Champion Sports Plastic Softball Set, 6 Assorted Colors

Balls are good. Package came open missing two balls so obviously not happy about that.

Cumple con la descripicón, tiene buenos acabados...

I was looking for some indoor balls to pitch at my 2.5 year old son who loves swinging his plastic bat. The heavy rubber/foam that usually comes with most sets are a little too small making it difficult to make contact, and when there is a hit, the ball goes a little further than I would prefer (i.e. over the fence, upstairs, etc). Enter the Champion softball set. Since each ball has holes, it increases air drag and reduces the distance traveled even after solid contact. Furthermore, it is the perfect size (softball size) and thus large enough to give my son more chances of making solid contact. Boy, he loves the sound of his plastic bat cracking after a good hit! Be wary of ones that are "golf ball" sized, which is way too small. I believe that if a child is able to hit it, it will bring more joy to him/her and encourage persistence. The colors are super bright and that makes it easy to locate after batting practice. I am not sure yet on the UV impact as I have not left them outside for an extended period of time yet. However, I can definitely comment on durability. I once accidentally stepped on one and the ball caved in. I was panicking because I didn't have ice cream to cheer up my son if I had to tell him one of his favorite toys was crushed by my big right foot. To my surprised, I was able to easily pop it back into shape with no cracks or the dreaded white plastic creased line! Awesome plastic they are using!!! And no, they do not have any odor to them if that's what you're thinking. Love this set. I saw this at some toy/hobby place priced individually at $3 a ball. Of course that's great if you want to choose your own colors. So yes, this is a bargain at under $8 for a set of six. Did I mention I bought 18 or 3 sets? Perfect for pitching to my son for a good amount of time before having to collect the balls again. If my son 20 years from now goes to the Majors or is a MLB homerun champion, It's because of this softball set!!!!

Nice set of practice balls, softball size.

Me encantaron!!
