Additional Information
Basketball sizes vary based on age, gender, and skill level. The official basketball size used by the NBA is 29.5 inches (size 7) in circumference. This is the same size used in all men's college and high school basketball leagues. The WNBA uses a slightly smaller ball measuring 28.5 (size 6) inches in circumference. For international play, specifically FIBA, the basketball used is known as a Molten GL7 for men and a Molten GL6 for women. These basketballs typically feature two different colors and are slightly larger, with a circumference of 30.7 inches for the men's ball and 29 inches for the women's ball. Boys in middle school (ages 12 to 14) use a 28.5-inch (size 6) ball, as do all women and girls aged 12 and up. For anyone, male or female, aged 9 to 11, a ball size of 27.5 (size 5) inches in circumference is recommended, and this is the most commonly used ball size in youth basketball leagues. Boys and girls aged 4 to 8 use a basketball measuring between 22 inches and 24.5 inches in circumference, depending on the individual's hand size, which can be determined by a coach or parent by measuring from the base of the individual's palm to the tip of their middle finger. An NBA basketball must be inflated to a pressure of 7.5 to 8.5 PSI. The WNBA uses the same pressure regulations. In the NCAA, inflation requirements are given in weight, with the men's ball having a maximum weight of 22 ounces and the women's ball having a maximum weight of 20 ounces. In FIBA play, the official rules state that the ball "must be inflated to an air pressure such that, when dropped onto the playing surface from a height of about 1,800 mm measured from the bottom of the ball, it will rebound to a height between 1,200 mm and 1,400 mm, measured from the top of the ball."
