Hey everyone, I'm trying to get into the soccer team next year. Just to familiarize myself, what's the most common type of soccer ball used in high school sports?
Hello! While there might be slight variations depending on the school and region, high school soccer teams in the United States typically use a size 5 soccer ball. This is the international standard size used in all professional leagues and the World Cup.
While the brand of soccer ball can vary, one of the most common brands used is the Nike Premier Team NFHS Soccer Ball. It is approved by the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS). Other popular options include the adidas MLS NFHS Ball or the Select Numero 10, which both adhere to NFHS standards.
However, remember that while knowing the equipment is important, practicing your skills with consistency is key. Good luck with your soccer pursuits!
