How to maintain soccer
Every athlete knows that proper appliance maintenance is the key to accuracy and peak performance.Take a moment and read about how to take care of your football.
1. Pump up the ball
Usually water or soapy water is used
Before inserting the air pump needle, usually wet it with water or soapy water.A dry air pump needle may damage the ball valve, leading to a leak.
Little by little
You want to pump it up slowly and gradually get the ball up.If a large amount of air is forced into the ball using a compressor or similar device, the ball valve may collide with the stitches and cause the ball to break.
Follow the instructions
Excessive pumping can cause the ball to deform or expand.Follow the pressure requirements indicated on the valve opening.If you adjust the air pressure well, you can ensure your Molten ball is in the best condition when you need it most.
2.Check for leaks
Wash with soapy water
Sand or dust entering the valve can easily lead to air leakage.Wash it often and carefully with soapy water.And after washing, rinse well.
New ball flat
The first time you pump, air leaks out of the stitches.This is just the air between the bladder and the lining when the ball is made.This is completely normal and does not indicate a leak.
3. After the game
Clean the air after use
Since the ball is often inflated before the game, it should also be deflated after the game.A ball that stays at high pressure when not in use will expand and deform.
Scrub the surface
After use, use a brush to sweep the dirt from the gap in the ball.Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth.
4.Plastic balls also need maintenance
Plastic balls do not need to be deflated after use.However, be careful not to scrub the surface with anything containing grease or solvents.These substances can seep into where the leather joins, worsening the leather and causing it to peel off.
Be sure to follow the following care and custody.
(1) wipe clean and dry in the shade after use on rainy days.
(2) keep the ball in a dry and ventilated place, away from direct sunlight.
Keep the ball away from sharp objects, such as barbed wire, a broken wire mesh, rose thorns, cactus, or anything else that might puncture the ball.Small holes that are invisible to the naked eye can cause leaks.
Do not expose the ball to direct sunlight for long periods of time.
Keep the ball away from hot, wet areas.
Do not wipe the surface of the ball with benzene, whether it is natural leather or synthetic leather.
