I think it's stupid any old ball can be used in our league.
Why the oca haven't adopted one type per club baffles me

I'm gonna start borrowing oppos used match balls and cut them open for a look

Just opened up one of our club match balls,(I'm not a fan, so wanted to see why) and it's just solid re constituted rubber with bits of stone, plastic etc!
I've never seen anything like it to be honest.

The balls made up of three parts only
The outer leather?
A plastic cup
And the re constituted rubber

Is this more common these days, or is this just a cheap rip off bat breaker??


I'm shocked to hear this being done by any manufacturer.  You need to show this to your club/league .

To me, it's a ball that's cost pennies to manufacture.
Someone's making a huge mark up on these.
Our club pays a small fortune for them

I can make them literally swing round corners, but I know that's not right.
the balls are also bat and hand breakers
