David 0 Report post Posted August 30, 2003 Doug,A size 4 soccer ball is an appropriate size for this age group. I believe that he really won't progress to a size 5 until he is 10 or 11 years old. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shtcricket 0 Report post Posted February 1, 2005 size four is recommended for growth and developing skills and plus your child is still small, they should use a ball more appropriately adjusted to their size and as they grow they move into a size 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
