The Gilbert Rugby Training Ball GTR4000 came onto the scene in late 2016 to replace the popular Gilbert Zenon ball. While maintaining many of the values and strengths related to the Zenon ball, its major upgrade lies in the improved grip configuration.
The new textured TRI grip technology gives the player a better grip and allows for an easier catch, as more of the surface area is in contact with the hand. The pattern is now more defined and is harder to wear than the Zenon ball. Plus, the HYDRATEC waterproof laminated layers are designed to enhance the life and performance of the ball. With the classic four-panel design with hand stitching, it’s finished with Gilbert branding for a great look.
The ball is available in 3 colours red, blue, and black in size 5.

The Control-A-Ball Gilbert rugby balls are my favourite rugby training aid. The pack contains 5 different types of size 5 Glibert rugby balls, with each offering a different challenge to your players. These are designed to improve player skills, especially passing, and catching. It is proven that using various types of rugby balls can improve the players awareness and skill sets.
The Control-A-Ball concept was developed with the Springbok coach, Richie Gray. The rugby coaching balls are all the same colour - green and black, so it isn't obvious which ball is being used, so the skill levels are tested to the maximum levels. Great fun and a brilliant training ball to develop players, while a coach can use their skills to create quality and enjoyable training sessions. This pack of 5 Control-A-Ball Gilbert rugby balls also includes 6 drills as a suggestion to get the ball rolling.
The pack contains:1 x Match rugby ball - This has the normal grip you would expect from a Gilbert rugby ball 1 x Heavyweight rugby ball - which weighs around 650g and allows players to adapt their catching and passing skills 1 x Lightweight rugby ball - which weighs around 300g and allows a player to develop their catching and pasisng skills, if used alongside the heavyweight ball. 1 x Gripless rugby ball which has a smooth outer layer, making passing and catching more difficult when wet or slippy 1 x Unstable rugby ball is filled with a small amount of water to make the ball unstable through the air.
The unstable rugby ball has to be filled with 280g of water, which is approximately 200 ml. To do this, unscrew the end of the pump and carefully fill it with 200 ml of water, then put your finger over the needle to stop it from draining out. Put the top back on and insert the needle into the ball. When you inflate the ball, the water is transferred into the inner bladder.
