Technical information

Why is the Tarmak K500 ball the ball your child needs to discover basketball?
Basketball is a sport of dexterity and skill.
To help your child discover it, we have designed a ball that is 30% lighter than a ball of the same size. This allows them to more easily make their first baskets and passes.
The ball's cover is covered with a layer of foam to make it softer than a classic cover. This makes this ball less traumatic than another ball and therefore promotes confidence.

The K500 ball? is the perfect ball to play with the Hoop 500 Easy!
The ideal ball to play with the Hoop 500 Easy (the Tarmak basketball hoop that can be installed anywhere) is the K500 Tarmak ball.

The K500 is a size 4 basketball that is lighter than a classic ball. Adapted to the size of the Hoop 500 Easy rim, it also allows each player, especially the smallest ones, to shoot further and further!

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
Size 6: Boy from 11 and 12 years old / Category U13 Benjamins
Size 6: Girls - Women all ages from 11 years old
Size 7: Boy - Man all ages from 13 years old

For a good bounce, to what pressure should you inflate your K500 basketball?
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.
We advise you to inflate your K500 ball to: 0.35 bar.

Good game!

What height of basketball hoop should I choose?
The regulatory height of a basketball hoop is 3.05m (height of the hoop).
If you are looking for a basketball backboard for a child, you should choose an adjustable basket with a height adjustment system.
For the little ones, 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 2.60m baskets.
After 10 years old, girls and boys play on 3.05m basketball backboards.
