15mm Continental Ball

Have a new challenge for ya, Jim :-)

Solo action gets even closer to the real game!

Will try and get a photo up later.

Sounds interesting Steve

Excuse the barefootin' beach soccer figure, it's just to give you an idea of ball size against the player.

Looks ok mate , is that one of those pro-action soccer balls Steve ?

D'you know what, Jim, you might have it. I got this off Smudger ( Mark Smith ) and he couldn't remember what game it came from. I've had a little search on the net but no luck so far. Will go and investigate further.

I just remembered he had it, and thought it would be great for action shots when the stadium is complete, and he was good enough to pop it in the post for me.

Looking at this, you could well be right my friend.

Easiest way to tell Steve , it will have a magnet in it mate

Oh! Spanner in the works then?

Just loose and rattling about or in the lining of the ball?

There's no obvious evidence of it. I should perhaps offer it up to a metal goalpost and see if they're attracted?

No it won't rattle about , they are built in , very solid little balls

No chemistry between ball and metal goalpost, Jim. So it's origin is a mystery.
Lovin' playing with it, regardless.

Talking small balls Steve , bought this beaut from John Briggs a few Sheffields ago , have played matches with it , it's brilliant , and you can , if you catch it right "stick it in the top corner " .Brown ball is an ff for comparison

It's a hollow plastic ball quite light , but not too light .

Oh, Jim, that's a beauty. Does he have any more? And is he easy to get hold of. I'd love to paint one up for the beach soccer too.

He may have others Steve , he used to have a big plastic container full of various balls .He may still be on the green forum jabdc is his id , you could try a pm

Nice one, Jim. Will do.

Nice one Stevem ffs would be ok to play with, need more skill controlling the ball instead of over sized 22mm every one uses with stupid oversized goalies etc.
