Many complaints because doesn’t come with a needle, but who does not have a needle? On the other hand, the little pump is practical even to keep in the car when needed.
Kermit –
Good quality, handy pump too.
Brianda Basilio –
Value for money is on point. The quality of the ball is good. Nice size and grip for my 8 year old. The appearance of the ball and detail is nice too.

A great product for youngsters to get some experience with a football! This is the third one I’ve bought for my grandchildren.It’s also nice that it comes with an air pump to reinflate the ball !!!
Dgoth –
Football came deflated in a Franklin branded box and a hand pump, as shown, but without the inflating needle. Nothing is in protective wrapping or sealed bags etc but the box seemed well-taped ie not as if the needle was included but lost in transit. Therefore, I cannot speak to the quality of the football inflated, as I am not the type to have these needles in stock in my own garage. I am probably using the wrong word for ‘needle’ lol. I am assuming that the football itself is fine but will edit post if not.
Michelle –
My grandson loves football and went to his first Green Bay Packer game with his dad last fall. He’s been a bigger fan ever since!Easy to inflate and good size for 8 year old. Great design!

This was a gift for my nephew and he was excited for it. The pump is very convenient.
Charlene Moyer –
nice little football and seems to be durable.
Mary –
He loves it
Shortman –
The grip is UNREAL
Andrew Hampton –
Definitely worth it, it’s a lot of fun to launch this thing cause its smaller than a NFL football. Needle worked for my basketball too
Jack –
Well made. He’s still playing with it today.
jason pagliughi –
It was an amazing Christmas gift that he uses almost daily. It is small and perfect for his 9 year old hands. WE LOVE IT! Highly recommend.
Dayna De’Anne –
Youth size football! Looks great! The needle is inside the air pump! I read reviews saying they didn’t see one- read the sticker on the air pump. Recommend!
Bee –
Bought for my 8 year old nephew, he loved it!
Tonya Canter –
A little disappointed that the football is too big for my 9 year olds hands, even mine and I’m 47.
really good –
This football is perfect for little hands
Amazon Customer –
Chiefs loving fans from Kansas City. This football is great and a big hit!!
Ann –
Great team football. Comes with inflation pump. Needle is located in the pump. My 8 and 12 year old love this ball, slightly smaller than a basic football but great size for smaller hands. No fading of the logo with lots of wear and tear.
Boosky –
The quality of the football itself is good. However, the enclosed air pump seems flimsy and like so many of the other reviewers commented, the inflating needle was missing! Fortunately, I’m a pack rat and had a spare one on hand, but it’s really disappointing that a key component is missing – how hard can this be to get it right – especially with so many customers providing the same feedback?
Randi Singleton –
I found the needle under this sticker guys!
Darlene Provo –
I ordered 3 balls from this same company. On different days. The balls are really nice, they come deflated.However, 2 of them came without the needle…the pump is useless without it!! I thought it was just an oversight so I ordered the 3rd ball and wasted $5 on a worthless pump! I could not send them back or wait for another delivery because I would have upset grandsons!!!So order the balls(they are awesome) without the pumps/needle and buy a cheaper pump at Walmart… that’s where I had to go.
Amazon Customer –
Finally found where there needed was, need brighter lable, thought was not sent. But found it.
Susan R Anderson –
There was not a needle included in packaging to inflate the football.
lordoflies –
This product would make a good gift for a young Bengals fan.
Jessica McNulty –
The football is as described and appears to be well made and vibrant in color. The problem is that I did not receive a pump and as it arrived flat, I had to scramble to get to Dicks to buy a pump before it closed so that I could gift this to the birthday boy the following afternoon straight from work without having to gift it deflated. I ended up spending twice the purchasing price on a pump that I won’t likely ever use again.Reading the previous reviews, others appear to have not received the needle. I don’t receive the needle, nor did I receive the pump. Had I received a pump, I could have found a needle around the house or even cleaned the ink from a ball point pen and used the ink holder to inflate if need be.I did email Franklin Sports, twice, and have yet to receive a response two weeks later
LISA –
Ordered as a Christmas gift for my nephew. It came flat with a pump that was broken and not in a gif table box. I was disappointed in the delivery of the gift.
GJ –
This football is just the right size for my grandson who loves to pass and is 6 years old. It is also very attractive. Recommend.
aotoole –

