I have a grande total of, wait for it... 1 soccer ball, and it came with my
Brickfest '04 set.

At your convenience, of course :)


Or someone who owns a soccer ball could measure it and publish the size.

Most craft stores sell a selection of little wooden balls. It might be cheaper
to buy a few about the right size rather than paying to mail genuine Lego ones?
Of course, I'm not a purist :) Would a wooden ball start to infect the rest of
the contraption's Lego parts I wonder .....

Sure enough, that'll happen.  What about the sawdust envy that LEGO soccer balls

This post will be overkill I am sure but this Bricklink store sells has 42
soccer balls $.10 US a piece
