Description
Overview
The Wilson NBA Forge Pro Basketball is the step up from the standard Forge, built around Wilson's Real Grip coating and Pure Feel MicroFiber cover. In tan and size 7, it is the full senior size for secondary school and club players. It is listed for training and recreational play rather than as a competition match ball.
Because it is rated for indoor and outdoor use, one ball can move between the gym and the asphalt court, which is the main reason to pick it over an indoor-only ball from the Wilson range.
Key benefits
- Consistent, predictable bounce from the Ever Bounce internal construction.
- Softer touch on the hand thanks to the flexible Pure Feel MicroFiber cover.
- Holds air between sessions with a composite bladder built for inflation retention.
- Real Grip coating strengthens the surface and extends the ball's working life.
Who it's for
Size 7 is the senior ball. The store size guide puts it at ages 15 and over, so it fits senior secondary students, club teams and adult recreational players. Younger players should look at the WILSON NBA FORGE BASKETBALL TAN – S6 for ages 10 to 14, or the S5 for ages 7 to 9.
Sizing guide
Basketball sizing: size 3 for under 7 years, size 5 for ages 7 to 9, size 6 for ages 10 to 14, size 7 for ages 15 and over. This listing is size 7 only.
Care, safety and set-up
Check pressure before each session and top up with a needle pump; the listing does not say a pump is included. Wipe the cover after outdoor sessions so grit does not wear the coating.
