On the day of the Final Draw for the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa?, the official ball for the competition has been unveiled. The adidas Jabulani, which means to celebrate in isiZulu, is the 11th edition of adidas's FIFA World Cup balls. <br/> <br/>The 11 colours that are present on the Jabulani pay tribute to both football and the country in which Africas first-ever FIFA World Cup will be held. They represent a colour for each team player, every official South African language and for each of the 11 South African communities that will welcome the world next year. The design celebrates two of the most important facets of the South African nation - diversity and harmony - as it is these principles that make it such a colourful and welcoming nation. <br/> <br/>Grip 'n' groove <br/>Jabulani ushers in some major advances in football technology.
