can any of you remember those. You kicked them and they moved in all directions, not condusive to good football but they were interesting if you played in goal during a kick about.

When at school we could only use those cheap plastic ones which moved about alot and also the full size foam footballs that ended up weighing about 2 stone if it rained.

Why would you want to stand on one? Unless you couldn't trap it properly? ;)
