Make-A-Ball is a program that allows kids to design any sports ball and make it their own. Kids can choose from baseball, softball, football, soccer, volleyball, basketball or hockey. Kids can design their own background, choose from our libraries of backgrounds and clip art, and add their own text and photos. Each ball is what we call “full coverage” meaning that it can be printed edge-to-edge and the artwork covers the entire panel. Kids can use unlimited photos, colors and artwork. The balls are regulation size and come inflated and ready to display. Make-A-Balls are great for gifts, fundraisers, awards, trophies and keepsakes. They are great for senior nights, booster clubs, coaches’ gifts or championship games. The possibilities are endless. Once designed, your ball will arrive in 4-5 weeks. Launch date: December 2008.
