Ghee Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Looking at basketballs for my son. I noticed that some state a size (like circumference) and others give a letter/number for size. What size is a B6, how much difference in that and a B7? This is why I detested shopping for soccer balls LOL, all the weird (to me) sizing. *Can you tell I'm online shopping today? It's raining and I'm trying to plan out a new way to organize the kid books/games and looking for DS's birthday gifts..* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tasia Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 That link explains it well. For reference, the league that my kids play in never uses the 27.5" balls. All girls divisions and boys up to 6th grade use 28.5" and boys in 7th and higher use 29.5". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
