Let's review. Balls in the past ten years:
- 2004: Playground balls and large inflated balls
- 2006: Poof balls
- 2008: Track balls
- 2009: Orbit balls (up to you if you actually consider this a ball)
- 2010: Soccer balls
- 2012: Foam basketballs
- 2014: Exercise balls
So, if you ignore Orbit balls (or the entire 2009 season

), there have not been back to back ball games since before the 3v3 era. I won't go so far as to rule out balls this year, but it is highly unlikely.
Sorry for the back to back post but these are completely different topics.
