Sherrin SDNR 2024 Replica Game Ball 

Product Description
To celebrate the Sir Doug Nicholls Rounds in season 2024, Sherrin is proud to feature 'Koethuka Kakur' on this year’s footballs. Koethuka Kakur (pronounced koi - thika kakurrr with a rolling r) is the name for 'ball' in Kalaw Kawaw Ya dialect which is used in the top Western Torres Strait islands of Dauan, Sabai and Seisia communities.  

Designed by Ben Nabea Davis - a proud Torres Strait Islander artist from Saibai and Waiben Island, the design of the Sir Doug Nicholls Round ball tells the story of connection through our game. Connection that reaches through time and out to all walks of life. It speaks about the indigenous men and women of our game before us who helped build it to where it is, and how through their struggles they have now given us a platform to stand on. It also represents how our generation will one day pass on leadership to our future generation.

This Split-leather footy is great for junior players learning the game. Featuring a softer more natural feel to the ball this football offers greater control for players of all skill levels.

Features & Specs:
Size 5 (suitable for males aged 15 & over)
Made from imported split-grain leather
Training ball quality

MARNGROOK PATTERN
The white spiral pattern that looks like a circle represents the ball used for marngrook. It pays homage to the indigenous people that played this game many years ago. The skills our ancestors developed over so many years are now put on display for the world to see.

GENERATIONS
This symbolizes the connection each generation has to each other.
The pattern used to represent each generation is a coconut leave woven together. This is commonly used on the islands for baskets and many other things. I believe this to be a perfect symbol as the first leave is connected to the last much like our ancestors are connected to us today.
