Technical information
What pressure should you inflate your basketball to?
An overinflated or underinflated basketball does not allow you to have the best sensations in the game.
The recommended pressure of a basketball is clearly indicated on the ball by each manufacturer.
Ideally, you should use a pump with a pressure gauge to be precise.
At Tarmak, here is the pressure that we recommend: 0.62 bar. Have a good game!
What size balloon should I choose?
The size of the ball depends on the age or gender of the player.
Size 1: From 2 years old
Size 3 to size 5: Girl or boy from 4 to 6 years old / Category U7 Baby basket (depending on levels and clubs)
Size 5: Boy and girl from 7 to 10 years old / Category U9 Mini chicks and U11 chicks

What ball to play basketball with?
If you want a very durable ball, opt for a rubber ball. If you want a ball with a good touch, a leather or synthetic ball is what you need.
What height of basketball hoop should I choose?
The regulatory height of a basketball hoop is 3.05 m (height of the hoop).
If you are looking for a basketball backboard for a child, you should choose an evolving basket with a height adjustment system.
For the smallest, there is no official height, so you can choose the height that suits them.
Then up to 10 years old, children play in clubs on 2.60 m baskets.
After 10 years old, girls and boys play on 3.05 m basketball backboards
