Officially to be revealed on 4 December by FIFA and Adidas in the World Cup draw, this is Adidas Jabulani, the ball, which will be used in the World Cup 2010 in South Africa.
Jabulani means "rejoice", "to celebrate" in Zulu language. There's a story involved with the colours on the ball and the number 11.
There will be three main colours, as seen, yellow, black and white. But in total there will be 11 different colours and as we all know there are 11 players in one team. 11 is also the number of different languages spoken in South Africa.
As every new ball, this has also been improved a lot by technology. Jabulani will suit both, the goalkeepers and the outfield players, as it has a perfect round figure, offering great accuracy on striking and a stable flight. It also has extra grip.
