Football, has panels with recessed regions in form of holes, embossed areas or grooves

摘要

At least one panel (12) includes at least one region (15, 16) which is recessed with respect to the ball surface. This region can be a softly glowing hole (18A) with a circular or non-circular shape, a sharply profiled hole with a circular or non-circular shape, one or more embossed areas which can form a logo or optionally discontinuous grooves (18B). These regions can be arranged in geometric patterns such as circles, ovals, curves or adjoining or separate polygonal shapes. The recesses can have different shapes, depths, widths, diameters or sizes and are located at a distance from any stitched or glued seams (14).
