What makes the Tarmak K 500 Basketball Light Size 4 the ideal ball for your child to learn to play basketball?
Basketball is a sport that requires dexterity and agility.
To make learning easier for children, this ball is 30% lighter than other balls of the same size. This makes it easier for them to pass and score successfully.
The outer cover has a foam layer, making it softer than a standard ball. Little hands won’t be hurt, which helps your child build confidence.

What net height should you choose?
The official height of a basketball hoop is 3.05 m (rim height).
If you want a basketball hoop for your child, you need something that will grow with them.
There isn’t an official height for younger kids, so you can choose whatever suits them best.
Up to the age of 10, club hoops are set at 2.60 m.
After the age of 10, both girls and boys play with hoops set at 3.05 m.
