It sort of depends whee the hole is and whether it's ripped or just given out with age, but don't panic I'm sure it can be patched.  Can you get a pic?

Hello and welcome, by the way!  :)

It's hard to see the hole under the arm because of the glue, but for the other holes/splits at least you should be OK with superglue.  Several members have used superglue with good results, but make sure you get the right superglue that's OK for rubber, otherwise it could damage the skin.  I believe one of the stores on here does the right one if you're not sure.  :)
