Soccer Balls

Abstract
The paper presents variations on the soccer ball: from the standard
truncated icosahedron to hyperbolic soccer balls. For the latter,
proposed by Keith Henderson, shapes are given with vertices on a
hyperboloid of one sheet. Also, soccer balls can be stacked in
DNA-like spirals, which can be executed with Zome tool---an inspiration
for an artwork in countries with soccer in their genes?
