Great for skint teams, brain damage for players

Advantages: Cheap....thats about it
Disadvantages: Mishapen easily, nothing outstanding about it, too hard (no cushion)

I have used a Mitre Tactic on many occasions now on all the surfaces (blaise, astro turf and grass) and I have always been underwhelmed by its performance. My old school got them in at dirt cheap prices (about £1.73 per ball when averaged out) and used them on our blaise pitches. This really was a nightmare as getting smacked on the thigh with one of these balls on a chilly december morning is never going to be an enjoyable experience. It would ...
...pan as kids lose millions more brain cells every time they header one of these rocks. It also won't fly very far and if the wind takes hold of it, it could go anywhere. With this said, it is quite a solid ball if just being used for perhaps passing drills or warm ups. It is by no stretch of the imagination anywhere near the standard of a match ball even for low level football but even still, i would recommend it as a ball to buy in bulk and use ...

Review of Mitre Salao Training Footballs

Mitre Malmo Training Football Review

Advantages: Very cheap, good value for money.
Disadvantages: Heavier and not as well made as some of the newer balls.

The version of this ball that I have is the Orange Malmo, Size 5, so opinions are based on this ball, I cannot vouch for any of the other sizes/colours. I bought it from Newitts for about £5.50 inc P & P. The ball seems fairly durable, though the stitching is more exposed than on a lot of the more expensive new footballs, so I would guess that after a while of playing in the wet the stitching would become weak, though have not subjected it to water ...
...a reason why this ball couldn't last for quite a few years. The ball feels fairly heavy compared with some of the new Nike and Adidas balls, but this isn't necessarily a bad thing; it depends on your preferences. If you are looking for a cheap football to practice with and have a kick around with your mates, then I would say this ball is a real contender. For my purposes of having a cheap ball to kick around a few times a month this one is ideal. ...

Review of Mitre Malmo Training Footballs

Bouncy footballs balls for kids and grown ups.

Advantages: cheap, good sports brand, durable
Disadvantages: seems poor qualitycompared to older balls, light but maybe to light

...balls we used were also mitre but were a bit tatty so I bought four 2, size 4 and size 5 the fours being for kids to use and the size 5's for myself. These balls ar light and swerve considerably compared to the older heavier balls. This in turn is easier on the foot and reuires less effort in passing and shoting and general contol while playing. Ideal for new starters to the game like the under tens I help train, they are also good when I play ...
...plastic one sufficient to blow up the balls fine to a good pressure. The balls were £14.90 from an inersport shop local to me and were recomended to me as i was looking at othere brands but I thought these would be ok. We have used them for around two months for easy traing through the summer on astro turff and grass and they are stil like new so they are very durable. But the light weight makes them seem less well made then the older balls we ...

Review of Mitre Monde Football

Outstanding, an absolute must, Mitre Revolve Footballs

Advantages: Perfect weight and power
Disadvantages: Design and durability

...am a fan of the Mitre V's that have been on their range of footballs since 19forever. But this does not matter a single bit, as when you come to play with the ball you don't need to admise the design, you simply 'feel' it. They are however unfortunately not particularly durable. Granted they are not supposed to be used on concrete, but the slightest usee can tear the synthetic coating. Nothing too damaging, but irritating non the less. As a keeper, ...
...have the lacquer like coating that most matchballs have, meaning it doesn't stick to gloves like some others do. However, it is a dream to distribute, either by hand or foot. I even dabbled with this ball out of goal. If I can pick out the top corner from 20 yards with this ball then I guarantee that you can! ...
