It's actually in the path of the ball during hurdling, but we've used a flexible rod so that gets deflected out during the launch.
We'll see whether it conforms to a "hard mount" specification.
Worst case we can adapt the holder to a pivot arangement that will move out of the way of the ball after the game starts.
