This this the Umbro FA Cup Hi Vis match ball which will be used in the dark winter months of the 08/09 FA Cup.
The FA Cup Dynamis ball has been in development for 2 years before in was launched back in may 2008 and has undergone rigorous testing in both science laboratories and on football pitches by professional players from clubs across the UK.
These tests have resulted in the proof that a new 20-panel configuration is faster than the more traditional 32-panel ball thanks to the reduced curving that the new design provides.
Other product innovations include a new exclusive Teijin micro fibre material providing players with a super soft touch (all defenders please note before you lump it in to row Z) and increased power through greater elasticity and stretch.
The Umbro FA Cup Hi-Vis matchball is available in the FSC shop
