The NEW Gilbert Sirius Elite Match Rugby Ball is the best ball available and is used in most international and pro-club matches. The ball was first introduced in 2018, so players could practice with and get used to the new ball by the time the RWC 2019 came around. The Gilbert Sirius has some of the features from their previous elite ball, the Match XV. Having said that, this ball handles well and is visually striking.
The Sirius rugby ball conforms to World Rugby specifications, uses the latest Reaction Laminate construction, and uses the highest-spec G-XV rubber compound surface. The Copolymer 'Air-Loc' bladder is still the best you can get and helps retain air for longer as it also uses the Ellipse Truflight Valve.
This Gilbert match ball is only available in size 5 and is carefully hand-stitched. The Elite balls are also Pre-Kicked to ensure they are fully match-ready. The Hypernova grip gives the player better control, with improved catching and passing properties.
This Gilbert Match ball is normally ordered in as required, and delivery is 3 to 5 days.
