Abstract/Contents:"The rebound resilience values (rebound heights) of 17 types of football dropped on to concrete and natural turf were recorded for inflation pressures between 0.6 and 1.1 bar. On concrete, as expected, the rebound resilience of individual footballs increased with increasing pressure. However, the relationship between rebound resilience and inflation pressure was complicated for natural turf because of the mechanical variability of the surface layer. On both concrete and natural turf, the inflation pressure was found to be much less important than the type of football used. For instance, rebound resilience on concrete was found to vary on average by 5.1% over the range of inflation pressures for individual footballs but at each pressure rebound heights varied by approximately 14% between different footballs. On natural turf, the mean rebound resilience vlues of 30 measurements per football over the range of permissible pressures varied by 10.5%. Howver, the mean rebound resilience values for all footballs at each pressure differed by only 0.7%."
