TOTAL RUGBY - GILBERT BALL MAKING

Total Rugby visits the Gilbert headquarters in
England. We see the ball has developed over time ever since William Webb Ellis first decided, with a fine disregard for the rules of football, to pick the ball up and run! We also see how modern-day balls are fine-tuned with practical testing by former England fly-half Paul Grayson.

Gilbert makes the best rugby balls, albeit expensive ones...

@ted5529608 you could. but like the guy said below, it won't be the same. Rugby balls are bigger than footballs and rounder at the ends, makes the bounce of the ball more unpredictable
