Why should you have it?
Well, the reason why they are used for is to inflate your ball, but you can do that also with other accessories. What is the beauty of this product? I think the best thing about it is that they are small, easy to store and easy to move around. If you imagine a big & heavy air compressor which also it isn’t so easy to set up you know what I have in mind.
Do you know that in soccer ball has to be a certain amount of air pressure? If there is not then they may happen some unwanted problems as the irregular shape of the ball and rapid deflation. Following previous instructions, we have one more thing why they are good. Some of the soccer ball pumps have also the pressure gauge, so you can see when is the right air pressure.

Types
We can find them many which are made by different brands, but generally, we divide them into 4 groups which are:
- Soccer ball pumps
- Electric soccer ball pumps
- Soccer ball pumps with pressure gauge
- Electric soccer ball pump with pressure gauge
Wondering which one is best for you? This depends on you, what you like and what you will use it for. If you have to inflate a lot of balls I strongly recommend the last type with which it will be the easiest for you to inflate lots of balls. However, the easiest way is with an electric type, so I would personally pick that type.
What should you consider?
What you should be careful when buying are the needles. You need them to inflate a ball, so be careful when buying. Some of them have needles included in the package, some of them not.
There is another thing that you should take into account when inflating the ball and this is that you hold the needle, so you keep it from moving, otherwise you may damage your ball or ball pump.
I also had a pump which had a needle already attached to it and because I wasn’t paying attention to the needle while inflating it broke after some time.
