A '''Soccer Ball''', also called a '''Football''', is the main focus of the games ''[[Super Mario Strikers]]'' and ''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]'', and is based off of {{wp|Ball (association football)|regulation balls}}. In these games, players have to gain control of the Soccer Ball and kick it into the goal, something done with either normal kicks, charge shots, [[Super Strike]]s (''Super Mario Strikers''), [[Mega Strike]]s (''Mario Strikers Charged''), or [[Skillshot]]s. A normal kick, a charged shot, and a Skillshot result in one point; a Super Strike will score a player two, while a Mega Strike can offer up to six for a team.

In ''Mario Strikers Charged'', the soccerSoccer ballBall is made out of metal, which emits a light that indicates the power of the ball. The ball tends to emit a purple light when unused. In this case, shooting the ball results in making a failed score. However, charging the ball by passing or charging the shot, players can turn the light into red, yellow and white, the last indicating the ball is charged enough to make an accurate goal.
 
Apparently, if pressed hard enough, the ball willmay explode. This is seen in one of [[Wario]]'s losing cut-scenes, in which he saysangrily "Isqueezes hatethe you!ball Iuntil hateit you! Stupid... *ballsuddenly explodes on him* ball."

====''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''====
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', the Soccer Ball appears as an item, appearing with its design from ''Super Mario Strikers''. This item cannot be grabbed, however, and to use it, it must be attacked, which will send it flying as it catches on fire and propels across the stage. The soccer ball does not follow an arc when it is attacked. Rather, it will shoot off in a straight line before suddenly losing all momentum and dropping to the ground, or off the stage. If it hits anyone in mid-air, they will be flung away. It is also a trophy that can be randomly unlocked.

|''A strong attack on a soccer ball will set it on fire, and any enemies hit will go flying from the impact. Depending on how you hit it, the ball will fly in different directions. Luckily, no one has to retrieve it if you sent it off the stage&ndash;this ball will return to the battlefield for some time.''
|''Attack a football to ignite it and send it blazing through the air into any hapless foe in its path. The direction it goes in depends on how you attack the ball, so put some thought into it to cause some devastating effects. The ball comes back if you miss, so try as many times as you need to!''
