Question 1

Samaritans Purse shoe box:  What size will fit in there (3,4 or 5) and still leave room for some markers and toothbrush?

Accepted Answer

ANY IF THEM. I've been doing it for a couple of years or so now...DEFLATE the ball (I inflate them first to check them), put the pump on the side, and you will be able to fit a few other items. For the size 5, I put a couple of softer or less wide items in the fold of the deflated ball, such as socks and/or a toothbrush, then I add a few small items along the edges (please remember the ball is round, so there are gaps at the edges). I'd have to go back and check my notes from last year's boxes but, for example, a Casio folding calculator is a good fit. I admit it is difficult to get in a filled pencil pouch with the size 5, but, with the school supplies put in separately and the pouch simply folded or rolled up, you can get in a small pair of school scissors, a few mechanical or regular pencils, a highlighter, a SMALL pencil sharpener, 2 black pens, a blue pen and a red pen...and I've gotten in a roll of tape. IF you use the VERY small ones, you can get in a flashlight, even a SMALL crank one such as Coghlans.

With the smaller balls I've been able to get in a few more items, such as a spork (carefully so no pointed ends face the ball). Now, granted, I've never put a tshirt in with one, but, with the smaller balls such as size 3 (which I don't send, I stick to the 4 and 5 sizes)....maybe. You won't get in a mess kit BUT you MIGHT be able to get in a collapsible silicon cup.
I pick and choose according to the size of the ball.

Question 2

Does it come deflated?

Accepted Answer

Hi, yes the ball is deflated and we include a hand pump for easy inflation. If you need additional assistance, please use our seller page.

Question 3

How big deflated? will ball and pump for in a large shoebox? i want to send to a child for operation christmas child.

Accepted Answer

When deflated, the size 3 classic soccer ball measures a length of 10" with a maximum width of 6.5" that is able to compress smaller. These will comfortably fit within the dimensions of an Operation Christmas Child shoebox with a pump and room for other small gifts.

Question 4

is there any writing on the ball?

Accepted Answer

Hi,

We kept our branding minimal so each ball has our GoSports logo printed just once as seen in the photos.
