In all reality it does not completely. I am not worried about the ball hitting the wheels as I can always ramp up the shooter motors in reverse for a bit longer but I do think it will hold the ball adequately enough. I am not adverse however to be a better securing system I am just trying to figure out the least obtrusive way to implement it without adding more unneeded complexity or changing the form factor dramatically.
