Spalding Tack Soft Basketball

Yes, this ball is designed with a durable composite cover that holds up well on asphalt and concrete. While it mimics the feel of indoor leather, it is built to handle the rougher texture of outdoor surfaces without wearing down prematurely.

Size 6 is the official regulation size for women's basketball, featuring a 28.5-inch circumference. It is slightly smaller and lighter than the standard men's size 7 ball, making it easier to handle and shoot for players who prefer this standard.
