A brand new rendition of the oldest cup competition in world football is about to commence this weekend, and ready for the occasion, Mitre unveil the new official match ball for the 21/22 campaign.
Cup upsets, the excitement of the draw, David vs Goliath fixtures, superstars playing on churned up pitches in front of hundreds instead of thousands… it can only be the magic of the FA Cup, football’s oldest cup competition in the world. And for the next six months it’s set to entertain us all once again, with the first round proper set to get underway this weekend, starting with AFC Sudbury entertaining Colchester United on Friday 5 November. Expect fireworks right there…
And of course, ready for the big kick off, Mitre have unveiled the official match ball for the 21/22 season, with a fresh design containing cutting edge technology. The Mitre Delta Max features a debossed Hyperflow surface with textured dimples to deliver consistent flight through the air, while the panels are joined by Hyperseam technology, eliminating water uptake – essential for football in England.
Then, for maximum power transfer from boot to ball, the ball also boasts Mitre’s latest Dual Hypoerfoam construction – layers of highly elastic foam with laminating rubber in between. Smashing home a 90th minute winner never felt so good.
