I think it might actually be better if you can wedge them on the sides of the goal. You can certainly fit a lot more "in/on the goal" this way. Since no one is playing defense, there is no reason to think they would be removed. Some issues are if the goal tips over or if they rub against the counter-weight while the goal is balance on the bridge.

: Hey, My school built the goal exactly to size and we noticed that we couldn't push the balls through the sides. Has anyone else seen this? i see they show in the manual "The Game" a robot pushing a ball through the sides. has anyone done this?
