I have not seen very many Houston teams sign-up, so please sign up soon so we can plan for food and space resources.

Do you have any video of the shooter in action? It looks like it can toss an Orbit Ball pretty far!

lyncaWe are running in low speed shooting mode. Our max range is 8-10 feet but we don't expect to shoot that far in a match unless its a last second desperation shot.
