PUMA Orbita Ultimate - The Official Ball of the Premier League
The PUMA Orbita Ultimate PL, the official match ball of the 2025/26 Premier League season, is here.
The new ball will make its first official appearance this July in the Premier League Summer Series in the USA, offering a global audience a first look at the ball that will be used in the world’s most-watched league next season, which kicks off on the weekend of 16 August.
The PUMA Orbita Ultimate PL features 12 evenly sized panels that ensure precise weight distribution, keeping the ball perfectly balanced. Its high-frequency moulding guarantees long-lasting durability with enlarged and deeper seams to improve aerodynamics and shape retention.
'Have a Ball'
The partnership between the Premier League and PUMA kicks off with the “Have a Ball” campaign, which aims to encourage players at all levels to play with confidence and celebrate the joy of having the ball at their feet.
As part of the long-term partnership, the Premier League and PUMA will support grassroots football through Premier League Kicks, along with girls and women’s grassroot initiatives, international community activations and No Room For Racism.
Will Brass, Chief Commercial Officer at the Premier League, said: “The launch of the new ball, which will be seen in play for the first time during the Premier League Summer Series, marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter. We are thrilled to welcome PUMA as a key partner in our efforts to enhance the Premier League, both on and off the pitch. We can’t wait to see the ball in action, delivering unforgettable goals and moments for players and fans alike.”
Richard Teyssier, Vice President Brand & Marketing – PUMA, added: “By emphasising the emotional and liberating aspects of playing football, the ‘Have a Ball’ campaign highlights how the simple act of just having the ball can bring immense joy and excitement. On average, a professional footballer has control of the ball for around 109 seconds every game, so when you have the ball at your feet you need to make it count and create moments that make a difference on the pitch. We are proud to have some of the best players in the world creating magic moments on the pitch using the new ball. PUMA is committed to elite performance and product, something evident as a result of our new partnership.”
During the Summer Series there will also be community coaching programmes in all three cities – New Jersey, Chicago, and Atlanta - to support the development and accessibility of football in local communities. The activations will also include in-store events at the PUMA New York City flagship store.
