KIN-BALL Game Ball, Pink

Imagine a ball that is giant yet as light as a feather. The KIN-BALL® game ball is a unique ball that encourages and challenges all participants on the court to stay active and keep moving. Everyone can take part in the game, and everyone feels included despite different skill levels. Teamwork, tactics, team spirit, and lots of movement with and without the ball are key elements of the game. Studies show that a player in KIN-BALL® moves more than a player in football. So it is also a great cardio sport. The balls can also be used for a wide range of other activities, games, and exercises. In short – a perfect school activity.

In recent years, KIN-BALL® has become one of the most popular sports/activities in schools. It is appreciated by all age groups in elementary school, special education, and upper secondary school. Even students who do not normally enjoy ball sports often participate with great enthusiasm in KIN-BALL® activities.

The sport is biggest in Canada, with thousands of registered players in Quebec alone. The ball consists of a durable nylon canvas outer cover that lasts for many years. The inner part is a rubber bladder that can be replaced very easily.

The ball can be used both indoors and outdoors.
The ball is 1.2 m in diameter and is available in black and pink.
The price includes the outer cover and 2 replaceable inner bladders.

“The activities with the ball are great fun and suit our students very well because they are based on cooperation and everyone feels involved. In other team sports, some students often end up standing still during the game, but in KIN-BALL®, all students are moving throughout the game. We also often use the games and exercises designed for the ball.”

Tips for Omnikin balls with a standard bladder (the white one) with a large opening (KIN-BALL & Six-Ball)

Use a pump that delivers a lot of air, for example item no. 140396 or an air mattress pump. Otherwise, it will take a very long time to inflate the ball.

To close the opening of the bladder, the best way is:

1. Inflate the ball until it becomes completely firm and there are no wrinkles in the outer cover. When the last wrinkle is gone and the cover feels like a drum skin, it is fully inflated. (You cannot burst the bladder using the pump, so do not be afraid to pump hard.)

2. Hold the nozzle with one hand while rotating the ball around its own axis 5–6 times.

3. Tuck in the twisted nozzle, creating the “knot” formed by twisting. Be careful with sharp fingernails.

Also see the video shown at the top left among the pictures of the bladder.

If the ball will not be used for a long time, we recommend sprinkling a light layer of talcum powder inside the ball / on the outside of the bladder. This helps maintain the bladder’s elasticity and can extend its lifespan.
