The contact on strikes didn’t feel as dense or solid, which made it less satisfying when hitting longer passes or shots. In comparison, the FA24 version was clearly the better designed ball.

Excellent ball for higher level player
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great ball. Has a nice feel and so far holding up to the wear and tear my HS aged daughter puts it through with her club.
