Dawson Balls Mark 3 – Primary Colours now WCF approved *Update April 2024*
Paul has been testing various ways of differentiating the new balls from the old ones. His long term plan will be make new moulds, but this will take time. Therefore, in the interim, the new balls will have a black circle marked inside the Dawson 2000 lettering. This black circle is drawn into the indented circle and so should last some time. Clubs are advised to monitor the marking and re-do it as necessary.
The secondary colours are currently in England being tested.
