PRESS RELEASE - Issued August 10th, 2006
Molten’s ACENTEC Vantaggio now Middlesex County Football League’s recommended match ball
The world class Molten ACENTEC Vantaggio football is the new, recommended match ball of the Middlesex County Football League. The FIFA APPROVED Molten ball has cross-fusion bonding, an enhanced multi-layer architecture, an optimized panel construction and a Molten grade latex bladder. It is to be the League’s officially recommended choice for this 2006/7 season.
Bob Hope, chairman of Molten Sports, commented:
“We are delighted to announce our association with the Middlesex County Football League. The Molten ACENTEC Vantaggio match ball is probably the world’s best football. It is approved by FIFA and used in many high profile world competitions. Players love it because of its smooth seamless surface and zero water absorbency.
“Our agreement with the Middlesex County Football League follows fast on the heels of similar deals with the Spartan South Midlands Football League and Kent Football League, from whom we are already receiving much positive feedback. We expect that, once word is out about the superior quality of the Molten ACENTEC Vantaggio ball, Molten’s reputation as a quality football brand is going to grow and grow.”
Stephen Hosmer, general secretary of the Middlesex County Football League added:
“We are very pleased Molten has agreed to be associated with our League. The Molten ACENTEC Vantaggio is an outstanding ball and we believe the teams in the League will appreciate the unique control and accuracy it will give them when playing with it.
“After teams have played their first few games, the Middlesex County Football League is looking forward to receiving good reports from its clubs regarding the performance of the new match ball.”

NOTES FOR EDITORS
Molten ACENTEC Vantaggio Football
Launched just over a year ago, the FIFA APPROVED, Molten ACENTEC Vantaggio soccer ball has turned the soccer world upside down with its new patented technology which pushes the limits of precision.
ACENTEC is an acronym for Accuracy Enhancing Technology, a new technology which replaces traditional hand-sewing with a cross-fusion bonding technique, eliminating quality variations. The result is a smooth, seamless and even surface with constant and consistent pressure to all 32 panels of the ball, making for a rounder ball, a smoother surface and perfect balance. This means the ACENTEC Vantaggio goes where the player wants it to go with minimum absorbency and maximum abrasion resistance. It gives increased accuracy of 220% (when compared with other FIFA APPROVED hand-sewn soccer balls) because of its smooth, round and even surface, as well as perfect control even in wet weather, because of its low water absorption (just one fifth of other FIFA APPROVED hand-sewn soccer balls).
The Molten ACENTEC Vantaggio is used by many European clubs including A.C. Chievo Verona in Italy and FSV Mainz 05 and Alemannia Aachen in Germany to name but a few.
