unfortunately, most school's soccer seasons are just about half way through at this point (which was the reason i quit soccer... can't play and do robotics at the same time
). As for cheap soccer balls, don't go for puma. they're more expensive than some other brands that aren't the 'designer' soccer labels. make sure you get game balls... notice the glossy finish on the ball we're using. practice balls normally don't have the coating, so they'll interact differently with each other compared to the glossy balls. hope this helps!
