Soccer Ball on the Grass Coloring Page

Sometimes the simplest page is the one that gets printed most, and this is that page. A single ball sits in the middle of the sheet, drawn big enough to almost touch the side margins, with its full panel layout marked out: a ring of pentagons around a central one, hexagons filling the gaps between them, and the panels compressing toward the edges the way they really do on a curved surface. Every panel is a separate closed shape, which makes this an ideal sheet for practicing a pattern. Fill only the pentagons and leave the hexagons white for the classic look, or run a color sequence around the ball for something entirely your own. A tuft of grass grows across the bottom of the ball in fine upright blades, anchoring it to the ground, and a soft shadow line sits underneath. Beyond that tuft the sheet carries no scenery whatsoever. It prints cleanly at any size and works equally well as a quick activity or as a template for a team poster.
