Agree. Degraded and soft are examples of what the referee or group consensus in non-officiated play should determine in addition to cracked and broken.

Although it makes sense that any ball that isn't functioning as it should could be replaced when a player brings it to a referee or opponent (soft, cracked, out of round). No harm in making the rule more general (degraded or damaged?)

I agree that the rules should address the criteria for replacing a degraded ball - player consensus.

Agree. This seems reasonable. But perhaps instead of "degraded, soft, broken, or cracked," simply say "degraded," which could in essence, cover everything.

I agree. Some tournaments use balls for too many matches and their performance degrades. Is it possible to replace the balls after, say, 4-5 hours of play? For double elimination brackets does it make sense to start both medal matches with new balls? How often are balls replaced when the pros play?
