Two distinctive features make the XFL’s official football stand apart from any in sports.

The XFL game ball comes in eight custom looks to match each team’s primary color scheme and is distinguished by the following:

The points of each football are wrapped with ‘X’ marks in white and the team’s primary color . This design allows receivers to track the ball easily.

Patent-pending, “X-Pebble” grip technology will help players control the ball with a feel that enables a tight spin on throws, and also allows ball carriers to enhance their ball security.

The XFL spent the past year developing the game ball with football manufacturer Team Issue in Dallas. The first version was tested with players on the field during the XFL’s rules testing this past spring.
