What makes the Tarmak Wizzy the ideal ball for children learning to play basketball?
Basketball requires dexterity and agility.
To make it easier for your child to learn to play basketball, we created a ball that is 18% lighter than other same-sized balls. This makes it easier for them to score and pass successfully.
The outer cover has a foam layer, making it softer than a standard ball. Little hands won't be hurt, which will help your child build confidence.

What is the Wizzy ball? The perfect ball for playing with the Hoop.
The Tarmak Wizzy is the perfect ball for playing with the Hoop (the basketball hoop from Tarmak that can be set up anywhere).
The Wizzy is a size 5 basketball that is lighter than a classic ball. It’s the right size for the Hoop and means that any player, particularly younger children, can shoot from farther away!
The Wizzy balls range is designed to match the Hoops range so you can be completely coordinated.

What ball should you use?
For durability, choose a rubber ball. For good feel for the ball, choose a leather or synthetic ball.
For good bounce, how much should you inflate your basketball?
A basketball that is overinflated or underinflated will deliver a sub-par playing experience.
The recommended pressure is clearly marked on the ball.
For more precise inflation, you should use a pump with a pressure gauge.
At Tarmak, we recommend a pressure of 9 psi.
Enjoy your game!

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

Response of the brand
Hello Arun,
Thank you so much for writing in with your feedback. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused.
I would suggest you to take you product to your nearest store and get the air pressure checked. Air pressure allows your basketball to keep its round shape and remain hard and bouncy. Our stores will be happy to exchange (as long as the product is in a saleable condition or if there is any manufacturing defect).
In case of any further comment / feedback, please do not hesitate to reach us on care.india@decathlon.com.
Thanks and regards,
