The Jabulani is the official match ball for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. The ball, created by sports manufacturer Adidas, was developed at Loughborough University in the United Kingdom, and was unveiled in Cape Town, South Africa on December 4, 2009. The word "jabulani" means "rejoice" or "bring joy and happiness" in Zulu. A gold colour version titled Jo'bulani is set for play in the World Cup Final, and an orange-colour version Jabulani Powerorange is for snow games.
The ball was also used as the match ball of 2009 FIFA Club World Cup in the United Arab Emirates, and a special version of the ball, the Jabulani Angola, was the match ball of the 2010 African Cup of Nations. This ball was also used in the 2010 Clausura Tournament of Argentina as well as the 2010 MLS season in the USA and Canada in the league's colours of blue and green and will be used in the 2010–11 Bundesliga.
