Jabulani-FIFA-2010

FIFA World Cup 2010 is on it’s peak now. Design and the specifications of the Match Ball of the world cup have always been special factors for any world cup.

This world cup’s match ball is named as Jabulani and it is the production from Adidas.

Jabulani means ‘rejoice in Zulu. If you translate literally, it means to celebrate.

Jabulani ball has 11 colours on it to represent 11 players in the team, 11 official languages of South Africa, 11 communities in South Africa. And of course the final will be held on 11th of July. :)

These balls are produced in China and the raw materials are imported from Kerala-India and Taiwan.

Jabulani is the first official  match ball that is moulded by to keep the complete spherical shape.
