What is top level equipment in family football? This game is played week after week in a variety of games with all types of footballs and accessory equipment. What is the best equipment to have and how much of it is truly necessary for a team that plays family football seriously.

The most important piece of equipment is the football. For serious players only leather official NFL footballs, like the Spalding football or Rawlings football, will suffice. To play the game properly three of these footballs should be available to play. They must be in good condition and properly inflated at 13PSI.

Supporting these three footballs is selected accessory equipment. First and foremost is the air pump. A double action high volume pump is recommended. It has a large hose and a valve adapter and can keep any football properly inflated. Second, a reliable pressure gauge is also recommended. It should have a release button to adjust the leather football to the proper pressure.

Third, the well equipped family football team needs at least six inflating needles and a suitable ball repair kit. These items will ensure proper football inflation and also seal leaks or punctures in all valve inflated footballs.

All these items – footballs and accessory equipment – can be stored and carried to games in one or more nylon ball totes. These bags come in a variety of colors and are made of durable nylon mesh with a nylon draw string. They are ideal for carrying the equipment of any family football team.
