On top of this is a polyurethane foam layer, roughly one millimeter thick. Two compact layers of polyurethane provide the ball with very high elasticity, resistance to abrasion, and return to its original shape immediately after the kick (tests ensure that the ball would retain its shape even if fired at a steel wall 2,000 times at 50 km per hour). The technology and the materials used were studied to make the flight paths of the ball more Predictable, even if the subtle deformity created when it is kicked Is of course an unpredictable factor.

Materials :
Adidas’s Fevernova soccer ball was the official ball of the Korea Japan, 2002 FIFA world cup. The adidas Fevernova was the first World Cup Match Ball since 1978 to break with the traditional Tango design introduced in 1978. It is three millimeters thick (11 layers). This includes a special foam layer with tiny gas filled balloons imbedded in a syntactic foam. The foam is based on an abrasion resistant polyurethane made by Bayer called Impranil® polyurethane. The outer cover of the ball consists of a combination of special synthetic polystyrenes (polyurethane) and natural rubber. Embedded within the layers are equal sized, highly elastic, exceptionally resistant gas-filled microcells. The inner lining consists of a tightly woven network of knitted, synthetic Raschel fabric. The spongy layer has high modulus of compression, with a good elastic memory. These layers give the Fevernova TM improved rebound characteristics, which convert foot strike into ball acceleration. The outer layer of the ball is made of a particularly so that the ball can withstand exceptionally tough treatment. All of this combines to give the ball greater durability. According to Adidas, the surface of the new ball converts applied energy evenly at every point. Theoretically, this gives a more calculable, flight path with advanced players. The Adidas Fevernova TM is made to meet the lower end of FIFA regulations governing circumference and the upper limit of weight , in which smaller and heavier sphere has a more accurate trajectory.
About Fevernova :
The ball Fevernova has been obtained as a result of three years of work to improve the previous Tricolore ball at the research center in south of Germany.
The new design is based on Asian culture and are not similar to its predecessors. This ball featured a refined syntactic foam layer, to give the ball superior performance characteristics, and a three-layer knitted chassis, allowing for a more precise and predictable flight path. For the World Cup matches has been presented more than 2,500 balls Fevernova, and later around the world has been sold about six million replicas.

Weight (gr) : 380 – 392
Has a signature : Yes
Materials :
The official match ball of the 1954 FIFA World Cup was composed of 18 panels with zigzag edges, perfectly interlocked to each other. (The same panel structure can be seen on many Mitre balls even today.) The ball was completely hand sewn and no longer had laces -just like its predecessor, the Superball from the 1950 World Cup. The colour of the ball was not dark brown any more, rather an attractive yellowish or hell orange. This made the ball more visible during rainy matches where the pitch contained mud. We can see lots of photographs in different newspapers and magazines from 1954 where the players are portrayed with the Swiss World Champion balls as this ball became by far the best selling World Cup ball compared to its predecessors.
About Swiss World Champion Match Ball :
this ball comes from the pre-adidas historical match ball set, it is the exact reproduction of the original Swiss World Champion balls as used at the 1954 World Cup in Switzerland.

Weight (gr) : 420 – 430
Has a signature : Yes
Materials :
The ball was designed by the Adidas Innovation Team and the Molten Corporation and is made by Adidas, which has provided the balls used in all World Cup matches since the 1970 World Cup when the Telstar was introduced. The +Teamgeist ball differs from previous balls in having just 14 curved panels (making the ball topologically equivalent to a truncated octahedron), rather than the 32 that have been standard since 1970. Like the 32 panel Roteiro which preceded it, the +TeamGeist panels are bonded together, rather than stitched. It is claimed to be rounder and to perform more uniformly regardless of where it is hit, and being almost waterproof, it does not get heavier in wet weather.
About Teamgeist :
With the name of “Teamgeist” the creators of the ball wanted to remind that one of the most important components of success in World Cup it’s “team spirit”. Translated from the German word team means “command” and geist – “spirit”.

Ball Name : Azteca

Weight (gr) : 380 – 410
Has a signature : Yes
Materials :
A completely new model was developed for the World Cup in Mexico. The Azteca Mexico was a hand-sewn ball, and for the first time, synthetic material, rather than leather was used to produce it. The ball consisted of an outer polyurethane wearing coat and three lower layers, which mutually complemented one another with their different “Adicron” structures. These were intended to ensure the ball’s resistance, ability to retain its shape and its waterproof properties. With its never-before-achieved performance on hard ground, at high altitude, and in wet conditions, Azteca represented a massive leap forward for the game. Its elaborately decorated design was inspired by the hosting nation’s native Aztec architecture and murals.
About Questra :
Azteca ball – first ball which has been made of fully synthetic material. Triad used in the design of the ball, where were painted like Aztecs frescoes. The Adidas Azteca ball was quite an elegant ball with revolutionary design but even though it was still composed by 32 hand sewn panels.

Ball Name : The Federale 102
Artist Name : Fatemeh Zarei
Size : 5
Weight (gr) : 380 – 420
Has a signature : Yes
Materials :
The Federale 102 ball was composed by 13 polygonal panels which were cut and perfectly fitted together by hand sewing. Most of the classic balls at that time were 12 panel models (like the ones used 4 years ago in the first World Cup) but the Federale 102 brought an invention of having the laces on a separate panel to inflate the balls. The bladder was enclosed by lace with 6 rows. For the very first time the leather laces of a World Cup ball were replaced by brown cotton,very similar to the ones used on shoes. This represents a small detail but an important improvement, as well. As cotton is much softer than any leather,this encouraged players to head the ball more.
About The Federale 102 :
As the second World Cup was approaching,the fascist regime of Mussolini became so powerful that Italy was chosen to be the host of the 1934 FIFA World Cup.The strong nationalism requested that the balls used in the tournament had to be produced in Italy. In the beginning of the 20th century the majority of footballs were made in Britain and were exported to different countr ies where footba ll became more and more popular and equipment was badly needed. But as previously mentioned, the Italian political power insisted on using Italian made balls for the first World Cup to be hosted in Europe.

Has a signature : Yes
Materials :
The 1978 World Cup came back to America, being hosted by Argentina. In respect of the official ball, this edition represented a great milestone, because Adidas launched a model with a revolutionary design: the Tango – inspired by the classic dance of Argentina. This ball was identically constructed to the previous World Cup ball, the Telstar from 1974. It was composed of 32 hand sewn leather panels (20 hexagonal and 12 pentagonal) and covered by the Durlast coating (applied with the same thickness of the 1974 Telstar) to
make the ball more resistant and waterproof. The design consisted of 20 black and promptly curved triangles, each one printed onto the white coloured surface of each hexagonal panel. Since the pentagonal panels were white coloured too, the triangles created a series of black and elegant circles on a white surface. When the ball was rotating, a nice effect was created by the black circles, which was visually very attractive.
About Tango Durlast:
For World Cup 1978 has been created ball Tango, which according to the authors should reflect the elegance, dynamism and passion. The design used 20 triads, create an optical impression of 12 identical circles. One advantage of Tango compared to other balls was considered as improved resistance to weathering.
