Time does not matter, so if your "tether" poses a risk of entanglement, it will be disallowed. Also, you are not allowed to use the ball in the kit as part of your robot(too easy to confuse it with an actual game ball - Rule K1 Update in Update #1), so you would have to use one of the balls already on the field, which means, since it's not an actual part of your robot, the ball touching would not count.
