Cute colors - but NOT softJul 07, 2010
By Toodles! I bought the yellow and pink balls. I have twin toddlers, so I wanted something "soft" yet cute for them to play with when we go to the sand. The colors look great, the ball looks like its made of good construction, but I'm disappointed in the feel. I know its synthetic leather, but still, the NAME of the ball is "soft play". The ball came inflated and in a box (like you would buy from a retailer.) I may deflate it to see if that helps some.
I also own Wilson AVP Official International Game Ball Volleyball. Its pricier, but if you can save up, the ball feels so nice to the touch. I'm an adult and play with this ball - it would be great for teenagers at least. I also just purchased Mikasa Starter One 5.5 Ounce Volleyball and I really like that for toddlers and little ones. It is a softer feel, light weight and has a nice rebound. I feel that touch is important when kids are learning to play. If their arms hurt, then they will likely not want to play as often.
I wished I would have bought the Mikasa ball first. I'm disappointed in this ball and do not recommend it unless you are not that serious about volleyball, like the colors, or you need to stick to this price point.

Not so softJul 05, 2010
By Rach i hav the light blue one they say soft play but they r hard with in 5min your arms hurt from hitting it
volleyball was too hard.Nov 01, 2011
By L Almond I got this volley ball for my 7 and 9 year old gilrs to play and learn with. When we got the ball it seemed ok, a little hard but I thought that would improve over time. After we had played with it for a few weeks, it was not improving. I would not recomend this volleyball. It is a great price, but not the best to play with.
It's an outdoor volleyballMay 20, 2011
By Thomas Kennedy They aren't supposed to be soft. The indoor version is much softer. I have played with a Wilson SoftPlay indoor ball, but I don't see one on Amazon. The Molten MS-500-N Ultra Soft NCAA Recreational Volleyball may also be a good choice for people looking for a good soft vball
