Gatland: Webb Ellis balls give extra confidence

Published: 20th Oct 2009

Warren Gatland, National Team Head Coach, Welsh Rugby Union:

"Webb Ellis balls have tremendous grip in both wet and dry conditions. This suits a fast, expansive game where knock-ons are reduced and continuity is maintained. The balls are also extremely accurate when kicking out of hand and at goal, with success rate percentages reaching 90%.

 

"The Webb Ellis balls are very consistent which gives us the confidence to go for those extra yards kicking into touch or to give the final try-scoring pass."

A Brand New Wales Replica? Get Away!

Published: 30th Sep 2009

Rugby fans want to collect souvenirs to support their team, but sometimes the price of traditional replica balls can be out of reach for younger supporters. As usual, Webb Ellis is on hand with a world-first at the cutting-edge of product design and style. 
Webb Ellis is proud to introduce the Official Wales Away Ball – a unique product with a recommended retail price of only £13.99 for sizes 5, 4 and 3. Midi and mini versions are also available.
With eye-catching fluro graphics, the Official Wales Away Ball is designed to match the Wales away match jersey which reflects the original colour of the St. David’s flag – a true momento of Welsh heritage.
With a revamped and enhanced rubber compound and improved all-round grip from the new pimple configuration, the Official Wales Away Ball is also perfect for training, especially given that the hi-vis graphics work fantastically under floodlights.
Fully endorsed by the Welsh Rugby Union, the Official Wales Away Ball is an essential for all Welsh fans in preparation for the forthcoming Autumn Internationals and Six Nations Championships.
