Plug & Play Football Puzzle – with 24 ways to build your ball.

This wonderful little ball needs to be built, but there are so many ways to start. There are 7 puzzle pieces on the ball which include a starting piece made from two hexagons and six made from three hexagons. But watch out! Moving the small starting piece during the game will get you a red card.
