A FIFA-approved match ball must weigh between 410-450 grams, have a circumference of 68-70 cm, and bounce 120-160 cm when dropped from 2 meters. Modern match balls are thermally bonded rather than stitched, giving them a more consistent surface. A professional player can kick a ball at over 130 km/h. The ball used in the 2022 World Cup contained a sensor that transmitted position data 500 times per second.
