FAQs
What is the main difference between Size 4 and Size 5 netballs?
Size 4 netballs are generally smaller and lighter, typically used by younger players (under 12 years old) or for training fundamental skills. Size 5 is the standard size for adult and U13+ competitive play.
How often should I check the netball's inflation?
It's recommended to check the inflation before each significant play session or at least once a week, especially if the ball is used frequently or stored in varying temperatures.
Can this netball be used in wet weather?
Yes, the Rhino Cyclone Netball is designed for all conditions, including wet weather. The 3D pimple grip pattern helps maintain control even when the ball is damp.
What material is the netball made from?
The outer surface is a blend of virgin grade natural and synthetic fibers, with two layers of laminated poly cotton and poly viscose underneath. The bladder is made from Nitrile.
Is this netball suitable for professional matches?
While designed for precision performance, Size 4 is typically used for junior or specific training purposes. For most official senior matches, Size 5 is the standard.
How do I clean the netball effectively?
Use a damp cloth to wipe down the netball. Avoid harsh chemicals or submerging the ball in water, as this can damage the materials and grip.
Troubleshooting
Netball not holding air
Check the valve for any damage or debris. Ensure the inflation needle is properly inserted and that the air lock system is functioning. If persistent, contact customer support.
Reduced grip after use
Clean the netball with a damp cloth to remove dirt and sweat that may be affecting the grip. Ensure the ball is completely dry before storage.
Ball feels too hard or too soft
Check the inflation pressure using a pressure gauge. Inflate or deflate the ball to the recommended PSI for optimal handling and bounce.
Uneven bounce
Ensure the netball is properly inflated and that there are no internal obstructions. Check for any visible damage to the stitching or surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This netball is designed for use on various court surfaces, including indoor and outdoor courts. It is suitable for training, practice, and recreational play.

- Cleaning: Wipe the netball with a damp cloth after use. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or soaking the ball in water.
- Storage: Store the netball in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Do not store it under heavy objects, which could deform the ball.
