Overview
Not a men's size ball, the Nike Elite Championship 8P 2.0 is sized for kids, with a faux leather cover that is bonded rather than stitched. Textured channels run through the cover for grip.
Buy it as a practice ball for a young player who wants a textured, channel-grip surface in black and gold. It arrives deflated, so a pump and needle are needed, and the listing says nothing about indoor or outdoor use.
Who it's for
A kid practicing at home or at a local court gets a smaller faux leather ball with channel grip. Older players who need a men's size should look at a larger ball.
