Gilbert Official Rugby Ball, Sirius Match, Wales Team

Wales has won the Six Nations Championship 5 times. In 2019, the Welsh team won the Grand Slam. Slam (when a team is victorious against all its opponents during the same year). She is currently 3rd in the world rankings.

Gilbert is proud to present his new match ball: the SIRIUS ball.

Its name comes from SIRIUS, the 7th planet of the solar system, representing the 7th generation of Gilbert Match balls for the World Cup.

This balloon is made up of several technological innovations:

-G-XV rubber coating.

-Hypernova grip with star-shaped studs of varying heights to improve grip, help disperse water and provide optimum aerodynamics.

-Air-Loc bladder made of copolymer.

And still the Truflight valve.

The SIRIUS Wales ball is the new official ball of the Wales team for all its competitions and incorporates the colours of Wales with the WRU logo.
