One of the first objects the gripper picked up in the video was a hemisphere. So the shape shouldn't be a problem. You might have to have a much larger gripper to have a workable size ratio with respect to the ball.
For our application a much more important question would be "Why use use this 'universal gripper' to pick up a single ball?" Usually, if we have small objects we need to handle many of them. I don't see any team picking up more than 8 or 9 in a match with this method, unless they do some pretty fancy automation. uh oh
