Knockerball® is a single chamber inflatable sphere with inner handles and adjustable shoulder straps. Knockerballs® range from 1.2 Meters to 1.5 Meters and the size or fit is predicated on your height. Knockerballs® can be used singularly to perfect your rolls, flips, and wheels. "KnockerBallers" describe the sensation as almost defying gravity, just imagine the sensation and mobility that a Knockerball® allows you to experience without putting any stress on the body. With two or more Knockerballs® the experience is catapulted into rip roaring laughter, exhilarating knocks and rolls that will keep you coming back for more. Organizing a KnockerSoccer game is truly a blast but we will warn you, organized games generally break down into literal knock down chaos with the only resulting pain being from laughing so hard and having way too much fun.
This sport is so new and we are proud to be instrumental in introducing one of the coolest products to come along in a long time to the U.S.A. Till now, Knockerball® or "bubble soccer" has been gaining traction in Europe, Australia, Japan, and elsewhere. Leagues are opening up all over the United States so isn't it time you "GET IN THE BALL" and see what you've been missing?

How do I fill up my KNOCKERBALL®?
When choosing a pump to fill your Knockerball® you want to look for one designed for large inflatables. You can even use a shop vac on reverse with a half inch cone attachment. Fill time is generally about 2.5 to 4 minutes depending on the size pump you are utilizing. Your pump should have a fill capacity of 2.8 psi. Note, you want to make sure not to over-inflate your Knockerball®. We recommend about a 2” depression with your hand when you pushed on a filled ball. It should be firm but not hard. If it is over-inflated, when the players hit each other it can cause a breach. You need to allow a little space for the air to move inside the ball upon impact.
Is KNOCKERBALL® as much fun as I see in the TV commercial?
Definitely, KNOCKERBALL® is not only incredibly fun and safe, but we guarantee you will leave with a smile!
How old and how tall do I have to be?
All participants under 18 must have adult supervision. KNOCKERBALLS® are available in two sizes currently: 1.2 meter or medium recommended for male or female under 5 feet seven inches: 1.5 meter or large for those over 5 feet 7 inches. Here is why. It is important that your KNOCKERBALL® is adjusted to cover from above your head to just above your knees. This will ensure that you maintain proper protection for rougher play. Remember to adjust the shoulder straps accordingly so to obtain optimum bodily coverage. Please refer to directions for restrictions.
Can I use my Knockerball® in cold weather?
We do not recommend subjecting Knockerballs® to extreme cold weather. Whether you are using a PVC or TPU unit it is highly recommended to only use this product in temperatures ranging from 50 degrees to 85 degrees. Extreme cold may make the material and the glue joints brittle therefore rendering your Knockerball® unusable.
Additionally, do not subject the product to extended exposure to UV light ( over 72 hours) as this exposure may have a similar effect on the raw materials and joints. Obviously, you will be playing Knockerball® in the sun but we suggest not to store them or leave them inflated for days at a time in the hot sun.
Please follow similar guidelines for storage of your Knockerballs®.
