Making Basketball Easier.
TACHIKARA EASY 5 is a size 5 basketball designed specifically for young beginners, featuring a weight approximately 15% lighter than a standard size 5 basketball.
The shot doesn't quite reach the rim.
The dribble won't stay under control.
A ball that feels too heavy causes proper shooting form to break down.
EASY 5 was created to reduce these common frustrations and help young players experience the joy of success from their very first steps in basketball.
While maintaining the same dimensions as a standard size 5 basketball, EASY 5 reduces the weight by approximately 15%. This makes it easier for preschoolers and elementary school players whose arm and grip strength are still developing to practice shooting and dribbling with proper mechanics and confidence.
A lighter ball is easier to control.
Better control makes practice more enjoyable.
And when practice is fun, players naturally fall in love with the game.
EASY 5 is designed to create that positive cycle and serve as the perfect first basketball.
Constructed with durable rubber, EASY 5 can be used in a wide variety of environments, including parks, school playgrounds, and outdoor courts. Through daily play and practice, it encourages young players to spend more time with a basketball in their hands while developing the fundamental skills that will support their future growth.
For children, a first basketball is more than just a ball.
We hope EASY 5 becomes a memorable "My First Basketball" for the next generation of ballers.
