This one:

3.2.3.4 G12

An ALLIANCE may not POSSESS their opponent's BALLS. The following criteria define POSSESSION :

A. “carrying” (moving while supporting BALLS in or on the ROBOT),
B. “herding” (repeated pushing or bumping),
C. “launching” (impelling BALLS to a desired location or direction), and
D. “trapping” (overt isolation or holding one or more BALLS against a FIELD element or ROBOT in an attempt to shield them).

Violation: TECHNICAL FOUL per instance.

So if you release the ball right away and do not drive with it in you (prevent A) and you do not throw the ball far and just roll it/pop it out (prevent C) then you should be fine
