Product Information

Full details

The Mitre Cub Rugby Ball is an excellent choice for junior players and grassroots training programs looking for a reliable, entry-level ball. Its primary benefit is the enhanced grip and durability provided by the embossed pimple surface, making it easier for developing hands to catch and pass effectively. However, users should be aware that the ball arrives deflated and will require a standard needle pump to achieve the recommended pressure before it is ready for the pitch.

FAQs

Does the ball come with a pump?

No, the Mitre Cub Rugby Ball is supplied deflated and does not include a pump or needle.

What is the recommended age group for a Size 3 ball?

Size 3 is generally recommended for children aged between 7 and 9 years old.

Is this ball suitable for match play?

This ball is primarily designed for training and recreational play; however, it meets general quality standards for entry-level youth games.

How should I store the ball during the off-season?

Store it in a dry, temperate environment away from direct sunlight to prevent the rubber casing from becoming brittle.

Can I use this ball on artificial grass?

Yes, the durable construction of the Mitre Cub allows it to be used on both natural grass and artificial turf surfaces.

Troubleshooting

The ball is losing air

Ensure the valve is not obstructed by debris and check that the needle used for inflation was not damaged.

Difficulty inflating the ball

Apply a small amount of non-petroleum based lubricant or water to the inflation needle before inserting it into the valve.

Surface appears dirty or loses grip

Use a soft-bristled brush with mild soap and water to clean debris out from between the pimples on the cover.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Textured pimple surface provides superior grip for younger players
  • High-quality construction ensures long-term durability
  • Size 3 dimensions are ideal for junior skill development
  • Reliable Mitre brand quality for consistent performance

Cons

  • Supplied deflated, requiring the user to own a pump

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To prepare your Mitre Cub Rugby Ball, you must use a standard ball pump equipped with a lubricating inflation needle. Insert the needle gently into the valve and inflate until the ball feels firm but still has a slight bounce; avoid over-inflating, as this can distort the shape over time. To maintain the ball, rinse it with warm, soapy water after muddy sessions to prevent dirt from caking into the pimple grip. Always store the ball in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight, as UV rays can cause the outer material to crack or degrade.
