One World Play Project Debuts Limited Edition Size 1 One World Futbol

New Size 1 Soccer Balls are Mini and Mighty, Packing All the Fun in a Smaller Package

BERKELEY, Calif., March 1, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, One World Play Project announced the release of a limited batch of size 1 One World Futbols—ultra-durable soccer balls that never need a pump and never go flat, even when punctured. The size 1 balls are part of an exclusive production available for a limited time.

  Small, But Mighty 

The size 1 One World Futbols are the latest addition to the One World Futbol family. These mini versions of our original balls are still packed with the playful magic you know and love. The size 1 soccer balls are great for all ages, especially smaller children (ages 2-5), and can easily travel with you—the perfect play partner for a spontaneous game or adventure on the go!

The size 1 One World Futbols are part of the One World Play Project "Buy & Give" model. With every purchase you make, a portion of proceeds help support our Play Projects Program—focused on providing organizations and initiatives with funding for specific resources to enable play for youth living in disadvantaged communities. Each play project is focused on a distinct need:

Equipment: provide tools (e.g. balls, sneakers, rackets, uniforms)
Infrastructure: fund areas and facilities (e.g. playgrounds, fields, courts, lighting)
Programming: support programs with specific focus (e.g. health awareness, life skills)
Post-Emergency Relief Assistance: give aid to programs that need play equipment or utilizing play as part of relief efforts following an emergency (e.g. natural disaster, violent conflict or humanitarian crisis)

For more information and to purchase the size 1 One World Futbol, visit our Play Shop.
