Foam balls - like those used in many Nerf toys - can be launched pretty quickly, yet won't hurt much if a shot goes wrong. But those are probably too easily obtained and frequently stocked to be used as a FIRST game piece
What says they have to be shot though? What if they are going to be fed into a bucket of some sort instead of a goal on a wall.
