What to expect below 500 rupees: volleyball vs Official size & material

All sports have regulating authorities - national and international. These governing bodies decide the official size, type, quality, physical properties & materials for each sport’s goods.

In the case of volleyball, there is many governing bodies both on national and international levels like FIVB, VFI, NCAA, AVP. These organizations demand specific qualities & standards from Volleyballs & even other accessories like volleyball shoes, apparel & gadgets etc.

Volleyballs below price range of 500 are from good brands will last long & are of good quality. But most of them are not made with officially recommended material or size.

• Officially recommended make material of volleyballs by fivb(International volleyball federation) is Non-woven fabric + PU.
• And number of panel for official tournaments under the governance of FIVB is 8 to 18 panels.
• And weight 270±10 gram. And circumference: 66.0 ± 1.0 cm.

But many volleyball balls available under 500 rupees differ from officially recommended size. Even more costly volleyballs are not made with these measurements or standards in mind. But it is okay if is used for just recreational purpose like in most cases.
