Description
Overview
The Avaro Junior Rugby Ball covers the three Small Blacks junior sizes of rugby union in one listing: size 2.5 in orange for 7 and 8 year olds, size 3 in blue for 9 and 10 year olds, and size 4 in green for 11 and 12 year olds. Each size has its own colour under NZRFU regulations, so a coach can hand out the right ball on sight and kit bags stay sorted across grades. Designed in NZ by Avaro; see the wider Avaro range and our rugby balls.
