Overview
Franklin's Grip-Rite 100 junior football is built from deep-pebbled rubber rather than synthetic leather, sized at 10 inches long and 6 inches wide to official junior dimensions. It is sold individually or in 6-ball team packs that include an inflation pump.
This sits below Franklin's Adult 1000 line as a more basic, rubber-cover option aimed at durability over feel. The team pack option with a bundled pump makes it a practical pick for coaches equipping a full squad rather than a single household.
- Official junior size, 10 inches by 6 inches
- Deep-pebbled rubber cover for durability
- Raised pro-style laces for grip
- Available as a single ball or 6-ball team pack with pump
Who it's for
Works for kids and youth teams practicing on grass, concrete or other rough surfaces where a rubber cover holds up better than leather. Not aimed at players wanting a leather game-day feel.
Pros and cons
- Rubber cover built for concrete and grass durability
- Official junior dimensions at 10 by 6 inches
- Team pack of 6 includes a pump for group play
- Rubber cover feels less like a game ball than leather options
Performance notes
Deep-pebbled rubber is the material choice here, and it is what lets this ball take concrete and grass abuse without the wear a synthetic leather cover would show. Raised pro-style laces are added on top of that texture for extra grip when throwing.
