I also think that the gaffing tape used to line the field might be leaving some residue on the balls, so this issue can't be completely avoidable. It's all a matter of checking for anything obstructive on the balls before the match. I encourage every team and volunteer to double check for things like this before the match, and notify someone before any problems arise. Otherwise we will need to gather up some 2006 pokey pokey sticks as Travis Hoffman mentioned earlier
