Game pieces:

Even though i liked working with the softballs this year..
they tended to get stuck in odd places inside the robot because of their protruding laces. they would fit in some places but not others because the laces caused their diameter to enlarge.

For example, our robot had a channel down the middle for the softballs, most of the time they went down no problem, but if the softball went down just right, it would get stuck because of the laces.

I would recommend a uniform ball such as a raquetball. But then again the softballs might have been easier to pick up because of their laces..
