Official Gilbert Barbarian 2.0 Match Ball

is the most trusted name in rugby balls, and the Barbarian is the ball from the 1995 Rugby World Cup.

The Barbarian Match Ball features a Truflight Valve, a unique valve shape and placement that redistributes weight along the seams of the ball to improve rotational stability, resulting in greater accuracy on passes, and more control in the kicking game. The standard Gilbert grip with round pimples evenly distributed at a uniform height make the Barbarian a comfortable and predictable ball. The 3 ply poly-cotton and cotton laminate panel means that the ball will weigh slightly more. The ball will perform better on longer kicks and passes, and generally hold its shape better than a ball of 2 ply construction.

Features:

• Hand stitched to ensure quality and care
• Designed for Senior, Club and School players
• 3 ply poly-cotton and cotton laminate panel
• Truflight valve to ensure inflation through all weather conditions
• Copolymer 'air-loc' bladder to ensure the ball remains inflated

Ball Care:

• Prior to training or match, use a soft cloth, light detergent and warm water to remove dirt and residue from your rugby ball. This ensures that the grip remains in prime condition for maximum length of time.
