It has been designed using the traditional Gilbert Rugby colours, with the famous Gilbert oval trims.

Taking its name after the brightest star in the sky, visible from both the Southern and Northern hemispheres, the ball represents the coming together of the best rugby players from across the globe. Sirius is also the 7th closest star from planet Earth, representing the 7th generation of Gilbert RWC match balls. This ball is perfect in cold, wet conditions due to a grip pattern which includes two star shaped pimples of different heights to increase grip.

Sirius also has an ‘air-loc’ bladder to ensure the ball remains inflated for the maximum amount of time possible.
