What ruling are you after? In my opinion, the definitions of CARRYING and POSSESSING are crystal clear this year.

Does the ball stay in the same relative position to the robot when the robot moves or changes orientation (e.g. backs up or spins)? If so, you are POSSESSING this ball.

If you are POSSESSING the ball, is it also not in contact with the FIELD? If so, you are CARRYING this ball.
