10 Best Footballs UK 2024 | Adidas, Nike and More

The Uniforia was the official match ball of the summer tournament Euro 2020 (played in 2021). It seems like an amalgamation of some of the company's most popular designs - the Brazuca from the 2014 World Cup in Brazil and the Tango we mentioned earlier, which is a killer combo.

Other than the aesthetics, this ball has a lot of quality features. For instance, the outer layer and bladder materials are top of the line, ensuring durability for years to come. Plus, it's always going to be remembered as the ball that England got to the final with, so it could be worth a few quid later on down the line if you're into collecting football memorabilia. 

With a name like this, you can bet that training is in this balls nature. The Pitch Team ball from Nike is made to be played, thanks to its robust and durable double TPU outer layer. Therefore, it should stay in shape for years to come without ever fraying or falling out of form. 

Moreover, the bladder component is made from the trusted rubber material. It's available in two different sizes, as well as three other colourways. All options are pretty loud and bright, meaning they have a modern aesthetic and are better for playing in dark conditions. 

The last of our indoor options, and another product from the trusted Mitre, is the Ultimatch. It's the perfect ball for use in sports halls, gymnasiums and on any other laminate surface. Thanks to the luminous yellow, it's high in visibility, which is handy when the halls are bright, and the players wear various colours. 

Furthermore, it has a new and improved 20 patch design which helps improve the shape of the ball. Not only that, it's available in a couple of different sizes, and all for a very reasonable price.

The first version of the Adidas Tango was released in 1978 for the World Cup in Argentina, and it was affectionately named after the famous dance. Since then, it's become a classic in the world of football and is considered by many as the ultimate option for those who prefer the retro style. 

However, over the years, the ball has seen some upgrades. Mainly in materials, so don't be surprised to see the use of TPU instead of leather and a butyl bladder. Thankfully, they've not once altered design, and let's hope it stays that way.  

While Mitre was once a big name in the football game, to those who don't have their finger on the pulse, it might've seemed that they had disappeared. But when a football has over 11,000 positive reviews on Amazon, you know they're still doing something right.

The Impel is the perfect training football. It's durable thanks to the TPU outer, plus there's even an EVA foam backing, giving the ball a good cushion. The 30 panels are durable and help shape retention, but most importantly, it's an absolute steal!

Sondico is one of those companies that is hardly ever the first choice, but when they play with one of their products, they're happily surprised. In a way, it's kind of like when you're handed a packet of Seabrooks crisps. What we're trying to say is, they're criminally undervalued. 

The ball is built from a classic needle felt outer layer and is available in size 4 or 5. Word of warning, it comes deflated, so you'll want to make sure you have a pump handy. That said, at such a low, you can probably afford to pick one of those up as well. 

Solid footballs that come in small sizes are surprisingly difficult to come across these days. Whatever happened to the Nike Scorpion balls? Anyway, thankfully, Meteor has carried on the tradition, and their range comes in sizes from 1 - 5, all with reputable components.

The ball's outer layer is made from PVC, and although it's not as dynamic as TPU due to its rigidness, it's still more than good enough. Plus, it has a higher-end butyl bladder, meaning it should stay in good nick for a while.

Modern footballs are plagued with inconsistencies when it comes to flight. While this might make it more entertaining when shots are raining down on the goalkeeper, it can also cost players who play long balls, whip in corners or take long-range shots, as they consistently struggle to find their target. 

With Nike's Flight football, the company has tried to minimise this risk somewhat. The design on the one-panel outer layer gives a 30% truer flight than its Nike predecessor. That said, it's going to cost you a pretty penny to get that precision. 

Here, we have our first indoor ball. It's manufactured by a company in the USA known for their top-quality goods, and their speciality is balls. The design is built with a durable felt cover and hand-stitched panels to ensure it can really take a kicking. 

Sadly, though, we do have a couple of issues. For example, it's only available in size 5, meaning it's not an option for younger children. Add that to the fact that we're unable to find out what the bladder material is. Plus, it's pretty darn expensive. 

While its name may give you the feeling that it should be reserved for only the showpiece occasions, this offering from Puma is a pretty nifty ball to have lying around. The design comes in many sizes, perfect for a range of age groups.

Additionally, the design is available in various colourways, however, we're smitten with the white, rose and ocean. Sadly, though, some users have found that the valve on the ball isn't the best quality, which can see it deflating more often than it should.
