Product Information
Full details
The Slazenger Wilson Soft Play Volleyball set is perfectly suited for physical education teachers, coaches, and recreational groups who need durable yet gentle equipment for skill development. Its primary advantage is the soft-feel construction that minimizes impact pain, making it an excellent choice for beginners learning to bump or set; however, users should note that these balls are specifically engineered for training and may not mimic the weight and response of official regulation-sized competition volleyballs.

FAQs
Are these balls official size?
These are designed for soft play and skill development. While they are appropriately sized for training, they may vary slightly in weight from professional match volleyballs.
Can I use these balls on concrete?
While they can be used on outdoor surfaces, the soft synthetic material will wear down faster on abrasive concrete compared to smooth indoor gym floors.
How do I inflate the volleyballs?
Use a standard needle-style ball pump. Moisten the needle with a drop of silicone oil or water before insertion to protect the internal valve.
What age group is this set best for?
This set is ideal for children, beginners, and school-aged students who are in the early stages of learning volleyball mechanics.
Is the pump included?
The set includes 10 volleyballs and a mesh transport sack. A pump is not included in the package.
Troubleshooting
Ball feels soft or under-inflated
Use a standard hand pump with a ball needle to inflate to the manufacturer's recommended pressure range. Do not over-inflate as this can damage the bladder.
Ball has lost its shape
Check for bladder damage. If the bladder is intact, the ball may have been stored under heavy weight; gently reshape it and allow it to sit at room temperature.
Surface feels slippery
Wipe the surface with a clean, slightly damp cloth to remove dust or accumulated grime, then dry thoroughly with a towel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Slazenger Wilson Soft Play Volleyballs remain in good condition, always use a ball pump with a properly lubricated needle to avoid damaging the valve. When not in use, store the balls inside the provided mesh sack to allow airflow, which prevents moisture buildup and mold. Avoid leaving the balls in direct sunlight or extreme heat for extended periods, as this can degrade the synthetic surface material. When transporting, ensure the mesh bag is not dragged on sharp surfaces to prevent tearing. For cleaning, simply wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry completely before placing them back into the storage sack.
