Ball Dryer Solutions for College Equipment Managers.
Real‑Time Football Preservation for Sweat, Rain, Snow & Everyday Operations.
College football demands precision — and nothing disrupts consistency faster than wet, sweaty, heavy, or slick footballs. Towels can’t keep up.
The Ball Dryer gives college equipment staffs a reliable, repeatable way to keep footballs dry, tacky, and game‑ready in every environment.
Multiple Uses for College Football Programs
College equipment managers across the country use the Ball Dryer for a wide range of daily challenges:
Sweat Management
Hot + humid days = sweaty, heavy, slick footballs. The Ball Dryer eliminates this issue in seconds.
Rain & Snow (Practices + Games)
Dry footballs fast and keep them in rotation during poor weather. Use in real time to prevent saturation and waterlogging.
Football Conditioning / Prep
Heat guns are mundane and time consuming. They can get too hot damaging leather, bladders and the user. The Ball Dryer provides hands‑free, set‑it‑and‑forget‑it drying for softer leather and better overall ball feel and performance. The Ball Dryer is set at a perfect 120 degrees with a :60 second automatic shut off timer to prevent overheating and damage.
Wet Ball Drills
Bring footballs back to life fast after intentional wet‑ball periods.
Game Day (Off Sideline / Out of View)
Many college equipment staffs have found creative, compliant ways to use the Ball Dryer on game day without violating any rules or even being seen. We are impressed every year at the creativity of college EQ managers ability to use the Ball Dryer during games.
How College Programs Use the Ball Dryer
Pregame

Easton Berrett: E.M., C. College of Idaho Football / Head of Equipment
The College of Idaho Equipment Staff have been very fortunate to have such a great product. The CY Ball Dryer has saved us so much money by prolonging the life of footballs and reducing the amount of footballs that are ruined due to wet weather. Footballs are expensive! Every ball saved adds up. Our quarterbacks, centers, receivers, and coaches love the ball dryer on rainy days, because we can keep the balls dry and reduce the amount of drops, fumbles, and bad snaps. Not only do we love the product, but Ball Dryer has been a great company to work with, providing great customer service, and showing that they truly care about our program. Every college football program should have a Ball Dryer!
