The air pressure of a soccer ball is an important factor in how the ball behaves and performs. The optimal air pressure for a soccer ball is 0.6 to 0.7 atmospheres (8.5-10.3 psi). A soccer ball that is overinflated or underinflated will not perform as well as a soccer ball that is properly filled. The pressure of a soccer ball should also be checked before each game or training session to ensure it is within the ideal range. The air pressure of a soccer ball can be easily adjusted with a pump or air pressure gauge.
