Why is no one using this method to throw?

All the videos I'm seeing of what other teams have come up with for prototypes this early are all throwing via catapults or the similar.


I'm curious as to why no one is 'kicking' or 'punching' the ball. Wouldn't the ball act as a spring on itself and launch itself fairly quickly and far?
