I practiced with this ball for a month without touching a standard match ball. When I went to use the standard ball this week it was like tossing around a toy. This is an amazing tool, and very rugged in its build. I orded this ball with a standard training ball, and the second ball had an air leak in it. The world rugby shop was more than helpful in replacing the second ball. They sent me a prepaid shipping label and handled everything getting me a good ball in less than a week. This has been an amazing tool for developing passing skills and just everyday handling.

Every rugby coach needs at least three of these, to work into the warm-up circle. If you're a backs coach, this should be the ball your backs use for all of their lines. Every scrumhalf needs to have one of these at home, to handle and get the feel of as he watches TV, eats dinner, and before he drifts off to sleep.

As with any Gilbert product, this is a top-notch piece of rugby kit. Coming in at over two pounds, this is a seriously heavy ball, one that will work your player's arms, particularly forearms and wrists, and especially if you are strapping in with a chest band and arm restrictors.

Bottom line: this is serious rugby training kit, and will work wonders on your players' ball handling and passing distances.