Jeaniet72 –

Laurie Werth –
Ordered this for my grandson for Xmas and he absolutely loves it
Ben and Liz Brewer –
We have had this ball for over two years and kept outside in the cold and hot weather. It has held up air this whole time. I love that it comes with a pump but haven’t had to use it other than pumping it up the first time when it arrived.
DK –
The football comes deflated and with a pump. But the pump is missing the needle. Thankfully I checked this BEFORE the child’s birthday party. Otherwise it would have been bad news.
C Easley –
The needle was missing. I had to go out and purchase one because I needed to inflate the football right away. The pump was a little on the flimsy side too. Other than that, the football was fine.
Jason JBomb Ferguson. –
Wasn’t what I thought it was gonna be. Thought it was closer to regulation size , guess I didn’t read the fine print. Good quality. Just tiny.
Sheila –
Good
John –
Cool design on the football and it comes with a pump and needle to air the football up, easy to do great for any Titan fan you have in your family
Richard Pierce –
It sure would have been Nice If The Needle for the Pump was included with it (as SHOWN) I posted this earlier an I need to Apologize The Needle does come with it , its inside the pump handle . Sorry
ndc –
This ball was a perfect size for the hands of my 8 year old grandson. Having a pump included was a great feature!
mike –
My son got this as a gift for his friend who’s a Steelers fan. The ball comes deflated in a bag so not suitable for gifting as is. The pump was missing the needle. The pump itself is pretty flimsy, but fortunately we have our own pump and needles.We’re pumped it up, put it in a gift bag (without the pump), and the ball itself looks fine.
Cindy –
My granddaughter got this football for her brother and he loves it. I would recommend.
Amazon Customer –
Bought this for my grandson for Christmas. I love that it came with its own pump. The colors are bold and true and I just know he will love it.
JVAL –
My kids love it and I’m stoked about it too I had a Franklin ball when I was younger now my kids can have the same great memories I have…It’s exactly as shown no needle for airing it up tho but who doesn’t have one…
Amazon Customer –
The football is of great quality and our son loved it for Christmas. The inflator for the football is very cheap quality and the needle broke off after the first use.
Amanda –
Good ball for kids.
R. George –
Great ball for kids. It’s like the Hutch ones we had as kids. Smaller than the ones they use in recreation, but these are easy for kids and fun to throw far.
T. Shaw –
Pretty cool. Love how the pin is locked into the pump so it won’t gel lost.
Penny Hatcher –
My grandson loves the Eagles and this was a perfect Christmas gift.
Karen –
No complaints
Desiree21 –
Got this to bling it out and it came out great. Good size.
Micheal R. Schlicht –
Football showed up ahead of schedule and is exactly what I wanted! Thanx for the speedy delivery!
Amazon Customer –
Heavy duty and looks as advertised
Amazon Customer –
It took me a couple minutes to figure out the the needle was in the handle lol. Maybe I’ll save someone else some confusion.
Rebekah Bolognone –
This came without the needle to pump up the football. Thankfully we had a bike pump and the football itself is great. My son loves it.
Deanthedream –
There was no air filling piece in end of pump.
DCissna –
Purchased for playing football with grandkids in the 8-13 year old range. Right size for them to throw and catch.

Marsh –
Nice football
John R. Schaefer –
Were having fun
Unhappy customer –
My grandson will Love it
Dennis Collier –
There was no needle for the pump!
Joe in Denver –
Bought for 7 year olds birthday. Good size ball for the age. Firm, not like a nerf, but not as hard as a real ball
Karen J. Wozniak –
It is a great looking football. However, I received it deflated. I imagine it may have something to do with saving on shipping because the box would be smaller. They did include a pump but no needle. I had to go out and purchase a needle to pump up the ball so I could wrap it. True, an inexpensive item to purchase, but an inconvenience none the less.
Tonia –
Perfect for my son’s small hands. He loves it!!
William Denzer –
This is the perfect size ball for 6 to 8 year old. They can actually rip the ball well and throw it without it slipping out of their hands.
Terrie –
Pump did not come with a needle. It is a gift so the needle is important. The “box” it shipped in had gaps in the construction so perhaps the needle fell out. Need to do better.
Ashton Tuck –
our Corgi loves her Dolphins football 🧡🐬 it’s the perfect miniature size for her to carry around on gamedays
Joanna Martinez –
I paid extra to have it overnighted for my son’s day of the reader. There was no pump or needle included. I do not have one at home. The whole point was a last minute thing and now he can’t use it.
CR –
My son loves his football but the graphics have faded/worn off after using the football for 2 weeks. He still uses it everyday but it definitely does not look colorful like it did when he received it.
Stephen S. –
Logo and coloring is well done. Pump is handy with needle storage in the handle. Our 7 y/o grandson liked it.
Lori Carter –
Loved
J –
Son loved it. It is a junior football however, in case you were looking for an adult standard sized football.
Ballqueenmom –
Bought this for my 5 year old grandson! Perfect weight and size for his little hands.
Sharon A. Brown –
Durable Call Grandson he’s a small football to practice when he played flag football for the first time I sure did come in handy went very well and I’m very happy little ball for the price
Sharon –
Our grandson loved it
B –
The print started rubbing off immediately after opening just with touching or setting it down. It’s perfect otherwise.
Cwilson –
Ball and pump can on time however there is no needle included. No way to inflate the ball.
Majkin Cravens –
Great youth sized football. Inflated easily once i figured out the needle was inside the pump. I broke the top of the pump trying to open it though but it still worked fine.
Amazon Customer –
Why does this pump not come with a needle? Stupid thing I’ve ever seen. Guess it will cost me more than the $20.00 I planned on spending.
randonneur91 –
Nice product. Thick material. Had to read the reviews to figure out where the needle could be; thnx to customers who posted. Feel lucky they had the team I wanted. Perfect for playing catch in the house or yard. Highly recommend this ball.
JR –
Bought this for a gift. It arrived 2 days late and only 1 hour before the event. The needle on the pump was missing and had to be thrown away. Football was fine but not inflated. No time to return.
Chicago Bears football –
The team logo was missing part of it. Beings the team logo is simply the letter C and it is missing the top third of it… it looks weird.
jeff k –
cheap Chinese ball and pump but does the job. super overpriced. i paid 20 for it and another 10 to overnight it for my son. cant blame them for the shipping but even the 20 is overkill for this. your paying for the logo
Gail Mezzacapo –
Grandsons birthday gift. Missing needle for the pump.
Nicole –
This football is great for kids – both my five and seven year love it. Only downside is it has to be pumped up more frequently in the cold weather.
Amazon Customer –
Its looks nice but its flat went to full it with the pump it has as soon as the needle touched the hole it snapped at the base soon now I have to go buy a new needle or pump if I can’t find a needle will update whenever I can use it
Donnie –
Nice little football! I bought this so my grandson and I can play catch with. Very durable rubber and great design. My grandson is a KC Chiefs fan and I am a 49ers fan so since I bought the football I get to choose the team lol.
Amazon Customer –
Product may be good but the needle which attaches to the inflator was not included.
Loyd –
The thing I didn’t like about it it came with the pump but not the needle
