Indeed, the official ball of the FIFA World Cup 2006, the Adidas Teamgeist or ‘team spirit’ is a rolling masterpiece with years of research under its seams.



The Teamgeist surprisingly has only 14 sewn panels, as compared to other soccer balls that have 26 or 32, giving it a much smoother surface. It’s a treat to kick the ultra-smooth ball as it swings to a greater extent. Carved out of thermal bonding technology, the Teamgeist is the roundest ball ever produced. The waterproof ball guarantees impeccable performance with only 0.01 percent weight increase when wet.
