Re: "Heading" balls?

POSSESSION: Controlling the position and movement of a BALL. A BALL shall be considered in POSSESSION if, as the ROBOT moves or changes orientation (e.g. backs up or spins in place), the BALL remains in approximately the same position relative to the ROBOT

like i said you are not in possession of the ball becuase even if the ball is not touching the ground the ball can be moving while you are stationary so it is in a different position relative to the robots position(i.e. the ball does not remain in approximately the same position relative to the ROBOT)
