ABSTRACT:
A ball having the general appearance, shape and aerodynamic characteristics of a conventional football when thrown or kicked; but which is softer and lighter allowing for its use in congested areas--it does not travel as far when thrown or kicked--and by younger children who are more susceptible to injury with a conventional football. The ball is comprised of a polyester batting interior or center having a wool batting inner cover and a polyester double-knit outer cover. The ball preferably has "cross stitching" prepared from a textile paint to give an elevated or raised ridge for gripping the ball thereby enhancing its throwing characteristics.
