless for amateurish practice, choice criteria are really important!
