Re: Maintaining Ball Size at Competition

I haven't bothered to investigate the ball with.without the cover, but I imagine the cover will do the job of keeping the ball within 2-3 inches of the recorded diameter and within 1oz of estimated weight. However, one little thing teams overlook every year is dealing with changing conditions of gamepieces throughout the event. Don't rely on the field staff to get every ball to work with your machine (they have more important things to do), engineer a robot that makes the change not matter.
