How to choose the right Rhythmic Gymnastics Ball

Description

Choosing the right rhythmic gymnastics ball depends on the Gymnast’s age, height & hand size,  generally ranging from 16cm for Beginners, 17cm for Juniors and 18-18.5cm for Seniors. A ball should rest comfortably in the palm without needing to be gripped & in proportion to the Gymnast’s body. Keep in mind that some Coach’s have a preferred size so we also recommend checking with them.
