The Water Football Built for Beach and Pool
The Waboba 9" Football is a full-sized water football engineered to perform where regular footballs fail. A waterproof outer skin keeps the ball throwing true whether it comes off wet hands at the shoreline or gets pulled out of the pool between plays. The non-slip grip lets you spiral it with confidence even when conditions get messy.
Waboba started in Sweden in 2005 with the invention of the original ball that bounces on water. The brand has spent two decades building products that get people of all ages outside and playing until the sun goes down, and the 9" Football is the workhorse of that lineup.
Construction
The ball is built around a rubber bladder for consistent pressure and shape retention session after session. A durable polyester cover wraps the bladder and bonds to the waterproof skin layer, giving the ball its grip texture and protecting the structure from sand, salt, and repeated water contact. At 9 inches, it matches the feel of a junior-to-regulation football so the muscle memory from the backyard carries right over to the beach.
Who It Is For
Rated for ages 8 and up, the Waboba 9" Football works for a wide range of players: kids learning to throw a spiral, teenagers running routes in the shallows, and adults who want a proper game on the sand without worrying about ruining the ball. It travels easily and needs no inflation pump or special care between trips.
