Being at kickoff, I remember counting 12 balls in the actual goal. But there are many factor that will affect balls counted in the goal.
First of all , not all the balls are inflated to the max. size, therefore different combination of different sizes balls will have a different toal volume of space occupied. Second, when people shaked the goal around with balls in, they actually managed to free some more space for one or two balls. Third, as Joe said, the balls are not a perfect sphere, and so stacking them in different ways can yield a different formation of balls. But then again, these factors might to small enough to not have any measurable effects. A word of advice is to try a lot of different situation and formation and see what happens. But most important is to similate how your robot put balls in too see how much it can put in.
