Basketballs

1st & 2nd Grade:  27.5"  (Youth Size)
3rd - 6th Grade (Girls): 28.5"  (Intermediate Size) This is the size Girls will utilize in HS as well

Not all basketballs are made alike and there is a difference between indoor and outdoor basketballs. **Please put your child’s name on their ball in-case they would lose it.   

Below are some links to different styles and brands for comparison:

INDOOR:
Wilson Evolution:  Probably the best indoor ball available in the 27.5, 28.5 and 29.5 sizes.  
Dicks Sporting Goods Wilson NBA
The Wilson Evolution is a good investment if your child will be playing years of indoor basketball.  Reminder that once they start the 3rd Grade they will be using the same size ball for many years.

OUTDOOR:
Spalding NBA Street/Varsity/FastBreak:  Top Rated outdoor basketball
Dicks Sporting Goods Spalding NBA

The outdoor basketballs are typically made of rubber to hold up to the asphalt and concrete surfaces that they are played on.   They typically have a different "bounce" indoors and outdoors based on the surface they are played on.  Indoor basketballs should never be used outdoors or it will reduce their quality.
