Standard for ball handoff?

It occurs to me that smooth handoff from one robot to another will be important to get quick cycle times (and high scores). To avoid time spent chasing the ball around on the carpet, it seems like it might be handy to have some general approach to ball handoff.

For instance, if many/most bots can place balls in the low goal, then making sure you can also accept balls around 7" high would allow easy low handoff.

A throw/catch handoff would be much harder to standardize, but might be worth some discussion.

Thoughts?
