How many panels are on a Football?

Answer 1

It can be different on different footballs, but official balls have 32 leather panels held together by 642 stitches. Some recent footballs designed to increase passing and shooting speed have only 2 big panels, like a tennis ball, but made of microfiber. They are REALLY good for playing, mainly on synthetic grass fields. We have many of these here in Brazil and they are fun to play on.
