hi,we r playing our u14 county semi final tonight under lights and we have been told the lights at the field aren't the best....is there a regulation yellow sliotar that can be used as our goalkeeper is very nervous about the high ball. Been the captain of the team i want to be as prepared as possible.The field is staker wallaces in co limerick does anyone know how good or bad the lighting is? thanks>>>
